Eminem – whose real name is Marshall Bruce Mathers III – has spent the last 23 years of his career dissing many celebrities including former president Donald Trump, rumoured ex Mariah Carey and late king of pop Michael Jackson.
Continuing to reveal his 'philosophy' behind who he decides will get dissed next, the 8 Mile rapper continued onto say: "I've never met these people in my life".
Earlier this week, Dr. Dre sparks a massive online debate about who could go against Eminem in a VERZUZ battle after posting a video of the legendary rapper showing of his rapping ability captioning the post: "Marshall Mathers vs Who???!!".
The comments section included responses implying that Eminem has no equal. One person commented:
"Nobody don't want these problems", whilst others agreed, stating, "Vs no one." "Period" and "against nobody". Some even suggest Jay-Z might be his only competitor, which has furthered the recent talk of who can battle against Hov.
