This afternoon, NPR had a special guest: Eminem. NPR isn't a rap station but Eminem's new album, Revival, is socially significant enough for NPR to just just interview him but to promote the interview all day Friday. They knew it would be a big deal, even beyond the (mostly) good music reviews. It should be no surprise that Em is no fan of Señor Trumpanzee-- but if it is... it won't be any longer, not after this album. There's even a fantasy, "Framed," about Ivanka in the trunk of his car, referring to her as "the dumb little blonde girl that motherfuckin’ baton twirler that got dumped in the pond."Here's a verse from "Like Home," which Alicia Keys joins him on:
Someone get this Aryan a sheet Time to bury him, so tell him to prepare to get impeachedEverybody on your feet This is where terrorism and heroism meets, square off in the streetsThis chump barely even sleepsAll he does is watch Fox News like a parrot and repeats While he looks like a canary with a beakWhy you think he banned transgenders from the military with a tweet?He's tryin' to divide usThe shit's like a cult, but like Johnny he'll only unite us'Cause nothin' inside drives us like this fight doesSimilar to when two cars collide 'causeOur spirit's crushed, and this spot's a tight oneBut here the jaws of life come To pull us from the wreckage that's what we get pride fromWhen we can't wear stars and stripes 'cause'Cause this type of pickle we're in is hard to dealBut there's always tomorrow still If we start from the scratch like a scab, get the scars to heal And band together for Charolettesville And for Heather, fallen heroes, fill this wall with murals Nevada get up, hit the damn resetter Let's start from zero, this is our renewal Spray tan, get ride of, get a brand new, better America, and here's to where we're from
OK, ok, one more verse... but that's it:
Didn't wanna piss your base off, did ya?Can't denounce the Klan, 'cause they play golf with yaYou stay on Twitter, way to get your hate off Nazi, I do not see a way y'all differAnd all you got are race cards Better get the swastika with your name carved in it Should be your trademark, 'cause hate's all you played off And you just lick the plate off So I guess it pays to feed off of chaos So basically, you're Adolf Hitler!But you ain't ruinin' our country, punk Or takin' our pride from us, you won't define us 'Cause like a dictionary, things are lookin' upSo much, got a sprained neck, know we would rise up Against this train wreck and take a standEven if it mean sittin' when they raise the flagThis ain't the Star Spangled BannerThis man just praised a statue of General Lee 'Cause he generally hates the black people, degrades hispanicsTake it back to the Shady national convention Wish I woulda spit on it before I went To shake his hand at the event Or maybe had the wherewithalTo know that he was gonna try to tear apartOur sacred land we cherish and stand forSo, hands in the air, let's hear it forThe start of a brand new AmericaWithout him, and be proud of where we're fromAnd here's to where we're from
