Superstar producer, Just Blaze, has been busy with DJing and producing, but the project he seems most excited about is producing Eminem’s new album, MTV News reports.

Blaze has been working with Jay Electronica and Eminem as well as DJing at the hottest parties like the Winter Music Conference and at club Grand Central during the Fool’s Gold party in Miami, where he spun a two-hour set.

“I’m working on Eminem’s album still, so I’ve gotta hurry up and get back to Detroit,” Just said. He was fresh off the turntables at club Grand Central during the Fool’s Gold party in Miami, where he spun a two-hour house set. “I’ve been back and forth — Detroit, New York, Detroit, New York, Miami, back to Detroit — for like the past two and a half weeks. [The album], it’s getting there, but we still got a lot of work. So I wish I could stay [in Miami] longer,” he said.

The 32-year-old promises to keep tight-lipped about Em’s new album, but is already calling it a classic and believes, after much struggle, Eminem is back on his A-game. He had much to rave about.

“As far as what’s going on in Detroit, a lot of good music is being made,” Blaze said of Em. “He’s really back spitting. The wordplay is crazy, the metaphors are crazy. He’s really back on his game. He had his ups, he had his downs, he’s back way, way, way up. This is definitely going to be up there with the best of his albums, for sure, for sure. The fact that he’s branched out working with a lot of different people now, collaborating in a lot of different ways that he never has before, I think he’s going to surprise a lot of people,” said Blaze.

Other than Slim Shady, Blaze is working with rapper Jay Electronica – but there may be talks about the producer linking up with an even bigger Jay: Jay-Z. Blaze says he talked to Young Hova right before the U.S. leg of his tour ended for Blueprint 3.

“Maybe,” he told MTV News, with a sly grin about whether or not he and the legendary rapper would collaborate again. “You never know.” Chanel

Eminem’s new album will be much more “emotionally driven” than the first Relapse, MTV news reports.

“[The album] is gonna be a lot different than people expect,” Eminem said in an interview on his Shade 45 satellite-radio station, “The last record I made, I think I was concentrating more on spitting. On this album, I feel like there’s some of that, but I went back to songs with [feelings] to them as opposed to just rap records.”

Eminem said in the interview that he’s working with artists Just Blaze and D12’s Mr. Porter. Just Blaze is known more famously as a major DJ in the music industry, but is reportedly rapping on several tracks on Relapse 2.

“We are working on Relapse 2 pretty heavily. As of yesterday, we’ve done about six or seven records,” Blaze said in an interview with Distortion 2 Static.

Eminem also addressed rumours of an upcoming tour: “It just kind of worked out this way, where I wanted to fall back from live performances for right now and concentrate on making the best music I could make. After this record comes out, we’ll see what happens from there.”

Eminem’s latest release, Taking my Ball, possesses a similar tone to many of the songs on the first relapse album, but the leaked track Low, Down is a refreshing flashback of music from Eminem’s first two studio albums.

Taking my Ball, along with several other tracks, will appear on the video game DJ Hero: Renegade Edition.
