Busta Rhymes Remembers Destructive Reaction To Eminem's "My Name Is"

Busta Rhymes Still Wants A Versuz Battle With Eminem, Remembers Destructive Reaction To Em’s “My Name Is”

Busta Rhymes recently released his widely accepted album ELE2: The Wrath Of God, at the end of October. Since then, he’s re-upped with a Reloaded version and hit the campaign trail, where he went down memory lane with NME.

During the discussion, one of the questions centered around his 2000 “Best Rap Solo Performance” Grammy nomination, which he ultimately lost to Eminem‘s “My Name Is.”

“Em is one of my favorite MCs ever,” praises Busta, reaffirming his desire to face off with Slim Shady in a friendly Verzuz competition. “We’ve done multiple records together and even on his latest album Music to Be Murdered Bym the track ‘Yah Yah’ used my vocals from ‘Woo Hah!! Got You All In Check.’”

“He’s one incredible motherfucker! Wyclef Jean was the first person to play ‘My Name Is’ to me before it was even out. We were on tour together and he had a six-song EP from Eminem. When we played ‘My Name Is’, I could not believe it.”

“I went so crazy on his bus that I shattered his windshield with my head!” he reveals, providing some much-needed context as to why he once decided to ram heads with a mountain goat in the “Break Ya Neck” video.




“I couldn’t believe the shit that Em was saying and Dre’s production was unbelievable. At the time, nothing existed like it in the whole game.”
