Candace Owens responds to Eminem after the Detroit icon dissed her on 12th solo studio album, The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce).

On the track titled “Lucifer,” Slim Shady throws shots at the conservative pundit, spitting the lines, “And Candace O, I ain’t mad at her (Ah) / I ain’t gon’ throw the fact b–ch forgot she was Black back at her / Laugh at her like them crackers she’s backin’ after her back is turned / In a cute MAGA hat with her brand-new White Lives Matter shirt (Haha, nope) / Or say this MAGA dirtbag in a skirt / Just opened the biggest can of worms on the whole planet Earth / Call her “Grand Wizard” (Yeah), “Klandace” (Haha), or “Grand Dragon,” or Like the national anthem, I won’t stand for the tramp (Why?) / But I can’t diss her ’cause my plans are to get in her pants and I’ll blow my chance if I answer back to her.”

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: “Yeah, this whole sub-genre with all these corny white rappers, I’m not a fan of it / It ain’t my fault, but like sock puppets, I had a hand in it / This thousand bucks in my hand is just like what Candace did / When she turned her back on her own race ’cause I have abandoned it…”

Shortly after the album dropped on Friday (July 12, 2024), 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 Marshall’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.”
