Eminem & Slipknot fans unite after MGK dissed the legendary band live on stage

At Riot Fest in Chicago Sunday night, the 31-year-old Machine Gun Kelly took aim at the Grammy Award-winning heavy metal band Slipknot, who were performing on another stage during MGK’s set.

“Hey, you want to know what I am really happy that I am not doing? Being 50 years old wearing a f**king weird mask on a f**king stage, talking s**t. So, anyway, what is everyone’s favorite candy? Reece’s Pieces?” said the Cleveland-rapper-now-turned-to-punk-rocker.

Later MGK added: “Turn the lights up. Let me see who chose to be here instead of with all the old weird dudes with masks.” 

Back in February, Corey Taylor, the lead vocalist and lyricist of the band, appeared on Cutter’s Rockcast podcast, where the singer shaded musicians who changed genres.

“I hate the artists who failed in one genre and decided to go rock — and I think he knows who he is. But that is another story. I am the worst and I hate everything. People are used to that with me, though. But I have also encouraged a younger generation to think past the boundaries of what we listen to.”

Last year, in an interview with Dave Franco for Interview Magazine, MGK revealed that his last hip-hop album Hotel Diablo ‘was not welcomed because of the infamous Eminem beef.’

In many occasions, Corey Taylor has showed respect and love to Eminem and expressed his desire to do a song with Detroit legend. For that reason, Slim Shady and Slipknot fans unite to force Machine Gun Kelly leave Rock too. Check some of the best reactions below:

Snow replied: “Honestly, The Marshall Mathers LP. Back then, I definitely paid a lot of attention to Eminem. Loved him, loved the vibe. You know that rebellious, ‘I do not f**k with you all’ attitude. Coming out the gate being like, “Yo, I do not f**k with the norm of what you all think a pop star is.” And still becoming a pop star, that is pretty dope to me. Eminem is dope.”

Few months back, Snow also named Eminem as one of her “musical DNA”:

“Definitely some Eminem, Definitely some Selena, definitely miss Lauryn Hill… Back then, my homegirl let me have some CDs because I couldn’t afford it and she just gave me a Big Pun CD, an Eminem CD, Lauren Hill, Lil Kim, and Outcast… The best thing anybody could have done. That’s all I had, so I would just keep playing and keep playing it on loop. And if you think about those names and those things at that time that was the greatest music to put to make an artist.”

Grip freestyles on Bootleg Kev, talks how Eminem found his music, signing to Shady & more

Shady Records latest signee, GRIP has recently sat down with Bootleg Kev for an interview on his podcast where the two talk about how Eminem found his music, signing to Shady Records, Atlanta music and more.

On signing to Shady Records

“Eminem is like a coach who used to play basketball in NBA. I felt that. Before we even get to any paperwork or anything, he was just like ‘Yo, I don’t wanna change nothing, everything you do is great, creative control.'”

About getting Eminem & Royce 5’9″ on “IDFT!?”

“I chose the record which I wanted Eminem to be on. I played it before I told him and he was like ‘Damn, this hook is dope as f**k.’ I was like ‘that’s all I wanted to hear.’ With Royce, I already had the song constructed, like, the first half and second half and he just took the whole middle portion and killed that s**t which is what I was expecting him to do but then with Em s**t, I spent 16 bars. I was trying to be lyrical and do my own thing so when I sent it him and he sent back I already knew he was coming at least 36 bars. He went in. He went the f**k off. I don’t change s**t. I don’t change nothing.”

About his album “Snubnose” getting Eminem’s attention

“Em said he heard ‘Snubnose’ and the song ‘226’ caught his attention. I kinda rapping fast, switching cadences. For a long time, I was kinda upset cause it was great body of work and it fell under radar so for a long time I was frustrated. And its dope at least Em caught that s**t. It catapulted me to the next level. ”

Ice Cube speaks about his experience touring with young Eminem on “Up In Smoke”

During an interview with HipHopDX, Ice Cube spoke about his experience touring with a young Eminem during the Up In Smoke days.

“That was the first tour that I took my sons on. I am like, ‘You all hanging with me? You all about to grow up.’ I had them rolling with me, and just having the energy of all those humongous groups. I mean, at the time, Eminem was opening up after Warren G, Eminem was going on. So that just shows you the level that we were at, that we were on. He could have headlined.”

“It is just being with the best teams. You talk about the United States Olympic Dream Team or the ’90s Bulls, the ’80s Lakers, Shaq and Kobe, it is up there. You know you are at a point where it gets no better than this and that is what Up In Smoke Tour was.” – said Cube

“I might get in trouble for saying that but I don’t care. So, I was on tour with Eminem in Australia. Alchemist was there but he doesn’t know I got into trouble. He got a song and he was brining me out to perform cause obviously, when I was performing alone it was like 20,000 people, which was a lot for me still but he was performing in front of 80,000 so he was like ‘we are going to do the song on my set,’ so we did it…We get to his verse and he was like ‘drrrrrrrr drrrrrr,’ I can’t rap that fast. He’s going crazy and I’m trying to hype the man and catch the words but I’m missing it every time, I was like ‘FUCK,” the next day he sent Tracy to talk to me he was like ‘Marshall needs to speak to you’…I was like ‘man, I’m in trouble.’ Em told me ‘you put me in the back man, I need more help, you gotta be better hypeman , you need to catch my words. I spent whole 24 hours trying to learn every single bar just to make sure I can catch them. I was catching words but I’m not moving. That s**t was crazy.” said Boogie.

“He is surgical, especially on stage with all details.” – Alchemist added.

“I persuaded Eminem to come up on BMF. I actually directed the episode that he is in. I called him. I put pressure on him.” said Fifty

Later few seconds, Jimmy asked: “He did 8 Mile movie. It was huge hit and he was great in it. And then he was like ‘okay that’s it I’m done.’ why?”

On which Fiddy replied: “I think he had terrible experience on 8 Mile project cause he just didn’t wanna go back again, ever again. There was period when Hollywood would offer me things to get Eminem cause agent would go like ‘yeah this is good go give it to 50 and then him.’ I offered him 8 million dollars for one project, he looked at it and he was like ‘I think we should do the movie like Warriors.’ and I’m like ‘did you just missed 8 million dollars thing?’ and then he says ‘lets just go and record records man.'”
