Lil Tay responds Eminem’s “Killshot” namedrop 5 years later

Posted on By

Lil Tay has recently responded to Eminem’s namedrop on “Killshot,” a diss track towards Machine Gun Kelly that was released more than 5 years ago.

A month after the rapper and influencer’s family announced her death in a post on Instagram — which was deleted the following day — Tay shared a music video for her new song “Sucker 4 Green.”

To promote her new single, she did a Question & Answer session on her discord channel where she replied to some of her curious fans, including questions about Eminem.

“Outstreamed the rapper who dissed me too.” she said in one of the comments. “‘feel like I’m babysitting lil tay’ ooopsie, I wouldn’t give you the PLEASURE of being with me boooo” she said in another comment.

“Killshot” is a response to Machine Gun Kelly’s “RAP DEVIL,” which was in itself a response to “Not Alike” from Eminem’s August 2018 album Kamikaze.

In the song, Eminem raps: “Got more fans than you in your own city, lil’ kiddy, go play / Feel like I’m babysitting Lil Tay.”

This is a response to “Rap Devil,” where MGK says: “But you’re just a bully actin’ like a baby / So I gotta read you a nursery (nursery).” Eminem responds by comparing MGK to Lil Tay, a meme-persona not to be taken seriously.
