Eminem, a rapper who stirs up controversy, has brought attention to the allegations of sexual misconduct that have been leveled against Sean "Diddy" Combs, the head of the hip-hop industry.
According to sources, this is bound to lead to another frenetic back-and-forth. On the other hand, there are many who are concerned that the verbal rap fight could turn into actual physical violence.
“Diddy’s facing some serious allegations and Em is trotting them all out in his new tunes. He isn’t saying anything that hasn’t been alleged before, but to celebrate them in song has put him right in Diddy’s crosshairs. Diddy is furious!” an unnamed source told The National Enquirer.
In his new record, "The Death of Slim Shady," Eminem, who is 51 years old, makes a reference to the hotel attack that Diddy, who is 54 years old, committed against his former girlfriend Cassie Ventura. He also hints that Diddy is a "rapper" rather than a "rapper" and that the music mogul prefers gay sex.
In a song named "Bad One," Eminem holds Diddy responsible for the deaths of rap superstars Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls. He also lends credence to Cassie's assertions that the founder of Bad Boy Records had a bomb planted in the car of rival rapper Kid Cudi, which exploded when Cudi and his family were only a few yards away.
“Eminem is opening up a lot of wounds in Diddy’s history. Given the kinds of stuff people are accusing him of, Em would be wise to watch his back,” the anonymous insider told the entertainment news outlet.
Business Times has reached out to Eminem and Sean “Diddy” Combs for comments.
Meanwhile, the album "The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce)" by Eminem has once again dominated the chart in the United Kingdom. Despite Olivia Rodrigo's resurgence with "Guts," the Rap God's most recent album, which was released on Friday, July 26, continues to occupy the top spot on the Official United Kingdom Albums Chart for a second week, Billboard reported.
"Death of Slim Shady” is Eminem's 12th studio album, and his 11th leader album in the United Kingdom. In the meantime, Olivia's second studio album, titled "Guts" and released by Geffen, has been a huge success, with the deluxe "spilled" edition of the record being released on vinyl.
Following its release in 2017, "Guts" spent a single week at the top of the Billboard 200 chart. In addition, Rodrigo's debut album, "Sour," which was released in 2021 and established a record, is given a boost on the most recent frame. In its 166th week on the chart, it has recorded a 24-23 increase.
The punk band Soft Play, formerly known as Slaves, has released their fourth studio album, titled "Heavy Jelly" (BMG), which is the most recent record to be added to the list of new releases. It is brand new in position No. 3. "Are You Satisfied?" (No. 8), "Take Control" (No. 6), and "Acts of Fear and Love" (No. 8) were all songs that made it into the Top 10.
