Nick Cannon Disses Eminem A Third Time, Calling Him 'KKK Of His Generation'
Nick Cannon is back with another diss track aimed at Eminem, but this time, he’s alleging that the 47-year-old white rapper is a racist. In his new track, he refers to Marshall Mathers as the “KKK of his generation.”
TMZ reports that Cannon’s new track is called “Invitation: Canceled,” which is in reference to the first track he released called “The Invitation.” The title refers to Cannon’s sort of literal invitation to fight back with another song. It’s also in reference to the cultural phenomenon of “canceling” someone, or de-platforming them when troubling details surface.
Eminem responded to the first track with a series of not-too-serious tweets as a sort of warning. See these somewhat NSFW messages on Twitter. Cannon didn’t back down, releasing a second track. Eminem has yet to respond to either the second or third track.
Cannon’s new song draws up old lyrics of Eminem’s from a track that is untitled and never released, where the rapper says: "Black girls are [expletive], black girls are dumb." Cannon samples this line of lyrics and puts them on loop throughout the diss track.
The first minute and a half of the track is an onslaught of old Eminem lyrics, sampled and overlapping as Cannon reacts to them. He then goes into some specifically targeted at him and his ex-wife Mariah Carey, where Mathers refers to the two of them rather harshly. Cannon then jumps on the mic: “You’ve been disrespecting our queens for years. Matter of fact, why don’t you tell them how you really feel, Marshall…”
It cuts to the old track with the aforementioned offensive lyrics, before Cannon jumps into a verse about how Eminem is racist.
After relating the rapper to the KKK, Cannon follows up with, “O-KKK, did I take it too far?”
That’s generally the focus of this track in particular: Mathers' standing as a white rapper that Cannon alleges is racist and his place in the world of hip-hop. He says Mathers is “a pest in our house.”
Cannon suggests that Eminem’s supposed racism is about his “jealousy” towards the black community, particularly his idols involved in the hip hop community. Cannon even compares Mather’s friends as slaves.
At press time, Eminem has yet to respond.
