XXL magazines latest issue features Eminem as the cover artist, who spoke on the topic of Asher Roth in his interview.

While stating he hasnt really gotten a chance to sit down and thoroughly listen to the Pennsylvania emcee, Em did acknowledge the whispers of their supposed comparisons. There was talk about people saying he sounded like me, and he was doing this and that and, you know, trying to take what I do and do itThe stuff that I've heard from him honestly, which certainly isn't enough for me to make my own opinion and say, 'Yeah, he does sound like me' or 'No, he doesn't.' But the couple of songs I've heard, I don't really think he does. You know what I mean?

Showing admiration for the up-and-comer rapper, Eminem had nothing but love. He's doing his own thing. I can respect it, too, because at the end of the day, I think he's dope.
