Eminem Has Surprised People By Praising Taylor Swift While Shading Himself In A Bizarre New Video
And Eminem continued with the theme of his album by going head-to-head with an AI version of Slim in a new video created with Complex.
Slim retorts that he’d rather be canceled for being offensive than writing bad lyrics as he dragged a particularly weak bar from Eminem’s 2017 song “The Storm,” where the rapper rhymes: “Awfully hot coffee pot.”
Marshall then reflects on Slim’s origin story, saying: “I invented you because my life was fucked up, my music was going nowhere, and I was broke, but you didn’t fix anything. You actually made that shit worse.”

The video ends with Slim and Marshall sharing their appreciation for one another, before recreating Paul Rudd’s infamous Hot Ones meme, where the actor said: “Hey, look at us… Who would have thought?… Not me!”
And while the bizarre video has gone down incredibly well with most pop culture fans, there was one moment in particular that caught viewers off guard.
While throwing shade at Eminem, Slim pointedly told Marshall: “You’re not fucking Taylor Swift; you had one era that mattered: mine. Everything that people think of when they think of Eminem is fucking yours truly; from the blonde hair, to the middle finger, to the fucking jokes, all of it.”
Others recalled how Eminem defended then-19-year-old Taylor following the infamous Kanye West VMAs moment back in 2009, when Ye interrupted her acceptance speech to say that Beyoncé should have won instead.
