A fitting tribute to the artist who famously rapped, “My bum is on your lips / My bum is on your lips.” As recently as 2015, Tyler – who is not white but is queer – was banned from the UK partially because of his use of homophobic slurs.Ĭonversely, on the tail of the The Marshall Mathers LP, which is replete with homophobic abuse and violent misogyny, Eminem was lauded by Nobel Prize-winning poet Seamus Heaney as someone “who has created a sense of what is possible” and who “sent a voltage around his generation… through his subversive attitude”.

And while it’s tempting to dismiss his pathetic ‘bad boy’ shenanigans, Eminem is purposefully playing the race card in a way that is insulting and damaging. Releasing his new album into a musical landscape which, he must realise, doesn’t even feel slightly empty without him, he is falling back on old ploys that feel increasingly hoary. “Eminem knows that he can still earn traction from his increasingly lazy and desperate trolling of gay people” The fact is that Eminem, who last year stated that he used Grindr, who in 2009 went along with a homo-erotic Sacha Baron Cohen skit, and who in 2014 gifted Elton John and David Furnish diamond-encrusted cock rings as a wedding present, knows that he can still earn traction from his increasingly lazy and desperate trolling of gay people.

One somehow doubts that Tyler will be prompted to release a reply to this angry-white-uncle figure, but let’s keep our ears to the ground. Leaving aside the offensive slur, this is a hilariously factual diss towards someone who casually rapped “Tell Tim Chalamet come get at me” just a few months ago. On his song ‘Fall’, Eminem – who is five years older than the president of France – spits: “Tyler create nothing, I see why you call yourself a faggot, bitch”.
