Guess who’s back? Back again? Shady’s-
Yeah, you know the rest. And you and all your friends have likely heard by now of “The Storm,” Detroit-born rapper Eminem’s 4:34 freestyle cypher/rash-session of President Donald Trump which aired Tuesday night during the BET Hip-Hop Awards.
Many Slim Shady fans cite the cypher (named such in response to Trump’s “calm before the storm” statement) as a substantive return to form, as the rapper hasn’t sounded quite so hungry, angry and raw in some time.
Among such cold bars as:
Except when it comes to having the balls to go against me, you hide ’em
‘Cause you don’t got the fucking nuts like an empty asylum.
And:
Tiki torches in hand for the soldier that’s black
And comes home from Iraq
And is still told to go back to Africa.
Em dropped in a clever line about ever-lovin’ blue-eyed Benjamin Grimm that all comic book fans can appreciate:
Racism’s the only Thing he’s Fantastic Four
‘Cause that’s how he gets his fucking rocks off and he’s orange.
A clobberin’ rhyme if we’ve ever heard one.
What’d you think of Eminem’s diss track against Donald Trump? Sound off in the comments.
