Have you ever imagined Eminem spitting feminist verse and dissing Rick Rubin for disrespecting women? Well, it’s not hard to imagine now as 30 Hertz is back again with a new track “A Diss Against the Patriarchy,” featuring Kanye West, created with the help of Artificial Intelligence technology.
AI also made Kanye West apologize to Taylor Swift. You can bump the new track below. WARNING: All the lyrics are automatically created by AI technology and it’s not even close to realness.
Iggy Azalea and Eminem have a long history of ‘beefing,’ with one of the most recent includes Eminem’s namedrop on Machine Gun Kelly diss track, “KILLSHOT” where the Detroit legend raps: “You ain’t never made a list next to no Biggie, no Jay, next to Taylor Swift and that Iggy ho, you about to really blow.’
Iggy replied with now-deleted tweets: “Diss songs shouldn’t be filled with celebrity name drops to pad out lazy bars. And that’s my unbiased opinion from a girl that watched this guys set and sung the words in the crowd. I’d think it regardless. One of the greatest to do it, I’m NOT in dispute about that. But I do think the name dropping thing has become a crotch [sic].”
Sydney, New South Wales, Australia-born rapper has once again became target for Eminem fans. For whatever reason, you can watch the video below:
Have you guys ever wondered what Eminem’s 1999 hit song “My Name Is” from The Slim Shady LP would sound like if Em had written it in 2021? Well, 40 Hertz has recreated it with the help of Artificial Intelligence technology, and it actually sounds like it could be Eminem.
The clever remake includes different lyrics that make references to Billie Eilish, K Pop stars, Drake, Rick Ross and Donald Trump – all which would be very likely targets for Eminem in real life.
His voice sounds just like the real thing, and is created using vocal synthesizers – all very complicated. And it looks like deep fake music could well present an issue for the music industry.

The Grammy Awards are known for flashy, unusual musical pairings, but no duo caused a stir like Eminem and Elton John in 2001.
Eminem’s The Marshall Mathers LP was one of the biggest hits of the previous year. It cemented him as a rap star and force to be reckoned with in the music industry — love him or hate him. And people really did either love him or hate him. For every critic hailing the Detroit native as a lyrical genius, there was another criticizing him for homophobic and misogynistic messages.
GLAAD announced it would be among the groups protesting Eminem’s “hate-filled lyrics” outside Staples Center in Los Angeles on Grammy night. Then, less than two weeks before the telecast, it was revealed that John would take the stage with Eminem to perform his hit song “Stan.”
Yahoo Entertainment has recently spoke with former Grammys producer Ken Ehrlich about how Eminem and John’s unforgettable performance came to be.
According to Ehrlich, who was the showrunner of the Grammy Awards for 40 years and the architect of the event’s signature musical team-up moments, there was no hesitation that Eminem’s participation (solo or not) might prove to be too controversial for network television.
“I produced the show, so a lot of it was my decision. We wanted him, there wasn’t any question. Granted he was — I don’t want to even use the word controversial. He was an extremely unique artist who was not hesitant about expressing his point of view. And by the way, some of that point of view was pointed at the Grammys.”
“Well, I don’t want to rewrite history if he says that that’s fine. It’s not exactly the way I remember it. But, you know, great ideas have many fathers.”
“I remember getting a call. It might have been someone at the label, it might’ve been someone from [Eminem’s team], but I think we had already been thinking about it, just not necessarily in those terms. We were looking for a duet partner because they had expressed to us that he was interested in performing with another artist.”
“As soon as we got the message to Elton that we were interested, he sparked to it. He said, ‘This is exactly the kind of thing that I want to do. I want to break down these barriers. If [Eminem’s] OK with it and he wants to do it. I’d love to do it.'”
Back in February, one of the TikTok users, who has since been removed from the app, uploaded a short clip of her listening to Eminem’s “Love the Way You Lie,” featuring Rihanna. She particularly called out the line, “If she ever tries to f**king leave again, I’m a tie her to the bed and set this house on fire” and wrote “Yesssss lets cancel him.”
Since then, that initial post has gone viral, launching an age-old debate about the artistic value of Eminem’s controversial lyrics in a time of heightened sensitivity. Posts related to the #canceleminem hashtag reached almost 3 million views. BUT a quick scroll through the videos indicates that the hashtag has been commandeered by Eminem fans who are defending the rapper. Many of these fans point out that Eminem has always been controversial and this particular Gen Z campaign is nothing new.
