Rapper Eminem has released a surprise album, Kamikaze, in which he disses some of the other rappers on the scene at the moment.
So the same thing he’s been doing since the start of his career, really.
Also more of the same – the rappers that he dissed got upset and dissed him back. This is what we call “beef”. There is now beef, people.
On Kamikaze, Eminem expresses his disdain for mumble rap – a newish genre of rap that sounds like it’s being filtered through a truckload of Xanax by people whose names start with ‘Lil’.
I can see why people like lilYachty
but not me though
not even dissin’
it just ain’t for me
So that’s Lil Yachty…he also comes for Lil Pump, by parodying Bad and Boujee.
I’m going to stop embarrassing myself and hand you over to this guy for a full breakdown of the diss tracks:
On the album, Eminem also revives his beef with Machine Gun Kelly. After he heard his name dropped on the Kamikaze album, Machine Gun Kelly retaliated with Rap Devil, which you can enjoy below:
That video above is nearing 30 million views in just three days, so I guess being tuned by Eminem is very good for business.
Die Antwoord are also on the receiving end of some jibes in the song Greatest. He says that Ninja and Yolandi (or ¥O-LANDI VI$$ER on Instagram) are ungrateful, which didn’t sit very well with the duo.
They’ve beefed in the past, and now there’s this video with plenty of foul language:

I’m no rapper, but that was utter shite.
