Mr. Porter Says Eminem Vs. Machine Gun Kelly Will Be Thanos Vs. Iron Man

Fans hoping for an all-out battle between Eminem and Machine Gun Kelly are in luck. According to Slim Shady’s longtime collaborator Mr. Porter, Em intends to respond to MGK’s “Rap Devil” — a diss track that returned fire at shots thrown in “Not Alike” from Shady’s recently released Kamikaze album.

Porter revealed the plans during an appearance on Culture Untold on Tuesday (September 4). The veteran producer appeared via a video chat, which often made his answers difficult to hear on the Facebook-streaming show. But, Porter was clear when asked about Em’s clash with MGK.

“We doing something else right now but trust me, we’ll get to it,” he said of a diss track rebuttal. “I’ll tell you this. I wouldn’t want to be my man [MGK].

Porter likened the battle between Shady and MGK to the Thanos vs. Iron Man fight from Marvel’s hit film Avengers: Infinity War.

“The one thing I’m worried about— did y’all see the Avengers movie?” he asked the hosts. “Remember when Thanos threw that whole planet at Iron Man? I’m worried about [Em] breaking the planet in half and throwing it at [MGK].”

The D12 member noted that Em will likely wait for more disses from other rappers and target everyone in one song.

“The real thing is like, OK, let Joe [Budden] say something,” he said. “Let somebody else saying something. Let anybody else say something and then he take everybody out at once. That’s ‘gon happen.”

Budden has responded to Marshall Mathers on his eponymous podcast, declaring he’s been better than his former boss for the last decade.

“I heard the album and because I think you don’t really know all the members in [Slaughterhouse], I don’t really think you know our history,” he said. “Let me tell you what Joe Budden has thought this entire time. I’ve been better than you this entire fucking decade!”

For fans who haven’t been able to keep up with the shots fired, listen to MGK’s “Rap Devil” diss here.

This isn’t the first time 50 Cent claimed STARZ accused the Hip Hop powerhouse of leaking an episode. Last year, 50 Cent said STARZ thought he was responsible for leaking the final three episodes of the hit show’s fourth season.

A spokesperson for STARZ issued a statement following last year’s leak.

“The final three episodes of Power’s fourth season were leaked online due to a breach of the press screening room,” it read. “This seems to be a case of password sharing that resulted in homemade videos of the episodes which were taped off a TV screen and posted online.

“STARZ has begun forensic investigations and will take legal action against the responsible parties.”

The final episode of Power‘s fifth season airs on Monday (September 10).

Man Shoots Up Racetrack Over Sold Out Ice Cube Concert Tickets

DEL MAR, CA – A performance from Ice Cube was nearly derailed due to an officer-involved shooting on Sunday (September 2).

The N.W.A legend was scheduled to perform at the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club in Del Mar, California, following the last race at the horse racing track.

According to TMZ, shortly before Cube graced the stage for a post-race concert, a 22-year-old man fired shots into the crowd when he was informed at will call that there weren’t any tickets available for the concert.

Police returned fire, striking the suspect who was later hospitalized. The man, who was identified as Daniel Elizarraras is currently in stable condition.

Audio from the incident was eerily captured on video, during a broadcast of the race.

“There is gunfire from the track,” one of the commentators can be heard saying.

Despite the bizarre incident, Ice Cube did go on to take part in his post-race concert. During the show, he performed “You Can Do It,” “We Be Clubbin’,” and a handful of his other renown classics.

Check out photos of the crime scene down below.

Eminem Faces His Demonic Alter Ego In "Fall" Video

Eminem continues rolling out the surprises with a new video for “Fall,” one of 13 new tracks from his recently released Kamikaze album.

The visual begins with Royce Da 5’9 and Em cruising around the city late at night and Em getting bombarded on his iPhone with negative reactions to his last project, Revival. As a couple sits staring at their iPad and reading yet another negative Revival review, they suddenly drop it and a creepy black hand emerges from the screen.

The black figure starts following Slim Shady and before too long, Em breaks into a sprint as the figure continues chasing him.

“Fall” has received both positive and negative feedback. Em calls out a slew of rappers, including Joe Budden, Earl Sweatshirt and Brand Nubian’s Lord Jamar.

But it’s his use of a homophobic slur aimed at Tyler The Creator that had the song’s collaborator, Bon Iver’s Justin Vernon, regretting his decision to be a part of the album.

Watch the “Fall” video above.

Young Buck On Transgender Viral Video Rumors: "Ain’t Shit Gay About Me"

Following the rumors that arose from a viral video posted by a hacked account over the weekend, claiming to show G-Unit member Young Buck involved in a sexual act with a transgender woman, the Nashville MC took to Instagram to clear the air. “Let me address this real fast real quick … ain’t shit gay about me,” he said.

A post shared by Baller Alert (@balleralert) on Sep 3, 2018 at 9:08pm PDT

“I ain’t got a problem with no gay people,” he continued, “[but] there ain’t no motherfuckin’ tape of no motherfuckin’ punk sucking my dick.”

The clip in question, originally posted by a transgender woman who goes by the name GlamourPurfek, didn’t show Buck’s face — and failed to conclusively prove much beyond some alleged back-and-forth social communication and that he also owned the same jacket seen in the short clip.

GlamourPurfek posted a video on Sunday (September 3) apologizing to Buck — who she referred to by first name — and his family, and goes on to explain that the account was hacked after she provided her login details to an acquaintance to help get her verified. She also added that legal charges are being brought against the unnamed individual.

In his response, Buck seemed to be the most irritated by the series of videos posted by past collaborator and fellow Nashvillian Cub da CookUpBoss, the most vocal to run with the “Young Buck gay” narrative.

“Since you want to jump on the Instagram and play all these old gangsta ass roles like you that, why don’t you pull up and keep that same energy nigga,” Buck said, addressing Cub da CookUpBoss. “You give me the location, and I’ll give you the location.”

Cub quickly responded via Instagram Live, noting “your goons ain’t like my goons … they don’t play that shit,” while doubling down on his earlier comments.

The clip that started this war of IG words can be seen down below.
