In support of his upcoming double-disc Shady XV album, Eminem released the Shady CXVPHER which features rappers from across the country including Crooked I from Long Beach, California; Joe Budden from Jersey City, New Jersey; Yelawolf from Gasden, Alabama; Joell Ortiz from Brooklyn, New York; Royce Da 5'9" from Detroit, Michigan; and of course Eminem repping the Motor City as well. Slim proved himself the rap god once again during his seven-minute freestyle, and the line that has everyone talking is one in which he threatens to punch Lana Del Rey in the face. He also makes reference to Ray Rice, the NFL player currently suspended after footage emerged of him assaulting his fiancée.
"I may fight for gay rights, especially if they dyke is more of a knockout than Janay Rice/ Play nice? Bitch I'll punch Lana Del Rey right in the face twice, like Ray Rice in broad daylight in the plain sight of the elevator surveillance/ 'Til her head is banging on the railing, then celebrate with the Ravens," he raps on the line in question.
Del Rey has yet to respond, although she has admitted in the past that she is a big fan of Eminem.
"When I found Eminem for the first time, he really changed my life," she said in an interview RnBjunk.com. "I didn't know music could be intelligent. He was talking about his own life. He wasn't just rhyming over music just for rhyme's sake. That made me think I could actually talk about the way things actually were instead of just making stupid music to try and sell it. He's a genius. So I love him. ...Eminem was the master of lyrics. ...I have to say, I f**king love Eminem."
Hopefully Del Rey doesn't take one this to heart.
Slim also references Gloria Steinem, Anderson Cooper, Jay Z, fashion designer Liz Claiborne, Kate Hudson, Britney Spears, Disney "queers," and racecar driver Tony Stewart during his aggressive freestyle.
