Shots Fired: Nick Cannon vs. Eminem

mariah-and-nick-cannon

Dear hip-hop fans, your prayers have been answered. Eminem’s Relapse leaks, it is generally regarded as a great reason to reitre, then he gets a new reason to care. Enter Nick Cannon.

People probably don’t realize what it’s like to be a tortured genius like Marshall Mathers. Most people probably didn’t notice the trend that exists in his music or the correlation between his personal life and the frequency and quality of his music. But think back to how mommy issues, budding relationship with Dre, personal financial trouble, marital instability, raising a daughter, losing a friend, dealing with drug addiction, and taking on Benzino/The Source acted as catalysts for some of the greatest music of our time. Now think about what is happening in his life now: 50 showcased his beautiful studio in Detroit last week, he has solidified his position in the game and on his label, he kicked his drug habit (kinda), mom is not really an issue, and he has enough money to deal with whatever else might occur. What better time to release a really terrible album?

So he returns to his tactics from Infinite and the Slim Shady LP which include name-calling and fire-starting. Well, whoever said opportunity seldom knocks twice, is not familiar with the Shadiest One. He thrives on beasting lesser MC”s; he really just eats this stuff up, and Nick Cannon is starting to look like dinner. What Mr. Mariah Carey does not understand is that any response that he comes up with is only going to flip the switch and activate the brain of the most talented battle rapper to not hail from New York. Nick’s blog featured a few shots, but it looks like he still needs a little encouragement:

I analyzed the situation from a logical perspective. Am I going to battle Eminem and try to out rap him? No, that would be stupid. The dude is nice on the mic. Even though nowadays he lacks substance, rapping about when he used to be hot. Like when Al Bundy gloats about his High school football prime.

Dear Nick, Please listen to the little man on your left shoulder! I miss Eminem.

I like Eminem, but was that song about Mariah and Nick really necessary? I mean how long was he with Mariah for anyways? He does seem to be a bit obessive with the women in his life. By the way that relapse album was pretty good, just cause he didnt drop a classic doesnt mean that album sucks. The best verses on relapse are just as good as the best verses on any hip hop album that’s been released in the past few years.

Why is he the best battle rapper outside of NY ever? Who has he ever battled…Moby? Britney Spears?His Mother?? His Baby Mamma??Was there a song with him going at Officer Ricky since he called him out. Doubt it..He never gets involved in any of 50’s fights cause he’s just a pussy ass coward, who only picks battles with people who can’t rap. He needs to be on a show called MC BullyBeatdown.

5. PrimeTime Says:

Never gets involved in 50’s fights??? you smoking crack? Ja rule???? they had multiple songs back and forth, and that started as 50’s fight!!!!

6. Rihanna Says:

Bagpipes is my favorite song on the album, the beat is magnificent. I love the nick and mariah humor. That’s Eminem, much more effective than going after officer Ricky bahahahahahahaha, get real smoove. Take those pictures off of me by the way…

7. Nahshon Says:

1.Cannibus
2. Insane Clown Posse
3. Dude from House of Pain (Everlast)
4. Benzino
5. Ja Rule
6. DJ Lethal and Fred Durst
7. Jermaine Dupri

He KO’d everyone of them without breaking a sweat. It just didn’t seem fair to call him the greatest without giving consideration that he went after a lot of soft targets.

8. Anonymous Says:

whoever commented as Rihanna is a fucking loser

9. Rihanna Says:

okay Anonymous… OK.

10. black Says:

I hate the hip-hop community,they love to see white boys mimic their culture and give them numerous passes, when they cross the line. Even JaRule was right when he said in his rap that eminem would never no black pain. You hip-hop fans were to busy, hatin on Rule with fifty and that faggot eminem to see some of the truth he was saying. So what Nick Cannon addressed him and he has the good guy image, its couragous on his part to do what so-called hardcore black rappers and ordinary black people refuse to do and that’s to check this buzz saw voice sounding clown. Hey black people aren’t you sick and tired of this wigger and out all the talented blacks in the business its up to him to produce new 2Pac material, its bullshit and his rap career is bullshit. Big up Nick, its too bad the black community won’t stand behind you, they only value black thugs today.

