Eminem isn’t done taking shots at Sean “Diddy” Combs. On “Fuel – Shady Edition,” included on the freshly released “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce): Expanded Mourner’s Edition,” the rapper resurfaces accusations that Combs had something to do with the murders of the Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur, claims he previously made on the original version of “Fuel” and on 2018’s “Killshot.”
On “Fuel – Shady Edition,” which originally featured JID, Em unloads a few bars against Combs after a few verses from Westside Boogie and Grip. “Notorious B.I.G.’s death was the domino effect of Tupac’s murder / Like facial tissue, whose card should I clean next? Puff’s?” he raps. “‘Til he’s in police handcuffs, guilty, will he step up? / Like gee, never turned himself in, who knows all the murders there’ll have been / Or me mixed up, prepare for me to not choose none of my words carefully.”
Eminem initially lobbed this claim at Diddy on “Killshot,” a diss record towards MGK who was signed to Combs’ Bad Boy Records. “Kells, the day you put out a hit’s the day Diddy admits / That he put the hit out that got Pac killed,” rapped Em on the track.
For those who listened to “The Death of Slim Shady” when it was released in July, Eminem was consistently throwing shots at Combs and mentioned him several times throughout the album. On “Antichrist,” he referenced the horrific video of Combs assaulting his ex-girlfriend Cassie Ventura; on “Bad One,” he mentions the allegation that Combs planted an explosive in Kid Cudi’s car while he was dating Ventura.
And, on the original “Fuel,” he made yet another claim that Combs was responsible for Biggie and Tupac’s deaths.
Combs is currently facing an onslaught of legal issues since Ventura filed a suit against him in November. Most recently, former Danity Kane member Dawn Richard sued Combs this week, accusing him of sexual battery and assault during the decade that they worked together.
