By Haadiza Ogwude, Contributor
As seen on Pitchfork, rapper Eminem, who is notorious for blatantly naming celebrities in his lyrics, recently mentioned Lana Del Ray in a cypher promoting the new two-disc Shady Records greatest hits compilation Shady XV. Eminem stated in his lyrics:
“But I may fight for gay rights, especially if they dyke is more of a knockout than Janay Rice/ Play nice? Bitch I’ll punch Lana Del Rey right in the face twice, like Ray Rice in broad daylight in the plain sight of the elevator surveillance/ ’Til her head is banging on the railing, then celebrate with the Ravens.”
Female rapper Azealia Banks responded on Twitter, “@LanaDelRey but does Eminem know that I will personally punch him in his mouth?!” Banks also stated, “ @LanaDelRay tell him to go back to his trailer park and eat his microwave hotpocket dinner and suck on his sisters tiddies.”
Many other pop culture figures voiced opinions on the matter via Twitter as well. You can see the full video on Vevo.
