Eminem Hits Back At Gen Z For Trying To “Cancel” Him
First Gen Z came for skinny jeans and we said… a lot actually. And then Gen Z came for side-parted hair and we… also said a damn lot. And now Gen Z is coming for 48-year-old Eminem because of his past lyrics and well, we’re all clutching our skinny jeans in one hand and caressing our precious side parts with the other while shrugging and saying, “Um, you know, you can have this one.” No, some people are coming to Eminem’s defense over the Gen Z army (okay, like one person on TikTok) trying to take him down, and that “some” includes Eminem himself.
This latest battle in the GEN WARS!!!!! started when someone on TikTok stamped Eminem with the CANCELED label over lyrics he spits out in Love The Way You Lie, the 2010 song he did with Rihanna. These are the lyrics in question:
“If she ever tries to fucking leave again, I’ma tie her/to the bed and set this house on fire.”
Wait until Gen Z discovers Eminem’s other songs and the origin of “stan.” Their side-parted hair will blow right off of their skulls in shock! And as Elton John, the president of the gay chapter of The Defend Marshall Bruce Mathers III Club, waits to defend his BFF when Gen Z finds out that Eminem uses gay slurs in songs, the Millenials are using their skinny jeans-slathered legs to stomp on Gen Z. Some Millenials were like, “Really, that’s what’s got your Gen Z chonies in a twist?“, and others made the wrong decision to hit Gen Z with response-raps that make MC Skat Kat sound like Tupac:

Well, while defending Eminen from being “canceled,” Millenials canceled, destroyed, torched, and buried hip-hop by rapping at the kids to leave Eminem alone and to also get off their lawns!!!! And Eminem also got into the Gen Z diss track game by writing and recording his own response. In Tone Deaf, Eminem raps:
“I can’t understand a word you say (I’m tone-deaf)/ I think this way I prefer to stay (I’m tone-deaf)/ I won’t stop even when my hair turns grey (I’m tone-deaf)/ ‘Cause they won’t stop until they cancel me.”
I know that I have no right to call out someone’s grammar, but “when my hair TURNS grey“? Trick, you’re 48, it’s been turned! And here’s the clip where hip-hop’s answer to Taylor Swift lets Gen Z have it:

And while Gen Z and the Millenials battle it out over Eminen, us bald, compression socks-wearing old hos will be in the corner cackling before putting on some real fucking music:
Gen Z better not even think of coming for Lucille Bogan!
