Unaccommodating is the opening track on the star's 11th album, Music To Be Murdered By, which he released, unannounced, on Friday morning.
In a stark contrast to the Manchester Arena lyric, the album's lead single, Darkness, advocates tighter gun control laws in the US. The video ends with a montage of news reports from recent mass shootings, captioned:"When will it end? When enough people care."
BBCWorld He should sing about what he wants and I am not even a fan
Not even a good song... such shit.... what a waste
Don't forget this photo. lol African American 'Paris'? on T-shirt. Paris was a popular Islamic rapper in the 90's, my head hurts trying to find anything worth listening in American music. lol
BBCWorld Why does eminem make such hurtful lyrics.Who does this so called musician think he is ?Maybe he should keep his gob shut and be grateful for the living his fans give hi
I conform to the rickygervais school of thought that every topic should be open to ridicule..BUT...maybe as I’m from MCR, that I know people affected, that they were kids maybe at their 1st concert or that it’s still RAW I don’t like this but I will listen myself B4 I get upset.
Can “IT” still read?
BBCWorld Think he should be criticized more for being boring.
BBCWorld Will the real slim shady please stand up? Yes 🙋🏾♂️
You find this offensive a find you offensive for finding this offensive
Not for me, sorry damiansmith85
Was this the same rap where there is mention of El Paso Texas, Gilroy California, Vegas (amongst others) and Many school shootings? I wonder, did these 'critics' watch the music video at the end where it adverts registering to vote to amend the out of date gun laws in the USA?
W......r
Eminem rapped about it before in a sensitive way and idiots still criticised. He also helped raise £2million for the victims families so maybe promote that and the anti gun crime lead single instead of one throw away line 🤷♂️
he didnt say he enjoyed it, he just referenced that it happened. And it did happen didnt it? And he wasnt involved was he? He can talk about it.
Pathetic how most of you haven't listened to the song. He's expressing anger, not promoting it.
Can you all listen to the song first and then make assumptions 🙄 He’s trying to bring awareness
BBCWorld
BBCWorld How else would he get back into the news?
BBCWorld U missed the point. Listen one more time n try again...
BBCWorld He's plannin.. Plannin while ya panickin. You usin too many napkins, Bapkins
BBCWorld Eminem has been saying offensive things for FOUR DECADES. You'd think the easily offended would've learned to tune him out by now. 🤷♂️
How to get attention...
BBCWorld If you dont like it dont listen to it ffs its pretty simple
Imagine defending this 🤦♂️
BBCWorld When hasn’t he caused controversy, just shut up
Jeez, that's pretty tame for an Eminem lyric. Don't let these people look at his back catalogue!
BBCWorld That’s a bold strategy cotton
But still we're not criticising the religion responsible ...
I just dont think it was very necessary or was in good taste to mention it, he could've used so many other similes
Slow news day....
BBCWorld Also in today’s news Eminem don’t give a fuck.
BBCWorld
🤣🤣🤣
The BBC criticises Eminem harder for words than they do the religion that spawned this atrocity. Pretty typical BBC behaviour. A Poor lyric from Eminem.
BBCWorld ....
BBCWorld
Freedom of speech. Don't like it? Shove off to China.
Although this is utterly deplorable it also highlights the hypocrisy of the public who'd would be in even more of an uproar if the rap contained lyrics which branded a Muslim with terrorism.
It's a lyric. Made up stuff. Grow up. The USA is led by a man who said he 'grabs women by the pussy'.
U can say he was mocking it or u can say he wasnt but personally I think he hasn't done anything wrong. It's a song not a quote that he as said.
BBCWorld eminem wants some attention ....and you gave it to him
Its standard eminem. How is anyone shocked by this.
Eminem “piggybacking off the fame of Justin bieber and Ariana Grande” 😂😂😂
That didn't take long...
BBCWorld How is this news?
Like it didn't happen..🙄😏
BBCWorld He is just an I D I O T
Why cant celebrities just retire gracefully instead of been desperate to stay relevant.
He's just trying to appear relevant.
