Machine Gun Kelly quotes Eminem lyrics regarding Slipknot’s Corey Taylor beef

Before Machine Gun Kelly and Eminem beef started off, MGK was a big fan of Eminem and it looks like he remains so.

Since changing the genre, Texas-born rapper-turned-to-rocker has been beefing with legendary heavy-metal rock band, Slipknot.

Slipknot member Corey Taylor recently revisited the beef during a Question and Answer session at his performance on the 2022 ShipRocked Festival cruise during January 22 – 27.

“For those of you that don’t know, MGK doesn’t like me very much. And let me follow that up by saying I don’t care,” Taylor told the audience. “This genre really doesn’t get the f**king respect that it deserves. MGK don’t get to walk in as some weird substitute teacher and pretend that you can tell us what to wear—boots, shoes, house-f**king-shoes, slippers. Why don’t you suck every inch of my d**k? You don’t get to do that. And these are bands that maybe I don’t even f**king know, but guess what? I f**king respect them because they get on f**king stage and they f**king give every f**king thing they’ve got.”

In response (supposedly), Machine Gun Kelly quoted Eminem’s lyrics from “The Way I Am” song on Twitter: “I am, whatever you say I am.”

Lil Wayne was asked MGK or Eminem / G-Eazy or Eminem

Two years ago, The Champs chop it up with Lil Wayne where they talked about many things, including Eminem. Check it out below.

Interviewer: Eminem or MGK ?

Lil Wayne: Machine Gun Kelly? I gotta say Eminem cause I do not know too much about Machine Gun Kelly. That is the only reason though.

Interviewer: Eminem or G-Eazy?

Lil Wayne: Again, do not know too much about G-Eazy. Also, I did bunch of joints with Eminem, that is my man. When you get on that joint with Eminem it is like a championship game, and you win it, and they ask you how does it feel. I came in with my game plan and I expected my game plan to work. When you send a song to Eminem you attack it like that, like nah, you not going to do me like this. Either we going be right here (level) with it and we are going to make a beautiful, wonderful, great song, but you ain’t going do me that (above me). And that is what we did. Can nobody say anybody got bodied. I just made sure that he did not body me, cause that boy is a monster.

Lil Wayne and Eminem have previously collaborated on “Drop The World,” “No Love” and “Forever.” Do you think Weezy was equally good compared to Eminem? Watch the interview below and tell us your opinions in the comments.

Shaun Morgan to MGK: “You got owned by Eminem, that’s why you came to rock”

Seether’s Shaun Morgan has shared his thoughts on fans booing Machine Gun Kelly at last weekend’s Louder Than Life festival: “Thank you booing MGK yesterday, f**k that idiot.”

Later Shaun Morgan gave an interview to LoudWire, where he said:

“I congratulated the crowd for booing that prick off the stage. Here is my thing — You were a rapper, you got rapped out of rapping because you got so owned by Eminem. Then you come to rock and it is more pop punk than anything else as I consider it, but yeah, I just had to say something. I was proud of those people. I did not feel like you belong on a stage like that after one or two singles just because you have got a name and a fancy girlfriend and now you are a big headliner at a rock festival. And especially not when you take on one of metal’s greatest singers and you think that you are gonna get away with it.”

“I was very impressed by them and I had to thank them, and I had to let them know that they were doing God’s work.” Morgan added.

Comedian Josh Pray to MGK: “Eminem let you continue. Eminem could’ve buried you, don’t mess with Slipknot”

Comedian Josh Pray has recently uploaded a video warning Machine Gun Kelly not to mess with legendary metal rock band Slipknot’s incessantly loyal fanbase.

While giving some emotional advices, Josh also mentioned Eminem:

“Slipknot do not have just fans, they have brotherhood! Heavy metal fans are not like rap fans! They ain’t go online and listen to a rap beef, they ain’t gonna listen to lyrics, they ain’t gonna tweet about it, they are going to come on every show you perform and they gonna mosh pit the s**t out of you… Eminem let you continue . Eminem could have buried you, homie. He could have stood over you and said bunch of more Marshall Mathers type stuff. HE LET YOU. And now you want to mess with this FAMILY?!”

MGK gets booed off stage, fights fans & then hides behind his security team

This weekend Machine Gun Kelly was not received at the Louder Than Life Festival in Louisville, Kentucky

Yesterday night, MGK was booed by the crowd and got into altercation with fans.

According to the media, there are two main reasons behind this: First, the rock fans were not pleased that MGK has transitioned from making rap music to rock because the rock and metal fans are purists who believe he made the switch because he had to after beefing with Eminem.

Second reason appears to be the Huston musician recently dissing legendary metal rock band Slipknot’s Corey Taylor live on stage at Chicago’s Riot Fest earlier this month.

You can watch the videos of booing and fighting below:

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:

Fans think MGK’s new album title references Eminem

Yesterday, rapper-turned-punk-rocker Machine Gun Kelly announced that he has a new album coming up with Travis Barker, and it will be titled “Born With Horns.”

Fans think that the album title is a reference to Eminem.

In a song, “Unaccommodating” with Young M.A. from “Music To Be Murdered By,” Eminem raps: “When they ask me is the war finished with MGK? Of course it is, I cleansed him of his mortal sins, I am God and the Lord forgives even the devil worshippers. I am moving on but you know your scruples are gone when you are born with Lucifer’s horns.”

Machine Gun Kelly responds Eminem’s jab on “Zeus”

Machine Gun Kelly, who has recently admitted his rap career went downhill after beefing with Eminem, has responded Eminem’s jab on “Zeus,” featuring White Gold from Music To Be Murdered By: Side B album.

On the song “Zeus,” Eminem kicks his verse with the following lines:

“She says I am trash, but she listens to Tekashi,
Bitch, you lost me, 
Fair weather, wishy-washy,
She thinks Machine washed me,
Swear to God, man, her favorite rapper wish he’d crossed me..”

(This line doubles as wordplay for machine-washing clothes).

Looks like Machine Gun Kelly is not impressed with the subliminal diss as he responded to the song with trash emoji. Check the tweets below:

MGK says his Hotel Diablo album was not welcomed because of Eminem

In a new interview with Dave Franco for Interview Magazine, MGK has revealed that his Hotel Diablo album flopped because of Eminem feud and he almost gave up.

Interviewer: Were there moments when you almost gave up because you were killing yourself for your music and it still felt like you were misunderstood?

Machine Gun Kelly: Yes. The 2019 album, Hotel Diablo is that for me, because that was the first time I really expressed my true self with no outside influence, meaning the label. As a hip-hop album, it is flawless front to back, and also a hint at the evolution of how I went into a pop-punk album.

Machine Gun Kelly: But it was coming off the tail-end of that infamous beef with Eminem. So no one wanted to give it the time of day. It is like if you make a shitty movie and then you come out with a great movie right after, but people want to focus on the fact that they hated whatever you just did. What I did in the beef was exactly what it should be, but that project was not welcomed. The next album came from already feeling like I’d counted out, so I didn’t even care what the public was going to think. That’s why the project was ironically my best received one, because it was the most effortless, with the least outside influence.

“What I did in the beef was exactly what it should be, but that project was not welcomed.”

– MGK (November 28, 2020)

Hotel Diablo album was released in 2019 as the follow up for his Binge EP and it debuted at number five on the Billboard 200, with approximately 39,000 album equivalent units sold. It jumped down to number 20 in its second week, selling 20,585 album equivalent units. The album received generally mixed reviews from critics.
