During a recent interview with DJ VLAD, The Game says Eminem responded to his "The Black Slim Shady" from his 2022 album, DRILLMATIC - Heart vs. Mind. "He responded. Game can always get him to respond, man. It must strike cords, man." said The Game during the interview. The Compton-born rapper probably refers to Ez Mil's song called "Realest," which features Eminem going after his rap foes who questioned his legitimacy in hip-hop. Co-produced by Mil and Em, the song features a fist-thumping lunchroom table beat and a popping snare that allows them to spit a variety of flows on the track. On "The Black Slim Shady," The Game raps: "I never heard you in a club, I never heard you in a bar / Eleven albums and ten never got played inside of my car." In "Realest," Eminem spits: "All the envious rappers I'd torch if I'm on a joint with 'em/And that is the only retort is I'm not played in the clubs muthaf--ka put a cork in it/Only reason they still play your s--t in the clubs is 'cause you still perform in 'em." The Game is probably referring to these lines but the narrative "they don't play Eminem in the clubs" was a hot topic during that period of time and Em probably responded to everyone and not specifically Game.
