Royce Da 5'9 blasts Lil Pump for Eminem diss, fans recall MGK: 'Tuff talk from all these harmless creatures'
Lil Pump may have bitten off more than he can chew when he decided to throw shade on Eminem – during Christmas Eve – as it looks like the action of his insults has come back to bite him, and hard. If you've ever witnessed beef or disses aimed at Eminem, you'll know that it usually doesn't end well for the offenders, but instead of the 'Rap God' firing back, Royce Da 5’9 has chosen to obliterate one Lil Pump.
For unknown reasons, Lil Pump took to his social media recently to diss Eminem. In a new Instagram Stories video, he ranted, "F*ck Eminem, you is lame as hell, ain't nobody listening to your old ass.” He then expressed with a smirk, "You lame as f*ck, b*tch! I woke up on bullsh*t today, I'm back on my f*ck sh*t." Watch the video here.
Fans on Twitter were on the edge of their seats in anticipation of return fire from Eminem, but shortly after Pump's post, Eminem's friend of over 20 years, rapper Royce Da 5’9, dropped a few lines to shut him down. "I'll slap them glasses so far off his face, they'll land in a whole nother genre," he says. "Not cuz I'm mad but just cuz I'm exhausted with all the tuff talk from all these harmless creatures," the rapper continued. Read his response here.
Royce then concluded, "Enjoy yourself. You actually make money off blatant misappropriation while not being really good at anything."
Fans on Twitter are supporting Eminem and Royce's response. "That’s needed for sure... he needs to be quiet," says a fan while another wrote, "What other genres could he possibly torture? He won't be as lucky as the last one." One fan said, "Can’t believe people even attempt to diss Eminem."
That’s needed for sure... he need to be quiet

Fans are also recalling the time Machine Gun Kelly attempted to diss Eminem. "Lol... That's what happened to MGK" a fan says. Another added, "Eminem ended MGK. Now he’s going to end this guy."
Lol... That's what happened to MGK

For those unaware of the Eminem-MGK beef, it all started in 2012 when Machine Gun Kelly tweeted about a photo of Eminem’s teenaged daughter: “I have to say, she is hot as f**K, in the most respectful way possible cuz Em is king." Like any proud father, such a tweet didn't sit well for Eminem, and he brought it up in his 'Kamikaze' track 'Not Alike', which features Royce da 5’9”. Although, the rapper did eventually explain that MGK's comment wasn't the reason for dissing in the song but for "petty" reasons.
In a 2018 interview up on YouTube, he said, “The reason that I dissed him is that he got on—first he said, ‘I'm the greatest rapper alive since my favorite rapper banned me from [radio channel] Shade 45,’ or whatever he said, right?
“Like I'm trying to hinder his career. I don't give a f**k about your career. You think I actually f**kin’ think about you? You know how many f**kin’ rappers that are better than you? You're not even in the f**kin’ conversation.”
Move on to MGK's diss track 'Rap Devil' and things started getting a little more heated. In the song, MGK mocks Eminem’s beard by calling it weird and saying it needs to be shaved off, he talks about finding it ironic how the tough-talking Eminem pays millions of dollars every year for security, like Lil Pump's comment, it disses Em's age and more.
In his final response, Eminem then released 'Killshot' which ended it all. If you haven't already heard it, listen to it below, and you will know why. Read Mumble rapper Lil Pump calls himself 'the New Age Michael Jackson': Here are 3 reasons why he's not
