Filipino-American rapper Ez Mil has officially signed with the renowned labels Shady Records, Aftermath Entertainment, and Interscope Records.
The signing marks a rare partnership among the three powerhouse labels and EZ Mil into a league shared by only a select few artists.
EZ Mil's musical journey reached new heights with the announcement of his next project, DU4LI7Y: REDUX, set to be released on August 11under Virgin Music.
This deluxe edition of his acclaimed 2022 LP includes a highly anticipated single titled "Realest," featuring none other than Eminem himself.
The collaboration came to fruition after Eminem discovered EZ Mil's music online and subsequently introduced him to the legendary Dr. Dre, leading to this extraordinary co-signing.
Characterized by his distinctive blend of lithe vocals, adept rap skills, and remarkable songwriting prowess, EZ Mil has captivated a dedicated fan base that now includes the likes of Eminem and Dr. Dre.
The journey to this signing began with the release of his single "Up Down" on Virgin Music earlier this year.
Eminem's devoted fans immediately recognized the similarities in their styles, which eventually led to the meeting between EZ Mil and the iconic duo.
The collaboration on "Realest" showcases both artists' rap acrobatics, with razor-sharp multisyllabic rhymes and clever wordplay that exemplify Eminem's legendary status.
With this formidable backing from Eminem, Dr. Dre, and the Shady/Aftermath/Interscope trifecta, EZ Mil is primed to ascend to greater heights in the music industry.
Eminem, known for his deeply personal songwriting and sharp wit, expressed his excitement about this rare signing: "We've never been out there signing a lot of artists, and one of the great things about how we built Shady is how selective we've been. And it's even rarer that Dre and I sign something together - but I heard Ez's music and was like, 'this is really special,' so I took it to Dre. We both agreed it would be a great fit, and we wanted to work with him right on the spot."
Dr. Dre, the pioneer of West Coast hip-hop, shared his enthusiasm for EZ Mil's unique sound: "I'm really only interested in working on shit that sounds different from anything else going on out there, and only then if I feel I can really bring something to it. Em played me Ez, and I had that feeling... that thing that happens when we both know we've found something special. And that was it... let's get to work."