11. ShadyL Says:

Please… Eminem destroyed Benzino, Ja Rule, Limp Bizkit Insane Clown Posse and Canibus. Eminem is a lyrical genious and no one can come close to him. Em would end his career if Nick threw a line at him.

12. Kuz Says:

Agreed that Eminem is the rap battle king, he put Benzino and Ja Rule ’s career to an end. And lots of others who wanted to mess with him soon realized that he’s in totally different level.

16. moneda Says:

Eminem beat Canibus? I’m going to have to revisit that battle…

17. White Says:

Black- your perspective is sooooooo biased (racist) it is not even funny

18. black Says:

yes i’m biased, black people can’t have shit, everything we create in this world is taken from us. comedian Paul Mooney is right the black man in america is the most copied man on the planet. all you other groups and not just whites, like to behave like us, but you can’t handle our sufferings. you can put away the music and change your clothes, walk straight, change your speech and get along with life. no matter what we attain in life, we are nothing more than niggers and useless eaters to the white elite of this world(illuminati). when your being treated like shit every day yeah you will have a chip on you shoulder. eminem has said some racist shit in the past, just like nick pointed out, i don’t think his statement in his recent rap are racist but he crosses the line. all these bloggers are refering to nick cannon as a pussy, why because he won’t live up to your bullshit stereotypes of us and i’m sick of it, millions of us shun the thug lifestyle that does not make us pussies, true strength lies in being yourself. big up nick, stand up for your wife any man would, he called mariah his black goddess and that’s true, there are no bi-racial people on earth, the seed(sperm)determines your background meaning your dad, halle berry just had baby with a caucasian man, that child is white and mariah carey is the seed of a negroid man, hence making her black. i mentioned that because bloggers on the web were saying nick, how can she be just black, with a white mother, well the misinformed have their answer, nick has a pretty good understanding of biology i guess because he is correct in what he said in his essay. it’s just like a seed planted in the soil all of what that seed will become is already inside the seed, it just needs fertile soil to grow and receive nutrients and the same is true with people we need a wound to grow in and receive nutrients after we are planted(from sperm of course).now, the comments on seed and soil and all of that did not come from nick cannon, those are my statements, but he must have some understanding of that refering to her as a black women, its not about complexion or hair type it’s all about your father.

19. White Says:

Ok. The President of the United States is BLACK. Don’t limit your knowledge and information to celebrities and rappers you idiot. Go and take some more taxpayer money with your affirmative action.

LISTEN TO THE SONG BEAUTIFUL BY EMINEM- or maybe you already have and realized that true strength lies in being yourself just like the modern day shakespear the king of ladder day saints here says!!!!

20. black Says:

hey white fuck u i dont limit my knowledge and information to celebrities and entertainers, for your information i am in my second year of medical school, idiot i had to attain a degree in biology first, so i am pretty informed on science. why does every group throw barack obama in are face, like that makes up for all the fowl shit that has happened to us negroes for 400 hundred years. i can care less about the president being black, they are selected not elected, they are placed into positions of power only after the illuminati groups such as the club of rome, the council on foreign relations, the bilderberg group, the knights of malta, and many other branches of secret societies say so. and no, i will not listen to any eminem song beautiful or any of his other songs, that buzz saw voice fucks with my ears.

LYRICAL ANALYSIS – you’ll realize the New World Order is on its way… ILLUMINATI/FREEMASON connected to all media… VIDEO PROOF and EMinem LYRICAL ANALYSIS http://tiny.cc/X0jcq

22. White Says:

Thank you for further proving my affirmative action point. However, I find that hard to believe based on your poor grammar and spelling- To say that you have endured, and I quote, “400 hundred years” is as fictitious as the illuminati.

