Eminem pays respect to the late King Von on the “MTBMB” Album Deluxe.
Eminem surprised the fans with a full-length deluxe version of his album “Music To Be Murdered By” which is expected to debut at number 3 on the Billboard 200. In the new Side-B project, Eminem named drops the likes of Snoop Dogg, J. Cole, Lil Wayne, Billie Eilish, Mariah Carey, Machine Gun Kelly, Rihanna, and more. In the new project, Eminem also pays homage to the deceased Chicago rapper King Von, who was shot dead after an altercation outside an Atlanta nightclub last month.
On the song called “Tone Deaf“, Eminem raps:
“My enemies, I’m a chimney, give me the smoke, opps
And R.I.P. to King Von, and it don’t stop, and I know not“.
Not only has Eminem chosen his 2020 deluxe edition to pay tribute to King Von, but so has Lil Durk. Lil Durk released his new album The Voice, which included King Von and others. Lil Durk released 16 songs off his album The Voice. When you listen to track 6, you will hear all of his comments on King Von.
Em begins the song by pretending not to hear the person on the other end of the phone, a dig at those who have referred to him as washed. The song is about five minutes long, and Eminem could fill it with three long verses and a hook. He discusses anything from dissing the rap game to boasting about his rhyming abilities. Eminem responded to Gen Z’s attempt to cancel him with an animated lyric video on March 5, 2021.
