Nick Cannon Says There’s Video of Eminem ‘Sucking a Cock’

If you woke up to the trending hashtag #RIPNickCannon and thought the man best known as Mariah Carey's ex-husband had died, you're not totally wrong. He's still technically alive, but after releasing a homophobic diss track aimed at Eminem, he may not be long for this world.

Cannon dropped "The Invitation" on Monday, in which he attempted to drag the rapper with a litany of insults, including claims that Eminem is secretly gay and has paid off his sexual partners to keep it secret.

"I heard your chauffeur got a video of you sucking a cock," Cannon raps on the track. "You paid him off then laid him off / Now who really the opps."

Cannon later claimed that the homophobic lyrics were based in truth and the Eminem's legal team is trying to silence him. "FACTS," he wrote while quoting a tweet with the lyrics. "His lawyers didn't want that one out! They already on my line."

Eminem fired off a few tweets in response. "U mad bro," he asked Cannon. "Stop lying on my dick. I never even had a chauffeur, you bougie f*ck." He also demanded an apology from "Nicholas," joking that his staff was upset they hadn't gotten the same treatment as the alleged chauffeur. "You've made my gardener so jealous!"

Eminem has his own history of homophobic lyrics, including calling Tyler the Creator a faggot on the song "Fall" from his album Kamikaze, something he later apologized for. "I was angry when I said the shit about Tyler," he explained. "The word that I called him on the album, on that song was one of the things where I felt like, 'This might be too far.' Because in my quest to hurt him, I realized that I was hurting a lot of other people by saying it."

In October, a track called "What If I Was Gay" leaked online, with Eminem and rapper Joyner Lucas speculating how their friendship would handle one of them revealing they were queer. Should we be expecting a new track called "What If I Sucked Off My Chauffeur"?
