Funkmaster Flex has seen them come and he’s seen them go. As part of Eminem week, we reached out to Flex to ask how he was feeling Em’s new work, and he dropped knowledge about how a one-time struggle rapper elevated his game to become a certified rap god. Drop a bomb on this interview.

On what's slept-on about Eminem
"To me, what’s slept-on about Eminem is his ability to adapt. I think people don’t talk about that enough. If you think about it, and if you listen to every one of his albums and the year it came out, it’s not behind. He adapts to what’s going on. His hooks and his guest appearances may change, but lyrically he delivers what you expect.
On why he loves Em's new song "Don't Front"
"Believe it or not, I think my favorite Eminem song for me right now—even though I know it’s a current song and I know it’s on the album if you buy Call of Duty—is 'Don’t Front' with Buckshot, it’s got the 'You Know I Got You Opin' sample.
