Eminems new song disgusting people....

[Strictly Jake]

He has a new song

In it there is a lyric

Yelling bombs away like Im at a ariana concert outside waiting

Something like that...

What a disgusting things to do!

My cousin and her kids almost died at that concert!

[Crimson Dynamo]

The track in question is called 'Unaccommodating', in which Eminem raps: "But I'm contemplating yelling 'Bombs away' on the game/Like I'm outside of an Ariana Grande concert waiting."

[Kate!]

Pretty disgraceful that. Quite offensive.

He likes to be contraversial for sure.

[Mystic Mock]

I normally like Eminem's Music, but that is really insensitive imo.

Attention seeking like that makes me think quite lowly of him. Not that he'll particularly care lol.

[Scarlett.]

Um...

You all know he frequently referenced school shootings earlier in his career too right?

[Amy Jade]

That's gross. He's irrelevant now and needs colabs or controversy to get attention.

[Elliot]

Boring attention seeker! Mariah Carey ended him years ago!

[Niamh.]

That's gross. He's irrelevant now and needs colabs or controversy to get attention.

tbf he's had colabs and controversy all through his career

[Saph]

quite sad really.. there's controversial then there's just being a twat

He never used to make fun of tragic events that resulted in multiple children though as far as I know. I only know a few of his songs though.

The Beyonce one, Rhi ones, Dido one etc

From 20 years ago(I'm Back) about a school shooting .............

"I take seven kids from Columbine, stand 'em all in line
Add an AK-47, a revolver, a nine
A MAC-11 and it oughta solve the problem of mine
And that's a whole school of bullies shot up all at one time
'Cause (I'm) Shady, they call me as crazy
As the world was over this whole Y2K thing"

[Crimson Dynamo]

If he had mentioned the Brighton Bombing there wouldnt be a thread

[Nicky91]

it is a known fact that rappers, hip hop artists can be controversial with their music

[Beso]

Seen and heard a lot worse in computer games.

Yes he is using the tragedy
to make money

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

This is on the news rn

I genuinely never knew that. What a pos.

It's Eminem, are people surprised?

I thought people stopped clutching their pearls over him back in the 90's.

People in this thread who are angry dont even know what pearls are as they are too young ( as a jewellery)

you need a more modern term

[Scarlett.]

It's kinda funny that his song about the Las Vegas gets more of a reaction than most shootings do nowadays (which is kind of the point of the song)

[Kizzy]

He donated £2 million after the attack. He’s not all bad

I don't think that anyone is saying that he is a bad person, it's just poor timing to use a terrorist attack which didn't happen that long ago in his new song.

I get that it's his choice, but I personally just don't like seeing people making money from a recent tragedy.

[Tom4784]

He's always employed shock tactics with his music though, he's always used outrage to promote his music so giving him that outrage seems counter-productive if you oppose what he does.

[Tony Montana]

This really is a new low for him. He's so irrelevant these days. Can't believe people on twitter were actually defending him.

[JerseyWins]

I listen to a lot of controversial rap so I'm desensitized to it and I feel like music can be taken with a grain of salt. But if people take offense, they take offense, I'm not gonna discredit those feelings but I'm personally definitely giving Em a pass :shrug: (and a round of applause for the album in general)

Shame tho because this new album is FIRE! :devil:

I'm also a big fan soooo yeah :joker:

Fans don’t have to like, agree or defend everything that the person they like does though

I'm just desensitized to controversial lyrics in general. I'm just saying I could also be biased towards him as a big fan but I just don't think it's that big of a deal to make a shooting reference in a song. I see how people could think it's in poor taste ofc, people were and still are distraught from it, but I just take it as a lyric meant to gain attention, that "oooo **** they went there" factor in music that's particularly big in rap. :idc: It's not that I don't care about those people's feelings I just don't think it's an awful act from a singer/rapper.. like for example idc if a rapper even made a 9/11 reference and 1) that was a huge gross attack on America and 2) a relative of mine (somewhat distant tbf) died that day. I wouldn't support it like "nice lyric bro!" but I wouldn't take offense to that either. You could maybe say I'm just not offended much tho :shrug:

[Denver]

That Irrelevant he is likely to do the chart double this week

[Shaun]

He has displayed little to no musical growth since 1999 and yet still comes back with the same album every 3 years and dominates the charts. I don't get it. All the catchy pop songs dried up a decade ago.

that said, haven't listened to MTBMB yet

[Denver]

He did a chart double and become the first ever artist to have a 10th consecutive UK #1 Album

[Babayaro.]

yes, it's incredibly distasteful and the families of those involved mustn't be very pleased, but it's...Eminem, a rapper. The genre is known for its controversial lyrics, so I don't get why people are so surprised.
