Hours after the released of his surprise new album, Eminem faced backlash online caused by controversial lyric which appeared to be recalling the Manchester Arena bombing.
Eminem just dropped his 11th LP, Music to be Murdered BY. One of the track 'Unaccommodating', Eminem raps: "But I'm contemplating yelling 'Bombs away' on the game/Like I'm outside of an Ariana Grande concert waiting."
Twenty-two people were killed in the terror attack at the Ariana Grande concert in May 2017.

Eminem literally just used a horrific terrorist attack that killed 22 innocent adults/children for a punchline in a song.

One person tweeted: Yes disrespecting all those that died/lost people at MEN bombings.
Others has come to his defense: OMG sensative Sally. Listen to the record before you pass judgment. This generation is so soft.. OMG Becky he's so disgusting. Here's a tissue, pass it around to the other snow flakes.
ik some people can be rude ngl...... but i just wanna day love, i truly know em was not mocking manchester, he was using it as a way to get another point across. he really is a man who cares about people and wants to help others.. listen to darkness
Dear sensitive honeys: Eminem has been a fearless lyricist since you were babies. Trying to cancel him now because you are overly sensitive is NOT going to work. If he offended you, he WON. #MusicToBeMurderedBy pic.twitter.com/VcQf7tSSiz— Yanet (*Moon (@kornymoon) January 17, 2020
