Would you ask someone to insult you? Kanye West apparently did just that when he urged CyHi The Prynce to pen an Eminem-inspired Yeezus dis track.

As you may know, Em once killed Dr. Dre on “The Real Slim Shady.” He also put an "AK to his face" on “Criminal.” And throughout his discography, he’s done a few more not-so-friendly things to his mentor. Well, apparently, Kanye liked that dynamic and urged CyHi to follow Slim Shady’s footsteps with his recently-released and since-then-deleted "Elephant In The Room."

"[Kanye] actually gave me the beat and the concept," CyHi told HotNewHipHop in a story published Thursday (Aug. 13). "He said he wanted to do like a Dre/Em feel, and I just felt like addressing the elephant in the room."

What about that Pusha T dis in the song? Apparently, King Push was in the lab for that session as well. The track is “two-to-three years in the making,” according to The Prynce, but it was “just time for it” to drop. It came just as he parted ways with Def Jam, a separation that won’t divide him and Yeezy.

"Personally, I asked for a release from Def Jam, so I did get a release, but it wasn't due to Kanye West it was to due to Def Jam,” he said. "I’m still connected to G.O.O.D. Music but it's almost like a Travi$ Scott situation -- he's not on the same distributor as G.O.O.D. Music but he's still with G.O.O.D. Music."
