Eminem torches Trump in an expletive-filled freestyle rap
The Detroit rapper, like his many contemporaries, has made his career with an ability to articulate searing, and sometimes controversial, broadsides against his opponents. This time, he focused squarely on Trump. The artist conjured "the calm before the storm" in his opening line, a not-so-subtle reference of a phrase Trump recently used during a meeting with military personnel.
Eminem uses that line as a launching point for the first part of his salvo: "We better give Obama props, 'cause what we got in office now's a kamikaze that'll probably cause a nuclear holocaust - and while the drama pops, and he waits for s--- to quiet down, he'll just gas his plane up and fly around 'till the bombing stops."
"Intensity's heightened, tensions are rising. Trump, when it comes to giving a s---, you're as stingy as I am."
The multiplantinum-selling rapper hit on several grievances about Trump in his rhymes; the video of which was set at his Detroit home with a crew and a collection of classic cars as his backdrop.
