Eminem has been called “disgusting” and “pathetic” after rapping about the Manchester Arena bomb attack which happened in 2017.
The lyrics appear on his 11th album, Music To Get Murdered By which was released today, on the track “Unaccommodating”.
At one point on the song he says: “I’m contemplating yelling ‘bombs away’ on the game / Like I’m outside of an Ariana Grande concert waiting”.
This is not the first time Eminem has referenced the attack either. In a freestyle in 2018 he rapped about a brainwashed suicide bomber: “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.
People who lost loved ones in the attack have voiced their disapproval of the lyrics. Fans have also come forward to express their disappointment in the rapper.