I'm one of the first to complain about people being too easily offended, but this shit goes too far.
Wow he raps about shit that has happened 🙀 be mad at the bombers ffs 🙄
Boomer Desperately Tries to Remain Relevant by Resorting to Crude Shock Tactics
2000 called it wants its outrage back
BBCWorld 1 you completely ignored the context and 2 is this your first time hear an Eminem song?
Now look at everyone. Remembering the horrible attack. Bet 99% of people wouldn't of even thought of what happened. Remember to be vigilant. The world is full of evil people. Well done eminem for reminding us that must never forget
Lol honestly, you got to make an article on this thrown away line
You guys don't just get and fucking misunderstood it... It's a song, he's making reference to remind the world to stand up and do something about it... Verse attack on NRA: 'They love their guns more than our children.' ~ Eminem
BBCWorld He's irrelevant. Stop making news about him.
This is his USP. 21 years later still no change. I feel old.
Old fella needs to retire. Noone's listening to him anymore - less Eminem and more Feminem in play now. Enough said.
BBCWorld
BBCWorld Isn't Ariana Grande financed by Weapons Dealers?
Britain invaded Iraq and killed thousands of people so the Manchester attack was a result of that.
BBCWorld Oh! So what do we do ignore it? People are so afraid of the truth ? Why? Pray Why?..over 50 people died that night..nobody talks about it? Why?
BBCWorld I don't think Marshall cares though
Hi kids...
BBCWorld Oh stop your whining you shaky tart.
BBCWorld Idiot
BBCWorld I mean... he’s done worse but ok
BBCWorld Yet darkness is a song entirely about school shootings and the Las Vegas shooting... if you’re gonna bash him for lyrics atleast make it consistent 🤦🏼♂️
BBCWorld It's the irrevocable right of artists to say things that challenge our perceptions of the world we live in. It seems to me as apposite for Eminem to rap about a concert that was bombed as for Osama Bin Laden to object to nuclear bombing in 1945
What's so sacred about the Manchester attack? It was just 22 people. Britain invaded Iraq and killed far more people and I've seen lots of jokes, satire and rap lyrics about the Iraq war. There's nothing especially important about the victims of the Manchester attack.
Wow....is He still around?!!!
Retire
He mocks everyone from lgbt community
It was fake attack
BBCWorld It shouldn't be forgotten either. Of course depends if it was respectfully done or not.
BBCWorld It’s words. Stop.
BBCWorld O pîss off!!!! 😷
Completely pointless lyric that only exists for shock value. And it worked
BBCWorld Stop the Press. Eminem said something bad. Never mind the imploding Death Star we once called earth. He should have been Nice....
BBCWorld Fffffuuuccckkk himmm. No talent old slag. 😂
Lordy the media still plays into Eminem's game all these years later.
The Columbine line in Rap God and in I’m Back, anyone?
Isn’t this what he does to get noticed ? Clearly working!! Eminem TastlessLyrics same old!
Jeez, the complainers seem to have no idea about the context of the song. ‘When will it end’? Surely he’s confronting the issue of domestic and non domestic terrorism and pleading for it to stop? Sick of this ‘I’m so offended’ culture that’s going on.
How is this referencing an event offensive? Are we not allowed to speak of bad events that have happened? Also, there's no mention of his tweet calling for donations to help the victims of the attack. Weird that eh BBC.
BBCWorld Na na na na na Na na na na na Na na na na na Na na na na ...
the thing is Em is trying to bring out attention to whats happening in this sick world using his platform but these friking haters just don't get it, do they? these 9 year old fans!!
Rapper being criticised for something they said in a song shocker!
And here you all are promoting him. His got what he wanted a reaction. New CD soon, I take it.
And their goes his record sales
Someone is criticised for something...... Its more new if someone can make a statement without someone seeing their arse about it these days.
Aaaaaand that's how you make dumb lyrics famous.
Don’t listen then. Get a grip people.
Who?
Remember this?
Eminem can say whatever the fuck he wants.
So we can never speak about It again Ridiculous
