Rap beef is always intriguing, but especially over this last year. Recently, an Eminem diss track aimed at Suge Knight and Ja Rule surfaced online.

Based on the content, it seems like “Smack You” was recorded during the mid-2000s, which would make sense given the fact Slim Shady’s good friend, 50 Cent, feuded with the “Always On Time” artist during that period. As for Suge, the Detroit rapper blamed him for both 2Pac and The Notorious B.I.G.’s deaths.

“I’m holding Suge responsible for the deaths of the two greatest rappers to ever grace the face of this planet,” he rapped. “If only the late, great Mr. Christopher Wallace could talk / He could tell you himself / I’m holding Suge responsible for the death of Ja Rule or anyone else down with Tha Row.”

Eminem had smoke for Ja Rule for trying to buddy up with Suge Knight, as well. “Beggin’ Suge to get him to follow you to all the clubs / But you’re too dumb to see that your publishing’s all he wants,” he rapped. “Thinkin’ you friends ’til he gets it and you’re the next rapper / Sittin’ on the passenger side of that Benz that gets hit again / And LAPD’ll be saying, ‘Who did this sh*t again?’ / Knowing who did it, but still nobody admits it / But if I get killed for this sh*t, I know who did it.”

“Smack You” was among several Em songs to leak online recently. Fans were treated to unreleased collaborations with 50 Cent, Nate Dogg, Anderson Paak., Westside Boogie, and Slaughterhouse. Fredwreck, a long-time producer for Aftermath, issued a stern warning to whoever was responsible.

“FYI to the criminal who’s leaking the Eminem music. We will find you,” he wrote. “Street law will be applied. Ask ‘Koolo’ what happened to him last time he leaked. We know where he lives and Yes this is a threat.”
