Donate to support families affected by the crisis in Ukraine ➔ Eminem Rips Donald Trump in BET Hip Hop Awards Freestyle Cypher
American rapper Eminem appeared on BET Hip Hop Awards, where he criticized President Trump with five minutes of furious freestyle rap at BET Hip Hop Awards.
The video, titled “The Storm,” was filmed in Detroit as part of the BET Hip Hop Awards’ traditional cyphers.
Eminem ripped into his fans who are Trump supporters. Eminem, who has never shied away from a feud, has made Mr. Trump a target before.
Back in August, during a performance at the Reading Festival in the United Kingdom, Eminem told the crowd that he “can’t stand” the president before leading them in an obscene anti-Trump chant. He wore a shirt reading “FACK TRUMP” and made similar comments about the president before performing his song “White America.”
This is not the first time that Eminem has tackled politics in his songs. He has also taken aim at Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton and George W. Bush. Last October, he released the freestyle track “Campaign Speech,” in which he called Mr. Trump “a loose cannon who’s blunt with his hand on the button.”- The rapper concluded by raising a fist in the air — which he said was for Colin Kaepernick, who set off the NFL controversy back in 2016 — and said, ”The rest of America stand up. We love our military and we love our country, but we f—ing hate Trump.”