Last Friday, Eminem released an animated lyric video for “Tone Deaf,” single from Music To Be Murdered By album, in response to “Cancel Eminem” campaign. And when everybody thought it was all over, suddenly, Eminem 2005 song “FACK” becomes the new hot on TikTok. Check out some of the videos below:
Ten years ago, multimillionaire beauty entrepreneur Kay Cola, who was a single mother of two, could never have imagined where she’d be today. Kay Cola became a multi-millionaire after leaving the music industry to build her own all-natural beauty business but before she left, she has worked with Eminem and Dr. Dre in the past.
In a recent interview with Forbes, she talked about the working experience with two legendary figures in hip-hop: “Working with Eminem was certainly a high point in my music career. The song was ‘Not Afraid,’ from the Recovery album. It was a very collaborative experience and I was both singing and writing for the track. Dr Dre was great to work with, too. He would let me do my thing and give me guidance afterward.”
Legendary producer Mark Batson, who has been involved in countless Eminem tracks, has recently hit Instagram to celebrate his latest effort with Slim Shady, Music To Be Murdered By going platinum and hitting 1 billion total streams.
“Today celebrating more than 1 million albums and 1 billion streams since release of Music To Be Murdered By album. Another jewel for us in the crown of Team Shady. Realizing today that I have been a part of this for almost 20 years. Sending thanks to Eminem, Dr. Dre, Shady Records.” wrote Mark while sharing the streaming plaque.
To remind you all, Mark Batson was involved in the production of “Premonition” intro track on Music To Be Murdered By album. Check out the post below:
The legendary lyricist, Nas, shares new Spotify playlist, titled “Mind Right” and it features latest songs from Eminem, Griselda and 50 Cent.

During a recent interview with Marisa Mendez on HipHopDX, Royce Da 5’9″ was surprisingly joined by Joell Ortiz where the two proceeded to stroll down memory lane, reflecting on their Slaughterhouse, reuniting on Eminem’s “I Will” for Music To Be Murdered By album, and sharing a few thoughts on the Griselda movement:
“Griselda did not necessarily get more mainstream attention than we did. We actually released an album. It was two totally different journeys. I do understand the comparison.” said Royce and Joell added: “They anti-establishment, like we are.”
Then the two talk about “I Will” song: “That song was a joint we did a long time ago. Em just went back through it, cause he does that sometimes. Especially if we go to his studio to record it, nobody will take a copy of it. It’ll be something that exists in his world. When he called me and told me that he wanted to use it, I was like f**k, I know he ain’t gonna let me change my verse. But then I heard my verse and thought, okay, that’s cool.” said Royce.
“I thought the exact same thing Royce. I hadn’t heard it in years. It definitely held up.” added Joell Ortiz
Yesterday, exactly 1 year ago, Eminem dropped the music video of “Godzilla,” featuring Juice WRLD, from Music To Be Murdered By album, directed by Lyrical Lemonade’s Cole Bennett. The video features cameos from hip-hop icon Dr. Dre, legendary boxer Mike Tyson, actress Anna Dahl and actor George Todd McLachlan. Juice WRLD appears in the video as well, using older stock footage.
“Godzilla” video was nominated at 2020 MTV Video Music Awards in two categories: “Video Of The Year” and “Best Hip-Hop Video” but lost to The Weeknd’s “Blinding Lights” and Megan Thee Stallion’s “Savage” respectively.
To celebrate 1 year anniversary, Cole Bennnett dedicated an Instagram story to the video, saying: “One year ago this [Godzilla] video came out and changed my life in a lot of ways.”
HipHopDX has recently caught up with Royce Da 5’9″ and his father for an interview, where the two hilariously recall the time Dr. Dre called in their house, only to be mistaken for a licensed medical professional.
“I remember when I told him, ‘You’ve got a phone call,'” I asked him what was wrong with him. He’s like, ‘What do you mean?’ I said, ‘You’ve got a phone call from your doctor.’ He said, ‘The doctor?’ I said, ‘Yeah, somebody named Dr. Dre.’”
“By the time he got out the shower, I heard all the slipping and sliding and falling into the toilet and on the floor trying to get to the phone. I didn’t know who Dr. Dre was and once I’d found out who Dr. Dre was I was like, okay well my son is onto something. Somebody recognizes him for what he is because, at that point, I wasn’t quite sure.” said Greg.
Then Royce continues: “I caught his voice immediately. He was like ‘I like your s**t man, Marshall played me your s**t, man. I wanted to see if you wanted to come out here and rock with us. We working on some stuff.’ I was just writing stuff. As much as I could. I was just excited to be in the environment. I thought he was a genius, that everything he did was classic. I walked in a Stan.”
The Weeknd was controversially snubbed in the nominations for the 63rd annual Grammy Awards, but the Canadian superstar received lots of support and love in his homeland, Canada.
