Eminem Shades Megan Thee Stallion and Tory Lanez Case In New Single

In a recent turn of events, Eminem stirred controversy with his new track 'Houdini' by referencing the unfortunate incident involving fellow rapper Tory Lanez shooting Megan Thee Stallion in the foot. The track, released on May 31st, reignited discussions around the altercation that took place back in July 2020 after a pool party at Kylie Jenner’s mansion. Stallion's courage in speaking out against Lanez's alleged actions was commendable, yet she faced backlash and doubt within the rap community, notably exemplified in Drake's track 'Circo Loco'. Lanez was later convicted and sentenced to ten years in prison for the incident. Eminem's inclusion of Stallion's ordeal in his lyrics prompted swift backlash from fans, who criticized him for exploiting her trauma and questioned whether it was an attempt to remain relevant in the industry as he ages.
