Why do the biggest rappers not use Alchemist?

[The Jewnited States]

serious question. what was the last time a MAJOR rapper reached out to alchemist? i'm sure it happens here or there but why isn't he mike will made it status right now?

I don't like whiteboy but I cannot fathom why he doesn't get Al beats. Sh!t is damn near mindboggling.

if you know someone has more money you charge them more money


there no standard rate for sample clearness it negotiated case by case

you think they would charge jay-z the same amount they would curren$y

I always found that strange. Eminem over Alchemist for an entire album sounds like it would be crazy
