Candace Owens is firing back at Eminem after the Detroit legend dissed her on his new album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce).
On the track “Lucifer,” the 51-year-old rapper takes aim at the conservative pundit, spewing the lines, “And Candice O, I ain’t mad at her/ I ain’t gon’ throw the fact b– forgot she was Black back at her/ Laugh at her, like them crackers she’s backin’ after.”
Em also refers to Owens, 35, as a “MAGA dirtbag in a skirt” and drops such nicknames for her as “Grand Wizard,” “Klandace” and “Grand Dragon,” before scheming to plans to “get in her pants.”
Elsewhere on The Death of Slim Shady, the 15-time Grammy winner bashes Owens – a supporter of Donald Trump and a critic of Black Lives Matter – once again on the song “Bad One,” where he raps that “she turned her back on her own race.”
Shortly after the album dropped on Friday (July 12), Owens addressed the disses on her YouTube channel in an eight-minute diatribe, calling Eminem a “lefty elitist” who is “cosplaying a race that you aren’t.”
“You’re so irrelevant, your music isn’t good anymore,” she added, dubbing Em “granddad Shady.” “He is a lesson to a lot of people out there that you need to know when it’s time for you to retire.”
This isn’t the first time Eminem and Owens have clashed. In August 2023, she criticized the rapper’s age and speculated about his sexuality after he sent a cease-and-desist letter to then-Republican presidential hopeful Vivek Ramaswamy for using his music while campaigning.
“Some people also say that when we get older we get grayer. We know that’s true,” Owens said in a video on her YouTube channel. “But for Eminem, the once hardcore rapper, it seems that he is getting older and gayer. Yes, Eminem might be gay.”
The Death of Slim Shady boasts 19 tracks and includes previously released singles “Houdini” and “Tobey,” featuring Big Sean and BabyTron, along with a sequel to 1999’s “Guilty Conscience” with Dr. Dre. Eminem peppered collabs throughout the project with special guest appearances from Jelly Roll, J.I.D, Skylar Grey, Bizarre, Ez Mil, and more.
The new LP marks Em’s first album since 2020’s Music to Be Murdered By as he seeks a 10th consecutive chart-topper on the Billboard 200.
