The rising beef between Machine Gun Kelly and Eminem has hit a critical mass today with Shady letting rip a searing retaliatory diss track against the Cleveland rapper.
Dubbed ‘Killshot’, the tune is a 4+ minute spray of Shady shade featuring the veteran rapper jabbing the knife deep into MGK over his record sales (or lack thereof), his age, his bad attitude and his man bun, featuring scorching lines like “I’m 45 and I’m still outselling you / By 29 I had three albums that had blew” and “I’d rather be 80-year-old me than 20-year-old you.”
During his rhyme assault, Em also reduces Kelly to his iconic crazed superfan character, Stan, spitting: “Here’s that autograph for your daughter, I wrote it on a Starter cap. Stan, son, listen, man, dad isn’t mad/ But how you gonna name yourself after a damn gun and have a man bun?”
OOof.
ICYMI: earlier this month, after getting dissed on Em’s surprise album Kamikaze, MGK released his own diss track dubbed ‘Rap Devil‘ during which he accused Slim of trying to blackball him from the music industry as retribution for tweeting about his daughter, Hailie, being “hot as fuck” back in 2012 (FYI Hailie was underage at the time so… ew).
It comes after Em admitted a homophobic Tyler, The Creator diss that he included on Kamikaze maybe went “too far”.
But he doesn’t seem to harbour any regrets about his barbs against Machine Gun.

Your move, MGK.
