What is freestyle without the Rap god?
Eminem has released a new 11-minute freestyle titled ‘Kick Off’, in which he references a lot of things, including the bombing at Ariana Grande‘s Manchester Arena show.
Recorded visually at St. Andrew’s in Detroit, the simple video shows Eminem spit impassioned barz like he is known to do.
“I’ve always looked at battle rap as competition or war,” Eminem introduces the new cut. “And the main objective is to destroy. Completely fucking obliterate your opponent. By saying anything and everything, whatever the fuck you can, to get a reaction from the crowd. So nothing’s off limits.”
During ‘Kick Off”s first verse, Eminem went back to 2017’s suicide bombing at Manchester Arena.
He rapped: “Like an Islamic regime, a jihadist extreme radical / Suicide bomber that’s seeing / Ariana Grande sing her last song of the evening / And as the audience from the damn concert is leaving / Detonates the device strapped to his abdominal region/ I’m not gonna finish that for obvious reasons.”
Elsewhere, the rapper aim a dig at other artists with the line: “The bear you don’t want to poke is back, the backbone of rap/ Your fucking lead singles are my bonus tracks.“
Meanwhile, Eminem’s Bodied was released in the US last month. The anticipated film is billed as a satirical send-up of the rap battles that proved integral to the early stages of Mathers’ career.
