Jack Harlow talks about Eminem, responds Machine Gun Kelly diss

During a recent appearance on Rap Radar podcast with Elliott Wilson and Brian ‘B.Dot’ Miller, Jack Harlow briefly talked about Eminem and responded to Machine Gun Kelly’s ‘Drake flow’ diss after claiming himself as the best white rapper since Slim Shady.

“I used to order bunch of XXLs and I think I was just reading old interviews, y’all put Eminem on the cover every month. I was reading a lot of Eminem interviews and I remember I was reading this one section and there was a whole column that said ‘Eminem bad for hip-hop’ and y’all had some of the biggest rappers in the game answered. Jay-Z gave his answer. I read that and everyone answered like ‘F–K NO! EMINEM NOT BAD FOR HIP-HOP. HE’S DOPE AS S–T.’ And that’s what connected with me.” – said Jack Harlow

Then he continues: “At the end of the day, if you can rap, what else we talking about? We are not perfect. He made few mistakes in his career, sure, but it don’t f–king matter because he can rap his a– off so I said, I just had a moment I was like ‘just rap bro, there is so many things you could try to be everything’ but at the end of the day on this one I just wanted to rap.”

Later in the interview, Harlow responded to Machine Gun Kelly’s “Renegade” freestyle diss: “Everyone’s entitled to their own opinion, and I feel great about what I said, and I feel great about the reaction. It just is what it is. I’m an MC! I’m talking my s–t. This ain’t new concept to feel yourself. I fell no reservations about what was said at all.

Earlier this month MGK dissed the Kentucky native in a freestyle over Jay-Z’s Eminem-produced 2001 hit, “Renegade.” In the freestyle, he rapped: “I see why they call you Jackman, you jacked man’s whole swag / Give Drake his flow back, man, I eat rappers like Pac-Man.”

Even the biggest white rappers who we love, Mac, Marshall… Eminem does not make ‘club records’ he’s lyrical miracle huge star but no one else has actually been in this space of being white boy who actually makes really good commercial hip-hop records. Have you ever looked at it like that?

Jack Harlow had a whole lot to say in a recent interview with Rolling Stone as the young rapper continues the rollout of his new album “Come Home The Kids Miss You.”

“I think Eminem’s music is still forever immortal, and we are gonna get back to it. We are a couple years away from everyone reviving that shit as a culture and being like, ‘Look at this s**t.’ And everyone’s gonna pay their rightful respects again. No matter how the production ages to people, like, he put so much into his words that it immortalized him, even though that s**t aged as ‘circus music’ to some people.” – said Harlow.

Last month, in an interview with Rolling Stone, Louisville, Kentucky-born rapper said: “Not believing is what made Em so hard — he was in the dog pile. I want to be the face of my s**t, like the face of my generation, for these next 10 years.
