Eminem is back and he’s not holding anything back with his new album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce).
On the album, he takes a few shots at Diddy, Ja Rule, Kanye West, and even Lizzo. However, most of the heat is directed at Diddy.
In the track “Antichrist,” Eminem references Cassie’s 2016 assault video from a hotel: “Next idiot ask me is gettin’ his ass beat worse than Diddy did/ But on the real, though/ She prolly ran out the room with his fuckin’ dildo/ He try to field goal punt her, she said to chill/ Now put it back in my ass and get the steel toe.”
Then, on “Fuel,” he raps: “I’m like a R-A-P-E-R/ Got so many S-As, S-As/ Wait, he didn’t just spell the word ‘rapper’ and leave out a P, did he?/ R.I.P., rest in peace Biggie/ And ‘Pac, both of y’all should be living/ But I ain’t tryna beef with him/ ‘Cause he might put a hit on me like Keefe D did him.”
Kanye West wasn’t safe either. On “Bad One,” he took shots at his mental health struggles: “Brain is dead, space cadet/ Like when Ye forgets to take his meds.”
Up next to catch some heat was Ja Rule on “Guilty Conscience 2” where Em rapped: “When I say, ‘Fuck midgets,’ I mean Ja Rule.”
Even Lizzo got caught in the crossfire on “Road Rage,” “Ain’t never really truly over ’til Lizzo sings/ We should coddle fat people, yeah, here’s a concept, let’s celebrate onset/ Diabetes and instead of us dieting we can just have a pie-eating contest.”
This year has seen plenty of sneak disses and digs from various artists, and now Eminem has added his own with these bold and controversial tracks.
