Rap star Eminem has revitalized his career with Trump-bashing songs. His latest surprise album, “Kamikaze,” takes yet another shot at the President in line with his last project, “Revival,” which came out earlier this year.
“Tried not 2 overthink this 1 … enjoy,” Eminem wrote on Twitter in announcing the new release.
According to The Guardian, in the first track, called “The Ringer,” Eminem references his two freestyles last year in which he blasted Trump as a “racist” while suggesting Trump would bring about nuclear war. He also castigated his own fans for liking Trump. “Any fan of mine who’s a supporter of his / I’m drawing in the sand a line, you’re either for or against,” he said at the time.
His latest song at least appears to regret some of those lyrics while bashing President Trump with the same fervor.
He sings in the new album: “That line in the sand, was it even worth it? / ‘Cause the way I see people turning is making it seem worthless / It’s starting to defeat the purpose / I’m watching my fan base shrink to thirds / And I was just trying to do the right thing.”
“But if I could go back, I’d at least reword it / And say I empathize with the people this evil serpent / Sold the dream to that he’s deserted,” the song continues.
At one point, Eminem even sings about how the Secret Service interviewed him.
“But I know at least he’s heard it / ‘Cause Agent Orange just sent the Secret Service / To meet in person to see if I really think of hurtin’ him / Or ask if I’m linked to terrorists,” he raps.
