“I Think You Mean Feminem”: Internet Reacts to Lil Pump’s Diss of Eminem Following Trump’s Presidential Victory
Lil Pump Sparks Controversy with Eminem Diss Following Trump’s Victory
On November 6, 2024, American rapper Lil Pump ignited a social media firestorm when he posted a provocative tweet aimed at Eminem after Donald Trump’s presidential victory. The tweet succinctly expressed his disdain:
“F*ck Eminem”
The rapper’s comment drew immediate reactions from the online community, particularly since Eminem had previously endorsed Kamala Harris during the election campaign. Many users on X (formerly Twitter) voiced their opinions, some mocking Eminem’s political stance.
Public Reactions to Lil Pump’s Tweet
Social media users did not hold back in their responses. Some took to humor to criticize Eminem’s support for Harris:
“I think you mean Feminem.”
“F*ck wokeminem,”an X user commented.
“Em has lost a LOT of his fans. I’m one of them,”another user remarked.
One user expressed disappointment over Eminem’s choice of endorsement, saying:
“Most disappointing endorsement by far,”they noted.
Conversely, Eminem’s fans defended the rapper against Lil Pump’s diss:
“One rule, never diss Eminem. Lmao,”noted another user.
“Nah you still have time to delete this tweet,”another countered.
“You still haven’t recovered from Eminem’s line ‘Lil Pump, Lil Xan, Imitate Lil Wayne.’ That was 2018 bro, move on,”an internet user stated.
Lil Pump’s Further Criticism of Eminem
On October 23, 2024, Eminem made headlines by speaking at a rally supporting Kamala Harris in Detroit, where he also welcomed former President Barack Obama. The following day, Lil Pump took to Instagram Live to express his outrage over Eminem’s political endorsement. He stated:
“Eminem, you are a f*cking piece of s*it for going on stage speaking on Kamala Harris s*it. You are a f*cking piece of s*it for going on and making a speech with f*cking Obama.”
In a controversial turn, Pump also mentioned Eminem’s daughter, saying, “f*ck Hailie.”
The Roots of Their Feud
The ongoing tension between Eminem and Lil Pump can be traced back to December 2020, when Lil Pump targeted Eminem in an Instagram story. In the video, Pump exclaimed:
“F**k Eminem. You is lame as hell, ain’t nobody listening to your old a*s. You lame as f**k, b***h! I woke up on bulls**t today, I’m back on my f*ck s**t.”
Analysts believe Pump’s grievances stem from Eminem’s track “The Ringer,”which references several rising artists, including Lil Pump himself. During an Instagram Live with Fat Joe, Pump appeared to distance himself from his previous comments, stating:
“Who? I don’t remember that. I told you, it ain’t my fault, I was asleep. I’m so sorry about that.”
Although Pump had not addressed Eminem for a significant period since making those remarks, his recent comments reignited the feud, furthering the debate about their conflicting political views.
Future Implications and Trends in Hip-Hop Politics
Interestingly, Lil Pump had previously announced plans to release a diss track targeting both Kamala Harris and Joe Biden during one of Trump’s rallies. However, on August 13, 2024, he altered his course, stating on X that he would instead create a pro-Trump song, claiming he did not wish to “stoop down to the level of liberals.”
“I don’t want to stoop down to the level of liberals,”Lil Pump proclaimed.
As Donald Trump prepares to take the office as the 47th President of the United States, the intersection of hip-hop and politics remains as contentious and vibrant as ever.
