Eminem Slammed By Ariana Grande Fans After Rapping About 2017 Manchester Bombing

Eminem is in hot water with Ariana Grande fans after his surprise release of a new album, Music To Be Murdered By. On one song, "Unaccommodating," Eminem references the 2017 Manchester bombing attack that occurred at an Ariana Grande concert.

The line in question states "I'm contemplating yelling bombs away on the game like I'm outside an Ariana Grande concert."

The line is then followed the sound of an explosion.

Ariana Grande fans immediately took to Twitter to expressed their disgust with the line.

Many fans felt that it was disrespectful to the victims of the bombings.

Although in 2017 after the incident Eminem did fund-raise for the victims of the attack, people felt it was disrespectful to their memory to use this tragedy as a punchline.

Eminem fans insisted that this was the type of irreverent reference that Slim Shady is famous for.

Ariana Grande fans felt that it was not only disrespectful to the victims of the concert, but to Ariana Grande, who suffers intense Post Traumatic Stress Disorder after the attack.

Eminem has yet to respond to the backlash.

The Mayor of Manchester, Andy Burnham, has also offered criticism, saying "This is unnecessarily hurtful and deeply disrespectful to the families and all those affected."

Do you think Eminem took it too far, or is this another example of his irreverence?
