Rapper Eminem has been lot of criticism over a lyric on his new album, in which he equates dropping music to the 2017 terrorist attack at Ariana Grande?s concert in Manchester which killed 22 people.
In his new song 'Unaccommodating' which released on Friday, Eminem sings "But I?m contemplating yelling ?bombs away? on the game / Like I?m outside of an Ariana Grande concert waiting", followed by a bomb sound effect which many are calling disrespectful.
