Machine Gun Kelly (MGK) has reignited his longstanding feud with Eminem, this time with a bold declaration: “Rap God, my ass!” This fiery statement underscores the animosity that has simmered between the two rappers for years, stemming from a series of provocative tweets and diss tracks.
The conflict began when MGK tweeted about Eminem’s daughter, which he intended as a compliment. However, the tweet was misinterpreted, leading to accusations of disrespect. MGK claims this incident had severe repercussions on his career, with radio stations allegedly banning his music and Eminem taking steps to undermine him professionally.
In 2018, after years of tension, MGK decided to take direct aim at Eminem, particularly in his song “No Reason.” This act of defiance prompted Eminem to fire back with his own diss track, “Not Alike,” further fueling the rivalry.
The tension reached new heights when MGK released “Rap Devil,” a track that showcased his lyrical prowess and seemingly landed a hit against the legendary rapper. MGK’s bold lines challenged Eminem’s status, asserting that he was unbothered by the so-called “Rap God.” In interviews, Eminem dismissed the feud as inconsequential, stating he never saw MGK as a threat.
Fans speculated whether the feud was a clever marketing ploy, especially given that both artists are signed to Interscope Records. The drama only intensified with rumors of their producers being linked to both artists’ diss tracks, raising questions about the authenticity of the rivalry.
Adding fuel to the fire, MGK faced a separate controversy when an altercation with an actor escalated into a physical confrontation, further tarnishing his reputation at a crucial time.
With his latest remarks, MGK makes it clear that he’s not backing down. As the rivalry continues, fans are left wondering how far both artists will go in this ongoing saga, and whether MGK will continue to challenge Eminem’s legacy in the hip-hop world.
