LOS ANGELES, Oct. 20 (UPI) — Eminem slammed Donald Trump and Trump supporters in a new 8-minute song, Campaign Speech, which the rapper released Wednesday with the promise of a new album.
“Don’t worry I’m working on an album! Here’s something meanwhile,” Eminem tweeted along with links to the new track.
In the expletive-laced song, Slim Shady references everything from Colin Kaepernick to Trayvon Martin to Stacey Dash, while making it clear what he thinks of the Republican presidential candidate.
“Consider me a dangerous man/ But you should be afraid of this dang candidate/ You say Trump don’t kiss [expletive] like a puppet?/ ‘Cause he runs his campaign with his own cash for the funding?/ And that’s what you wanted?/ A [expletive] loose cannon who’s blunt with his hand on the button/ Who doesn’t have to answer to no one?/ Great idea!” he raps in a verse before saying he’d like to “send Dylan Roof through the windshield of the Benz.”
The song has drawn criticism from David Duke, the former Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan, who claimed Eminem has been “poisoning the minds of our youth.”
The upcoming still-untitled album would be Eminem’s ninth. His first commercially successful record, “The Slim Shady LP,” was released in 1999.
