Eminem responded to Machine Gun Kelly today with the “Killshot” diss track. MGK wasn’t the only one that took some shots, Iggy Azalea also took some heat being name dropped on the song. Em raps “You ain’t never made a list next to no Biggie, no Jay/Next to Taylor Swift, and that Iggy hoe, you about to really blow.”
Iggy decided to respond to the lyrics over Twitter saying Eminem is one of the greatest to ever do it but name dropping is a lazy tactic. Check out Iggy’s tweets below.
Diss songs shouldn’t be filled with celebrity name drops to pad out lazy bars.

And that’s my unbiased opinion from a girl that watched this guys set and sung the words in the crowd. I’d think it regardless.
One of the greatest to do it, I’m NOT in dispute about that. But I do think the name dropping thing has become a crotch.— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) September 14, 2018
Also let’s talk about why it’s lazy now; but wasn’t in the earlier work.
The earlier stuff was crazy, twisted and creative.
This stuff feels more like picking names that fit easily into a rhyme scheme. 🤷♀️— IGGY AZALEA (@IGGYAZALEA) September 14, 2018
Jay Electronica also came for Eminem on Twitter for his line about Diddy in the diss track. Eminem raps, “But, Kells, the day you put out a hit’s the day Diddy admits that he put the hit out that got Pac killed, ah!” Jay Electronica warns Em to tread carefully:
“@eminem, how dare you accuse diddy of killing tupac while you completely look pass jimmy iovine and those who profited from his death the MOST. You best tread carefully Son, before i come tear your ivory tower down like Sulaiman done the Templar Knights. #ripProof ”
