Lord Jamar reacts to Eminem “Guest in Hip-Hop” Stance on Vlad TV.
For well over a year, Eminem and Lord Jamar, two guys who will never be friends, have been at odds. It all began when Jamar attempted to minimize Em’s impact on hip-hop culture by comparing him to a houseguest and claiming that his mostly white fans disqualify him from consideration for the GOAT award. After Jamar made Eminem a talking topic throughout his different press tours, Em retaliated with songs like “Fall” from Kamikaze and “I Will” from “Music To Be Murdered By“. It seems like the feud between Eminem and Lord Jamar finally came to an end after the Detroit rapper recently admitted that he’s a guest in Hip-Hop, addressing Lord Jamar’s comments. Now Lord Jamar back on the Vlad TV to talk about Eminem’s stance and said that it was never a beef.
Shady went to KXNG Crooked’s Crook’s Corner, where he openly admitted to being a “guest” in hip-hop, and things appeared set to stretch on. Jamar was, of course, dead set on dealing with the situation. It wasn’t long before he was face to face with Vlad of Vlad TV, and he wasted no time in confronting the “elephant in the room.” Jamar claims that he never had a “war” with Eminem in the first place, claiming that it was Vlad who brought it up, not him.
“This could have been ended a long time ago,” says Jamar. “Not that it’s even anything. He even used the word beef in there. This was just me stating my f**kin’ opinion and a bunch of f**kin’ Stans having a problem with it. They were just amplifying it so much back to him that he had to respond. Really, the Stans are responsible for a lot of this back and forth shit.”
“At the end of the day, this was never no beef,” continues Jamar. “All of my points were proven. I don’t consider this a personal victory. This just speaks to the power of the soil. I represent the voice of the soil of hip-hop. You can plant many seeds in the soil but the soil decides what grows. Not the seed, the soil.” Jamar explains that “the soil” means quality, not record sales or technical skill. “The soil will decide if you are the GOAT. It was never personal to Eminem if anything it was a f**k you to white supremacy. It was the fact that [they] think they can come into all genres and dictate everything. We were saying, as the soil, no you can’t.”
