Log on and the blogs are going bananas over this diss track from Eminem. I've read some that think Em is wrong for "attacking" Mariah and some that think she had it coming. Ugh... i say... this is going to be funny.
Cant say that I didn't know that it was coming and i totally agree that she's getting what she deserve. Mariah's last video "Obsessed" shows a Eminem look-a-like - played by Mariah Carey- acting like a damn stalker and obsessing over the Butterfly singer. Thought he was gonna say "Oh that's just MC being crazy."? Negative.
While funny - not like LMMFAO Dave Chappelle funny but like ha ha ha Wild N Out Nick Cannon funny- I still don't think she planned this one out.
Now, I get it... the goal is to achieve high record sales, gain publicity for an album release and market the new song. Mission accomplished-- I was borderline interested and MAY by the CD -
BUT- one must wonder if the talented singer had a damn back up plan. Like my mama said- "Don't go to a gun fight with a paperclip" or something like that. Your plan of attack has to be well thought out and one must ask the what if's and plan for retaliation. Did she ask herself: What if he still got the voice mails i left for him? What if he got the sextape?
Sorry, but you take a highly successful rapper- known for being a lyrical genius with the ability to destroy a beat- and a attention whore pop singer with a wack ass "rapper" husband- really, who do you expect to win a "battle"?
How do you come back from "Listen, girly. Surely you don't want me to talk about how I nutted early cos ejaculated early and bus all over your belly, and you almost started hurling and said I was gross, go get a towel you're stomachs curling." ? You cant. See- Eminem- in true Eminem fashion- did that 8 mile shit and started dissing himself so that Ms. Butterfly wouldn't have anything to come back with.
I love Mariah- got all her C.D's... even watched Glitter **insert sad face**... but this act of rehashing a "beef" can go on her "top things I did that i wish i wouldn't have done after marrying Nick Cannon" list. Could she not pick a fight with someone of her caliber? Why not dress up like Tommy Mottola or clown Whitney. Yeah- Whitney... Between Bobby Brown and her coke habit, Mariah would've had plenty of ammunition for an attack. Whitney got an album coming out too so it would've been perfect! Too late for the shoulda, coulda, woulda's...
Now, she can take the "high road" and not respond to Eminem while going on talk shows and calling him childish or she can come back with her own diss track written by her husband- the same nigga that wrote Gigolo. Yeah, neither are too good of an option but that's what happens when you're someone known for singing about butterflies, cabbage patch dolls and rainbows and attack a dude that would diss his own mother and wife and do it well.
Sorry Ms. Carey-Cannon this is a huge FAIL for you.
Sad face...

Its cool that your Mariah fan too so views are more objective. I asked this of a few industry folk cuz it always confused me. Why do people think beef sells records? Aside from this situation that I think Em started** but regardless. I cant really think of an album that sold major due to beef in hiphop...let alone in R&B.
You could maybe say 50's get Rich or Die Trying but that was a genuinely good record.
I think the consumer is too smart to fall for that.
omg!!! he got her bad!!! my jaw was dropped.. im ready to see the evidence he was talkin bout!! SHOW US THE PICTURES!! wow!! but yea... what did she expect??? this is eminem we're talking about. his whole rap career is based on basically making fun of other ppl. and he was smart too.. already saying any possible comeback she could say. leaving her with nothing. doubt she "comes back" tho. not after that!
@nightfall- I think you just like to dispute everything LOL
Beef sells records. Well, good beef... U.See.Drama.A'coming Certified beef. Nas & Jay Z-- Good beef. Eminem and Mariah- OK but Im not calling this one beef and it's only OK because Eminem has a way of belittling people and making it so damn funny. Also, this is the first time that a rapper has ever attacked a singer... take away the fact that its male vs female and its still ingenious and quite entertaining.
Im not sure that Eminem defending his name is starting a beef and I dont think he did it for publicity or to sell records. He did what rappers do when someone tells lies on them- address it in a song and keep it moving. We cant say that he started it simply because he replied to a fabrication made by Ms. Carey.
Other records that sold well because of beef??? The Bridge is Over and The Real Roxanne were one of the originals. Shit, battling and beef is what Hip Hop, well good Hip Hop, is. Without a little beef in the game, we'd have a bunch of Will Smiths. Now let me get off this Brown Sugar shit...
@ starz- arent you entertained by this??? Dude, this made my day. LMAO.
....if u were in my office you'd see why I keep this going. But it's almost Alcohol time?
*rubbing hands together with glee* oooohhh this is gonna get gooood! Oh lord, his disses are so harsh!
Can't wait to see how this unfolds!
this beef would have been really interesting if it happened years ago when the two of them were still relevant.
lmao@khaki breaking it down. I GOTS to go listen to this joint now. mariah should have known better.
LMAO...Mariah play too damn much she knew Em was going to deep fry the shit outta her ass,my opinion just mines alone is she secrectly want Em's undivided attention again,she seems like the type who like when a dude go in on her orj ust flat out carry her for no reason looking ass.
LOL am i the only one who thinks this proves how obsessed he is tho? Yeah Mariah started but Em's STILL got pictures? Really? REAAAALLLY? STILL?? wtf are they there for porno?
tsk tsk!
