Nick Cannon revisits a longstanding public feud with Eminem, which began after Eminem commented on Cannon’s then-wife, Mariah Carey. In the coverage, Cannon describes the dispute as “disrespectful” toward Carey and frames his response as defending his marriage and standing.
The outlets connect the feud to Eminem’s earlier diss track, “Bagpipes From Baghdad” (2009), which Rolling Stone and Billboard say included lines implying a relationship with Carey. Billboard adds that Cannon later released a series of diss tracks toward Slim Shady in December 2019. Vice emphasizes Cannon’s ongoing feelings about Eminem’s tone and his reaction while discussing Carey.
While the details vary in how they foreground emotions versus a timeline of songs, all accounts focus on Cannon explaining why he took offense and how he responded to Eminem’s remarks about Carey.