23. Smooth Da Hustler Says:

“I used black music to make myself wealthy.” Eminem(on one of his watered down first singles, that all sound the same)

BLACK-BLACK- Seriously? You present yourself as well educated man. A MAN, that is all. I see no color just shades of grey. I am glad you admitted to being biased, at least that is out of the way. As far as POOR BLACK PEOPLE, you are DEAD WRONG. Slavery was an issue decades ago, its in the past. I’m truly sorry “your people” were enslaved, it was wrong, but to be racist yourself isn’t right. You are just continuing the cycle. Its people like you that keep this country in a slump. Everyone in some shape or form is racist. And until we as a country come to terms that we are all equal, this world will remain a hell on earth. You mentioned the Bilderberg, you are right, Obama is merely a pawn to make the US look good. IDGAK if he is “black” doesn’t mean S*** to me (sorry if you found that offensive). And “BLACKS” are responsible for the stereotypes. Its “black people’s” faults people think judgmentally towards them. If young “black people” would educate themselves rather than tear themselves down maybe you wouldn’t be shunned. Statistics show that there are more “black people” in prisons and jails more than any other race. Statistics prove there are more “black people” on welfare and some sort of government aid than any other race. Raw numbers show percentages in close proximity to that of the statistics of “blacks” and “whites”. The fact of the matter is, there are more “white people” than “black people” in the US. So there indeed is a huge significance in the percentages. White 38.8% Black 39.8 Hispanic 15.7 Asian 2.4 other 3.3. The percentages are close but the fact that “black people” are 14% of the US population and make up about 40% of the recipients on welfare vs. “white people” who are over 50% of the US population and make up about 40% of recipients. Statistics prove that there less “black people” with higher education (my source is a bit shaky, but I continue with the trend) than any other race. So don’t blame the “white people” for suppressing the “blacks”, “Black people” hold themselves back. You can go ahead and spit that “white people” held you back and made it hard for you and “your people” but you are, I’m sorry, full of S***. As far as Mariah being “black” she is biracial. Never have I come across anything proving that your father’s “seed” determines your race. I know that it is male genetics that determine the sex of a fetus, all fertilized eggs are female at first, hence both male and female have nipples and areolas. For you to say something as ignorant as she is “Black” because her Father is “black” is just plain stupid. Her father’s sperm nearly transferred parts of his DNA into the egg. By the way her father is Black and Venezuelan, so who is to say that the 25% black is what signifies her race? According to your logic, the father determines her race, so why is she not Venezuelan? We can even go off of your logic, she still indeed would be biracial (dismissing her mother’s nationality, {according to you it doesn’t count}) because her father is mixed. Either way you take it she is of mixed nationality. Should she just ignore her mother’s heritage? No, she shouldn’t, according to genetics she is of Irish decent, no matter if she is seen in the “black community“. Just because someone acts “black” surrounds themselves by “black people” doesn’t make them “black”. Its how you perceive yourself to be. If EM is a wigger does that make MC one as well? According to rules of genetics she is predominately white. Her features created by her dominate gene (brown eyes, dark care and slightly dark skin compared to white skin) don’t cancel out the fact that she is white. As much as you fathom the fact that she isn’t “black” fact is fact. Furthermore as much as you claim to be educated you made yourself look uneducated, not stating you are in fact ignorant, but people do have their moments. LET THE RECORD SHOW OF ALL RACES I BELIEVE AFRICAN AMERICANS ARE THE MOST BIASED AND RASCIST. Ex 1: BET (Black Entertainment TV), BET AWARDS. God forbid there be a channel meant mainly for white people, let alone awards for being white. EX 2: “Black Men” get all bent out of shape if a “White Man” is dating a “black women”. The White men are trying to steal their African queens! Ex 3: “Black People” can say black power (don’t forget the black panthers) but “white People” dare not say “White Power”, because they’re KKK, or a Neo Nazi.

NICK CANNON IS FUCKING UGLY!

29. jack Says:

If a person’s race is determind by the father, Mariah’s father’s(Alfred Roy Carey) father (Roberto Nunez->Carey) is Venezuelan. Alred’s mom is black but he would be Latino and therefore Mariah is Latina! You should always acknowledge both sides of your family heritage. Mariah is Latina, Black, Caucasian, & what ever else I may have missed. But 1st and foremost, when Mariah travels around the Globe she’s view as an American.
