Eminem’s ‘Most Brutal Diss of All Time’ Was in Response to a Lyric About His Daughter Hailie

The star’s daughter got married over the weekend and it’s safe to say he’s always been protective of her

It’s no secret Eminem has a history of dropping fire diss tracks – Drake and Kendrick would both be put to shame if he’d got involved.

The legend made his name competing in rap battles back in the day and long before his infamous clash with Machine Gun Kelly in 2018, ‘Slim Shady’ locked horns with Ja Rule.

This beef with the ‘Always on Time’ rapper seemed to come following Eminem and Dr Dre signing 50 Cent to their label. And with Ja Rule having a history with him, he went after the ‘Lose Yourself’ rapper in a musical response.

As any fan will know, one of the most important people in Eminem’s life is, of course, his daughter, Hailie Jade.

50 Cent and Dr Dre were actually with the rapper over the weekend as they attended Hailie’s wedding.

Eminem shared a dance with the influencer as fans felt old after seeing his daughter grow up over the years.

And with this close relationship, his ‘most brutal diss of all time’ came about as a response to one of Ja’s lyrics about her.

“Em, you claim your mother’s a crackhead and Kim is a known s*** / So what’s Hailie gonna be when she grows up?” he wrote in one of his songs.

With it getting right under his skin, a furious Shady geared up his crew and fired back with the brutal track ‘Hailie’s Revenge’.

Released in April 2003, it was revenge in every sense of the word, with Em gunning for his rap rival from the very outset.

“Hailie, what do you want to be when you grow up, baby?” the song opens with.

“I don’t know, but I don’t want to grow up to be like Ja Rule’s little dirty-a** kids…bring daddy’s Oscar, we’re gonna shove it up Ja Rule’s a**”.

Throughout his early career, Ja was repeatedly accused of copying legendary Tupac’s signature sound by fans and media alike. And Eminem didn’t miss his opportunity to remind people in Hailie’s Revenge.

“You on Pac’s d***, you a replica guy. If he was still alive, you would never get by. All you do is cry, b****, keep it real. Life is more than imitating and eating pills,” he wrote.

Ranker.com places Eminem’s diss at Ja Rule as his most savage, with his ‘Killshot’ retort to MGK a close second.

“Insult me in a line, compliment me on the next, damn, I’m really sorry you want me to have a heart attack, Was watchin’ 8 Mile on my NodricTrack, Realised I forgot to call you back,” Eminem raps in ‘Killshot’, referencing how MGK was once a fan of his.

“Here’s that autograph for your daughter, I wrote it on a Starter cap, Stan, Stan, son, listen, man, dad isn’t mad, But how you gonna name yourself after a damn gun and have a man bun?”

LADbible contacted Eminem’s reps for comment.
