Eminem drops a new “Kick Off” Freestyle. Mentions Justin Bieber, Ariana Grande & more.
Eminem, Paul Rosenberg, and some other produced the new rap battle film called ‘Bodied‘ which released earlier this week. The movie made Eminem nostalgic about battle rap which he used to do during the start of his career and he decided to drop a new over 10-minute freestyle called “Kick Off“.
He felt inspired enough to publish the spiteful new tune on Friday evening after the release of his rap-battle thriller, Bodied. The 11-minute freestyle was captured live on the floor in Detroit’s St. Andrew’s Shelter, which Shady refers to as his “stomping grounds.” Reese Witherspoon, Justin Bieber, Christina Aguilera, and, unexpectedly, Ariana Grande were among the celebrities and singers referenced by the Rap God.
The 46-year-old is shown in a dimly lit area surrounded by metal bars, kegs, and pipes in the footage. As he looks dead center into the camera, he strides about the room with an anxious energy that seeps through in his words. He accuses the Manchester bomber, Salman Ramadan Abedi, of being “lost” and “brainwashed” into carrying out the heinous murder.
The freestyle was shot at the Shelter St. Andrew’s Hall In Detroit, Michigan. Watch it below.
