Eminem's Enemies

I made this section because I wanted to have something that none of the other Eminem sites had. It's not a very big section at the moment, but I'm sure the bigger Eminem gets the bigger this section will get. If you have something that you think would be helpful to this section then please email me.

Insane Clown Posse/Twiztid
I think that this one goes back more than a lot of people think. A lot of people just think that ICP made 'Slim Anus' for no reason, but that isn't the case at all. This goes way back. I think it started about 1995, when Eminem was handing out flyersfor a party he was playing at. The flyer apprently said 'Appearance from ICP...maybe'. Violent J wasn't too happy about this and he told Eminem to 'fuck off' and that he wouldn't play at his party.

I think this hurt Eminem's pride a bit, and he started to diss ICP. He told people that he threw ICP out of a club in Detroit and he told a mutual friend that ICP were pussies for not responing. Eminem has dissed ICP on tracks before as well. On Get U Mad he says 'dress up like ICP and have them come see you perform live' and on Drastic Measures he says 'ICP are overated and hated because of their false identities'. ICP said enough was enough and they made the song 'Slim Anus'.. I'm not sure where Twiztid come in to this, but I heard that Dr. Dre was going to sign them but ICP got there first. I think goes way back to High School where Monoxide Child of Twiztid beat Eminem in a freestyle battle rap. I've never heard Eminem diss them on a song, but I think he has dissed them in interviews. Eminem aparently cried on the Howard Stern show after he heard 'Slim Anus'. I doubt that this is true. Eminem also went on a radio station saying he was too big to respond to ICP. ICP said there's no doubt that Eminem is a better lyricist, but they would kick his ass in a fight.

You can hear 2 parts of the Howard Stern Interview with the above parts explained.

In an exclusive interview with launch.com here's what Eminem had to say about the whole thing :

"I don't think I take the beef as seriously as they do, because I don't consider them artists. They look at me as an artist. I think they get more uptight about it. I can look at them and laugh. They can't do anything to me. What can they do to me? They have no credibility, no respect, no talent, they have nothing. All they can do is dis me vocally, they can't dis me lyrically. There's nothing they can do to me as far as the music goes. I don't take it as seriously as they do and I think that frustrates them. I think it's funny. "

I have been told to expect an ICP diss/diss track on 'The Marshall Mathers LP'. Can't wait to hear this one.

Cage
This one is simple. Ever since Eminem released 'The Slim Shady EP' Cage has accused Eminem of copying his style. Eminem was supposed to make a track dissing the NY Emcee but it never materialised. Eminem has dissed him on a few tracks, on 'Role Model' he says 'Bought Cage's tape opened it, and dubbed over it'. Also on the LP the prank call interlude 'Ken Kaniff' Eminem asks 'Is this Cage?'. He also disses him on the song Drasic Measures 'I'm picking up Cage's sister early...'. In a freestyle he also disses him 'Went on stage and sprayed Cage with agent orange' refering to the title of one of Cage's songs. In the same freestyle Em also says "Wiped my ass with his page is The Source..."

Cage hit back at Eminem in this song called 'As So Kiddies..' Cage mentions 'tired lyrics from Detroit' reffering to Eminem's heavy MTV rotation. I also have this interview Cage done with Caztro talking about the whole beef. Click here to download it.

Cage recently said in an interview with HipHopSite.com, that the beef is far from squashed, this is what he said:

HipHopSite: How did the beef between Em and Cage start, and where does it stand now?

Cage: It started because he is a bitch ass nigga! Right now it stands with me kicking in his fucking face, real horrorshow, I ain’t lettin’ all the shit he said slide

Cage also made a track called Still C.A.G.E. it's a parody of the Dre/Snoop song 'Still Dre'. You can listen to it by clicking here. (Thanks to CagevsAlex.com for that audio)

I think that Cage is a talented emcee and I'm sure you will hear a lot more about him in 2000, but against Eminem I think he may be in too deep.

Milkbone

This one apparently all started from the one line on the song 'Just don't Give A Fuck' where Eminem, says 'I'm nicer than Pete, but I'm on a search to crush a milkbone'. He says that this was not meant as a diss towards Milkbone, but a metaphor of how society treats white rappers.

Dr. Dre is reportedly fending off accusations that he lifted a portion of a song from a group called Milkbone and used it on a track for Scarface. The Associated Press reports that Milkbone producer James Gist and Set It Off Records filed a breach-of-contract lawsuit against Dre (known to some as Andre Young) on Monday in Los Angeles. The suit reportedly claims that Dre heard a Milkbone track that samples Lalo Schifrin's "The Human Fly" while he was talking to the group about helping them with a distribution deal. The suit then claims that when talks broke off between Dre and the group, Dre used the sample on the song "Game Over" which he produced for Scarface. Gist and Set It Off reportedly claim their plans to release Milkbone's song using the same sample had to be dropped, and are seeking $2 million for their troubles.

Milkbone also made a song called 'Introducing Milkbone'. Click here to download it. It's a very poor effort as far as diss tracks go. I think it was supposed to be on the Death Row album 'The Chronic 2000', but I'm not too sure about this.
