Def Jam's Redman recently spoke on his relationship with Eminem and explained what it would take for the two emcees to re-connect for a collaboration track.
Responding to past reports of Em wanting to sign him to Shady Records, Red also explained why he was initially willing to depart Def Jam for the rapper.
"I will f*ck with Shady Records, because they're new, I love Eminem as an artist -- me and Eminem connected a long time ago, and he doing his thing," Red explained in an interview. "And for him to even make a statement, or even have Redman on his mind, like 'Yo, he ain't f*ckin' with Def Jam, bring him on over,' I appreciate it. So my hat's off always to Eminem. If Shady Records woulda picked me up, I would went over there. It wasn't nothin'. At the time when that was goin' on, Def Jam was goin' into they little funk, they didn't know what was going on with that company. And as it is, it's kinda pickin' back up, but the love is not there like it used to be -- it never will be there...Eminem...that's my dude. Besides me going to his house, and we connected in the studio, I've run into him on many occasions. My hat's off to the dude...It's like whatever, man. I guess when the time is right. Eminem know I'm around, I ain't hard to find. Me and his peoples are always in touch. [Paul] Rosenberg and my manager...if I need Em, or really need to get in touch with him, I could do it. Whenever he reach out, "'Yeah. Let's do a song.' So it's nothin'. Paul, what's good, baby?"
