Eminem And Mariah Carey Again

Eminem and Mariah Careys History Explained

It’s hard not to be “Obsessed” with Eminem and Mariah Carey’s long-standing feud.

Although the two artists have each found huge success in the music industry, the rapper and the “Fantasy” singer struggled to put their emotions aside and make peace after Eminem claimed that they dated.

“I don’t want to say anything disrespectful because I respect her as a singer, but on the whole personal level, I’m not really feeling it. I just don’t like her as a person,” Eminem told Rolling Stone in 2002. “I gotta be honest; I learned a lesson from it: Don’t believe the hype. I have respect for her, but she doesn’t really have it all together. I’ll just say that and that she’s a beautiful woman.”

From Carey’s perspective, she never had a romantic relationship with Eminem. Instead, the singer only viewed their short bond as professional.

Over the years, this feud has encompassed everything from diss tracks to shady interviews. Things didn’t get any better when Carey debuted “Obsessed” from Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel — and then dressed up as a man resembling Eminem in the song’s official music video

Fifteen years after the release of MemoirsUs Weekly is taking a trip down memory lane and looking back on this unpredictable feud:

“What you trying be? My new wife?” he rapped on the track. “What, you Mariah? Fly through twice.” In a separate song titled “When the Music Stops,” Eminem said, “What the f— you take me for, a joke? You smoking crack? ‘Fore I do that, I’d beg Mariah to take me back.”

December 2002

On her album Charmbracelet, Carey seemingly addressed her relationship with Eminem in the song titled “Clown.”

“You should’ve never intimated we were lovers,” she sang, “when you know very well we never even touched each other.”

In a separate interview with Larry King, Carey clarified how close she got to the rapper. “I hung out with him, I spoke to him on the phone. I think I was probably with him a total of four times,” she said. “And I don’t consider that dating somebody.”

The New York Post reported that Eminem saved several “long, gushy” voicemails from Carey that he could use in a song. In response to the rumors, Carey told the publication, “I don’t know what the hell he’s doing. It’s a little excessive. Doesn’t it seem a little bit girly? Like we’re in a catfight.”

2006

In his song “Jimmy Crack Corn,” Eminem reigned his feud with Carey. “Your mind’s on us like mine’s on Mariah,” he rapped. “And y’all are just like her, you’re all f—ing liars.” Later that year, he reportedly went on Shade 45 radio and said he was in a relationship with the singer for about seven months.

“I wasn’t really into what she was into; our personalities collided,” he said. “She’s a diva, and I’m a little more regular, I guess.”

Nick Cannon has entered the chat! In his song “Bagpipes From Baghdad,” Eminem chose to spotlight both Carey and her then-partner. “Mariah, whatever happened to us? / Why did we have to break up?” he rapped. “Nick Cannon, you prick, I wish you luck with the f—in’ whore.”

Cannon was not impressed with Eminem’s song and chose to sound off in a blog post. “I thought we got past the days where white men could spew vulgar obscenities at our beautiful queens and get away with it,” he wrote in a since-deleted letter. “So, Miss Marshall, I’m going to make you wish you never spoke my name and regret the ungodly things you said about my wife.”

Several diss tracks followed, with Carey dropping “Obsessed” and Eminem releasing “The Warning.” (For the “Obsessed” video, Carey famously dressed in drag as a man who looked a lot like Eminem.)

In an interview with Vibe magazine, Eminem showed signs of wanting to move on from the feud. “I really don’t want to talk about her anymore,” he told the publication. “I don’t want to keep beating a dead horse. I’m not even going to comment about it. I’m done with that whole situation. I said what I had to say. I’m done.”

After Cannon finalized his divorce from Carey after six years of marriage, the former America’s Got Talent host decided to reflect on why he got involved in the Eminem saga. “The way the Eminem thing started was that I never had an issue with him,” he said on DX News. “If anything, I’ve been one of his biggest fans, but when another man crosses a line of disrespect, then you got to deal with it.”

2019

While appearing on T.I.’s “ExpediTlously” podcast, Cannon revealed that Eminem had apologized. Things took a turn, however, when Eminem appeared on Fat Joe’s single “Lord Above.” During his portion of the song, the star called Carey a “nut job.”

After Carey released her memoir, The Meaning of Mariah Carey, readers discovered Eminem was not mentioned. When asked why he didn’t make the final pages, she explained to Variety: “There [are] some songs that I can sing in response to that, but I will not do it. … If somebody or something didn’t pertain to the actual meaning of Mariah Carey, as is the title, then they aren’t in the book.”
