Eminem Disses Diddy Multiple Times on New Album, ‘The Death of Slim Shady’

It wouldn’t be an Eminem album without some choice and often off-color-if-not-offensive words for fellow hip-hop luminaries, and the veteran rapper’s just-released 12th studio LP, “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce),” singles out Kanye West, Ja Rule and even Lizzo, along with Caitlyn Jenner, the late Christopher Reeve and his own mother. However, he saved his most vicious attacks for Sean “Diddy” Combs, who has been slammed with multiple sexual assault or misconduct lawsuits amid allegations reaching back decades.

The first salvo comes in the song “Antichrist,” which references the horrifying video of Combs beating ex-girlfriend Cassie in a hotel hallway. (Lyric transcriptions from Genius.com)
