| Eminem – Bagpipes From Baghdad Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This song was written for a few reaons including making fun of the autotuner, but mostly to provoke Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon. Eminem and Mariah Carey had a very very brief dating stint, and apparently she wouldnt let him "get past second base". Upon hearing this song cannon replied on his blog. "A mediocre (at best) Eminem record that sounds like it was written in 2001," Cannon blogged. "At first, I thought it was old material that had been dug up from when dude 'fantasized' about having a pretend fling with Mariah. ... But all of a sudden I hear my name in the verse! My first reaction was like, 'This is his new sh--? Wow, that's too bad.' " Cannon said that Eminem's insults amounted to "racist bigotry." "She has had enough difficulty in her life dealing with racial and ethnicity issues," he wrote. "Believe it or not, Mariah is the same racial mixture as our beloved president, Barack Obama. (Black Father + White Mother= BLACK) "Maybe I'm going too far, but I thought we got past the days where white men could spew vulgar obscenities at our beautiful queens and get away with it," Cannon continued. "What's next? Are we going to let this trash say something horrible about our lovely first lady, Mrs. Michelle Obama? Or would Marshall have talked sideways out of his neck like this about Oprah Winfrey? This act of racist bigotry cannot go unnoticed. Calling my wife a 'c---' and a 'whore' is way worse than anything Don Imus could have ever said. So trust, repercussions will be served. Anybody got Al Sharpton's number?! LOL Let's not forget about Eminem's amateur mixtape rants of calling African Americans 'ni----' and how he hates 'black bi---es.' " The actor basically vowed revenge on Slim Shady, joking that he would begin rapping again and threatening comedic retribution. "So, Miss Marshall, I'm going to make you wish you never spoke my name and regret the ungodly things you said about my wife," Cannon continued. "This is going to be fun! It's however you want it! Just remember, you did this to yourself! Your legacy has now been tainted from this day forth! You will now be known as the rapper who lost to corny-ass Nick Cannon!" Eminem acheived exactly what he wanted to do with this and most of his songs...provoke controversy. Sorry to say Nick you played right into his hands, and Eminem has more talent in his pinky finger than you will ever have. Favorite song on the CD, love the beat. |
