Old Eminem Rap Comes Back To Haunt Him

The New York Daily News reports The Source magazine executives David Mays and Raymond ‘Benzino’ Scott aired the Eminem track about his breakup with a black girlfriend in 1993. “Black girls only want your money cause they’re dumb chicks,” Slim Shady raps. “Never date a black girl because blacks only want your money, and that s– ain’t funny … black girls and white girls just don’t mix, because black girls are dumb and white girls are good chicks.” Mays said that Eminem must be “held accountable” for the 10-year-old track. In his statement, Eminem fired back at Benzino, Mays and The Source, saying that they have had “a vendetta against me, Shady Records and our artists for a long time. The tape they played today was something I made out of anger, stupidity and frustration when I was a teenager. I’d just broken up with my girlfriend, who was African-American, and I reacted like the angry, stupid kid I was. I hope people will take it for the foolishness that it was, not for what somebody is trying to make it into today.”
