Eminem criticised for lyric about bomb at Ariana Grande gig

By Mark Savage

 

The lyric appears on the star's 11th album, Music To Get Murdered By, which was released on Friday / GETTY IMAGES

 

Eminem has been called "disgusting" and "pathetic" after rapping about the Manchester Arena bomb attack, which killed 22 people in 2017.

 

The lyric comes in a new song, Unaccommodating, in which the star boasts about his impact on hip-hop.

 

At one point, he says: "I'm contemplating yelling 'bombs away' on the game / Like I'm outside of an Ariana Grande concert waiting."

 

Figen Murray, whose son died in the attack, called the song "pointless".

The guy is a jerk, anything he says is insignificant.

 

You would hurt him more by just ignoring him.

I'm all for freedom of expression in the arts. But glorifying that piece of **** who blew up kids who were happily attending a music gig is going too far, IMO. It doesn't even make for good or clever lyrics.  It's as though he crowbarred it in there out of desperation to use it in a song.

 

Sadly this will give eminem all the publicity he hoped for.

I could have been telling them that before.

Eminem is close to 50 years old, and by now a has-been. To quote his own lyrics:

 

You thirty six year old bald headed fag, blow me
You don't know me, you're too old, let it go its over

 

Time to go the Snoop Dogg route and host a cooking show...

One of Nok Nois morlam dancers wanted me to take her to see 8 mile film with this <deleted> in it once, about 2002, laughed at most of it. What did people ever see in this idiot? The girl loved it though ????

Eminem is an IDIOT playing on his SO CALLED hard life that is insane. Try being sepperated from your brothers and shipped to other families. Try getting a disease 60 year old people get when you're 19, FORK HIM
