Following a standout collaboration on the gold-certified Music To Be Murdered By, Eminem and KXNG Crooked will be reuniting once again -- albeit in a different capacity together. This Friday Slim is set to sit down for a conversation on Crook's Corner, marking his first major interview since 2018's four-part Kamikaze talk with Sway Calloway and his lengthy conversation with LL Cool J on Rock The Bells Radio.
In many ways, Crook's Corner is the perfect platform for Eminem. A place for two rap nerds to discuss the craft free from ulterior motives. It's clear that Crook holds Em in high regard, having defended his honor during the infamous Joe Budden beef, and the pair have been steadily building on their collaborations. Following "I Will," we've already seen songs like "Loud Noises," "Session One" "Psychopath Killer," and "Our House" showcase their chemistry on wax.
As of this moment it's unclear as to what the interview will cover, but fans of both artists and hip-hop as an artistic medium will likely want to catch this one on Friday. As far as technical ability is concerned, Eminem and Crook are elite in every category, ranging from flow to punchlines -- it should be interesting to hear their thoughts on the current state of the game. It's going to be a big day for Slaughterhouse fans, who can check this out before or after peeping that new Royce Da 5'9" album The Allegory, on which Crooked himself is set to appear.
Lord Jamar Blasts Eminem: "You Filthy Piece Of Trailer Park Sh*t"
The Lord Jamar remix of “Stepdad” is coming soon.
Following the release of Eminem‘s Music To Be Murdered By, which featured some bars aimed at his old pal Lord Jamar, it seemed inevitable that the Godcast host would have something to say. Naturally, he linked up with VladTV for another interview and it didn’t take long for Jamar’s animosity to reach a boiling point.
“He made a whole song about me,” says Jamar. “Stepdad! The whole song ‘Stepdad!'” Vlad appears confused, and Jamar sings the chorus for his benefit. “‘Ain’t he talking about me? No!? I thought ‘Stepdad’ is the one he’s talking about me. Which song are you talking about? Oh the one where he had a little verse about me? Nah, that ain’t as good as the ‘Stepdad!’ ‘Stepdad’ is banging! That shit rocks! That’s a whole song about me!”

After clarifying that the song in question is “I Will,” Jamar admits to having heard it. “I thought ‘Stepdad’ was much better,” continues Jamar, doubling down on the Eminem lyric impressions before cycling back to “I Will.” “It was almost Slaughterhouse, but no Joe so it falls short,” reasons Jamar. “I know what he said! Don’t read his lyrics for him. I know what this bitch-ass said. And? And what? I’m still unscathed! Guess what, muthafuckas still ain’t listening to that in the hood…They gotta read about it, because again my point is proven, nobody listens to your fuckin’ shit!”
“I figured out that I live rent-free in Eminem’s fuckin brain,” he continues. “I got squatters rights in that bitch. And might I say, it’s fuckin’ filthy in there. Okay? He talks about yeah, I’d be cleaning the sinks for Rakim. Yeah, we clean our fucking houses you filthy piece of trailer park shit. We clean our fucking houses. Cleanliness is next to godliness. I’d be glad to clean the house of hip-hop’s sink. Your trailer park is filthy. But I’m in here chilling — you’ll have to call the ‘Marshalls’ to get me out.”

Eminem Continues To Fire Shots At Lord Jamar On "I Will"
Eminem’s new album “Music To Be Murdered By” continues his streak of controversial takes.
At the wee hours of the morning, Eminem swung in with a brand new album titled, Music To Be Murdered By. The project came at a surprise with no forewarning but as expected, the middle-aged rapper took to wax to air out his grievances. Among his targets was Lord Jamar who’s been having back and forths with Eminem indirectly over the years.
On “I Will,” Eminem takes direct aim at Lord Jamar once again. Em’s previously done this on his album Kamikaze while Lord Jamar has continued to egg on the Detroit native during Vlad TV interviews.
I’m more than you bargained for and I am far more worse than a fourty-some bar Lord Jamar verse / Nothing means more than respect, so when I curse / You could say I swore to protect / My image I have zero time or regard for/ I never was, been claiming rap when it’s not yours/ If it was anyone’s house G Rap and Rakim would be havin’ you mop floors / Run-DMC would be havin’ you cleanin’ sinks / Yeah, your group was off the chain, but you were the weakest link
This is clearly in reference to Jamar’s claim that Em is a guest in the house of hip-hop. Clearly, it’s been weighing on Eminem’s mind for a hot minute. Will 2020 be the year they put their differences aside? Probably not.
