“My Life” – 50 Cent feat. Eminem and Adam Levine

“I met G-Unit A&Rs, Dre Mckenzie and Tony G, back in 2008. I was sending them joints for 50 Cent for a couple years. In 2010, Dre told me to hold two beats that Fif said he wanted to purchase. A couple months later while in NY, I stopped by the G-Unit office and 50 Cent happen to be there. He jumped up from his meeting and pulled me into his office to play the beats and spit his rhymes for me live in person. He also explained the concepts and told me this could be huge.
