Erminem and his beefs wit other rappers…What beef do u think went to far?
We all know about Eminem’s beefs wit Everlast One of the rawest Beefs Eminem lead was that with previously House of Pain band member ‘Everlast’. A beef that resulted in both artists taking things arguably to a personal level which questions the limits of hip hop rivalry. In the eyes of Eminem the beef started when Everlast had begun throwing verbal shots at Mr Mathers in interviews and such due to him walking past Whitey in a lobby "like I ain’t noticed you, bitch I had a show to do". EverlastThe first shot was by Everlast while with Dialated Peoples in a track called ‘Ear Drums Pop’ in which the subliminal ‘I buck a .380 on those that act Shady’ was thrown. This was around the time of the Anger Management Tour and upon hearing of the track Eminem wrote what would become ‘I remember’. The track was on the B-side of the ‘Shit On You’ single, a parody of the musical orientation which Everlast had chosen to follow, pulling out all stops by referring to his heart problems, the failure of ‘House of Pain’ and ultimately putting the hatred down to being jealous of Slim. The beef caused chaos in St Andrews Hall, Detroit while Everlast was throwing a gig, he challenged the crowd by asking if there’s anyone from the Shady Camp wanting to battle, then insulting the rapper by calling him a midget and dissing his group D12. An audience member then leapt on stage and questioned the crowd over why there gonna let Everlast come to the D and diss Eminem? Next a fight broke out in which 3 people were sent to hospital and the show came to an end. Everlast also got a beating, though of a different kind in the Slim Shady Show in which he got jumped, though we can report Everlast never actually sustained any injuries. A released statement from Tommy Boy Records which Everlast was signed to claimed Eric had found the track ‘I remember’ amusing, though this was a clear tease while he was writing a come-back. The return to came in the form of ‘Whiteys Revenge’, a slow-tempo heavy, luring track from Everlast which equaled the complete lack of respect by suggesting that Eminem better ‘Go and check your kid for your DNA’ and putting forward a physical battle. Ever getting the last word in, Eminem with support from D12 responded with the track ‘Quitter’, a 2 part instrumental which premieres with a dark hounding beat which switches mid-way to 2pacs ‘Hit Em Up’.Within the track Eminem states "He can’t rap or sing but wants to do both" and D12 throw shots further degrading the character of Everlast. The track was followed up by ‘Searching for Bobby Fishcher’ from Everlast which went relatively unheard of and not soon after the beef fizzled out and Eminem prepared himself for jumping into the next beef he’d find himself in.
Eminem also had beef wit Insane Clown Posse A Rivalry with beginnings that harks back to 1995, a stage before Eminem was signed and trying to build a reputation for himself. While ICP were performing in Detroit, Eminem had set up a stall which held many Flyers he was handing out for a party he was to host and planned to perform in. Among a list of Rap groups/artists to appear, the flyer stated ‘ICP Might Appear .. Maybe’. This annoyed Violent J, a member of the Posse who came across the flyer and told Eminem to ‘fuck off’, clearly not wanting Marshall to use their name to get known.
This left a negative vibe between Eminem and ICP, with the situation only getting worse when Eminem insisted the group never turned up at his party after D12 had chased them out of a night club and shot at their van with paintball guns. This did happen but was but denied by the Insane Clown Posse on a track that was made a while later on a Howard Stern interview entitled ‘Nothing but a bitch thang’ which states that the ‘only club ever chased anybody out of was a gay bar’.
Eminem had previously verbally attacked with a few insults thrown on various tracks such as ‘Get You Mad’ and ‘Drastic Measures’ in which Eminem claims the group are over-rated, but surprisingly with no dedicated diss track. A humorous event at the ‘Up In Smoke Tour’ had Eminem come out on stage with a clown-faced, rather large mouthed inflated doll which orally pleasured him showing there was no hard feelings.ICP WhiteDuring this time Eminem had made an appearance on the Howard Stern radio show and answered ‘Who?’ when asked his thoughts on the Insane Clown Posse. An obvious diss suggesting ICP are unknown, which relatively was true. He also remembers them as dudes who got their asses beat ‘all the time, back in the day’.To be given an opportunity to respond, ICP were invited to the show the very next day and obviously angered by the insult they stated ‘We Don’t even know that bitch’ when referring to Eminem. They then released the track ‘Nothing but a bitch thang’ as said earlier, and another with a group ICP has signed by the name of Twiztid and collectively called ‘Slim Anus’. A parody of ‘My Name Is’ which appeared on the Slim Shady LP.Eminem took things up
