The rapper, who was born in Missouri, makes a final appearance as his historical alter ego Slim Shady on the new album before seemingly killing him off.Shady’s early 2000s persona seemed to be an attempt to enrage as many people as possible, which is why reviewers labeled several of the lines on his Shady debut album, The Slim Shady LP, as sexist.
The controversial lyrics from the five-minute song “Habits,” which discusses Eminem’s struggle with addiction, also return with Shady. The rapper criticizes the use of they/them pronouns, misgenders former Olympian and Trump supporter Caitlyn Jenner, and pokes fun at political correctness.
Eminem seems content to rekindle his capacity to annoy as many women as possible in the second verse; he even acknowledges this in a single line.
“A lyricist who came to express his genuine feelings got the ladies p*ssed.” Additionally, it appears that men are just developing enormous clitoris (p*ssies). Yes, I definitely irritated a few feminists,” he says, going straight to his earlier disputes.
