Statlanta

In a 2017 interview with HipHopDX, Stat Quo said that Statlanta was not released through Shady/Aftermath due to an argument he had with Eminem over a song called "Dance on It". Eminem had written a chorus for Stat Quo to perform, but Stat Quo did not think it was good and told Eminem that he would only release the song in exchange for a million dollars. He said this made Eminem "mad as shit". While Stat Quo apologized the next day and the two recorded "Syllables" with Jay-Z, Dr. Dre, 50 Cent, and Cashis, their relationship did not recover: "We did that song right after my long apology. I was like, 'Oh, we cool; he put me on a song with Jay-Z.' But no, he was not cool [with me after that]."^[3]
