Eminem reacts to SNL spoof of “Without Me” with one emoji

Back in March 27, Saturday Night Live did the parody of Eminem’s 2002 hit song “Without Me,” not just in song, but the track’s popular video as well.

The sketch kicked off with Kate McKinnon portraying Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen, who was speaking to a group of economy students. After the professor (Kyle Mooney) asked if there were any questions for Yellen, familiar notes from Em’s tune off The Eminem Show start to play as the camera pans to Pete Davidson dressed as the rapper’s fake superhero Rap Boy from the “Without Me” video.

After stumping the professor, Chris Redd — dressed as Dr. Dre’s take on the Matrix‘s Morpheus — chimes in to offer pills and explain further. Confused by the “complete nonsense,” McKinnon’s turns to the janitor — played by musical guest Jack Harlow — for a more “eloquent” explanation of what, exactly, NFTs are.

Almost a month later, Eminem responded to the spoof with one emoji. Check out his tweet below:

Rest in peace. Eminem has a unique style but I did not really see how it resembled mine. If anything, flow-wise, it resembled more Busta Rhymes. It just my opinion. We did the interview just recently. He was talking to me about my rhymes and I was sitting there like ‘Okay, okay, I get it now.’ Em is a beautiful brother man because, I mean, nothing goes over his head. He is a student of the game that studies it like a scientist. He studies it thoroughly. It was a good conversation we had. He is real deep into hip hop.”

The two hip-hop legends met for an interview which Kane is planning to release soon. But what if they did a song together too? One of the most influential rapper has just announced the new mixtape “The Light Up” which is dropping soon. What are chances that Eminem is on it?
