Eminem is the latest rapper to step into the ring with Australian upstart Iggy Azalea following an comical-if-not-awkward exchange between the artist and Snoop Dogg last month. This latest “beef” stems from a leaked snippet from Em’s upcoming song, “Vegas” off of his forthcoming compilation album, Shady XV. He raps:
“You’re lucky just to follow my ride/ If I let you run alongside the Humvee, unless you’re Nicki/ Grab you by the wrist, let’s ski/ So, what’s it gon’ be?/ Put that s–t away, Iggy/ You gon’ blow that rape whistle on me.”
Iggy took to her Twitter to respond:
Amidst an influx of Bill Cosby rape accusations, this feud couldn’t have been more poorly timed. Let’s just hope T.I. steps in for some damage control.
