Advertisement Even though the song was not released as a single or as part of an album, “The Warning” appeared on three Billboard charts, including US Rap Songs charts. Advertisement Some of the memorable lyrics include: “Listen, girly, surely you don’t want me to talk about how I nutted early ’cause I eja**lated prematurely and bust all over your belly and you almost started hurling and said I was gross, go get a towel, your stomach’s curling.”Carey did not publicly respond to “The Warning”, but in September 2010, his then husband Nick Cannon, who was also dissed in the song, responded with a song titled “I’m a Slick Rick.” Advertisement “The Warning” is considered the downfall of Mariah Carey’s spectacular career.You can revisit the classic diss-track below: Advertisement RECENT RELATED ARTICLESEminem Appears on the Final Episode of Stephen Colbert’s show “Only in Monroe”May 23, 2026Michael Jackson’s Ex-Bodyguard Reveals His Reaction to Eminem’s “Just Lose It” DissMay 23, 2026Warren Sapp Was Asked To Choose Between Jay-Z and Eminem on Drink ChampsMay 22, 2026MC Serch Talks How Eminem Supported Him During a Major Move to DetroitMay 22, 2026Skylar Grey Details the Surprising Reality of Working With Eminem and Dr. DreMay 21, 2026Zara Larsson Recalls Sneaking Around in School to Listen to Eminem & AkonMay 21, 2026 12 Years20092021EminemMariah CareyNick CannonThe Warning
