Eminem Lashes Out
Share:
It was a matter of time.
While Eminem may not be the first to have a slug at Trump, but if this isn’t the best one we’ve seen yet I don’t know what is. In a four-minute 34-second-long video the famous rapper pulls out all the stops and puts pressure on the right points in this freestyle, that was played at the BET Hip Hop Awards on Tuesday.
Some swearing is involved so viewer discretion is advised.
He talks about Trump’s racism, to the nuclear threats he has levied against North Korea. Even tackling Trump’s most recent obsession, the NFL, where athletes have been kneeling to show solidarity and raise awareness for the fact that black people are still treated poorly in America.

He even goes after his own fans who claim to be Trump supporters.
“And any fan of mine/who’s a supporter of his/I’m drawing in the sand a line/you’re either for or against/and if you can’t decide/who you like more and you’re split/on who you should stand beside/I’ll do it for you with this,”
He says, before flipping the camera the middle finger.
Whether Trump will use this as an opportunity to call Eminem’s career ‘failing’ or ‘sad!’ is still to be ascertained.
Now we just wait for someone to put a beat to it on YouTube. But the rawness is unmatched and this is very likely not the end of Eminem’s criticism of the POTUS.
