The Game took aim at Eminem on the diss track, “The Black Slim Shady,” in August, but Bizarre has suggested he may not have written it himself.
During a recent appearance on The Bootleg Kev Podcast, the D12 rapper alluded to his former Shady Records labelmate Stat Quo ghostwriting the Drillmatic: Heart Vs. Mind song.
“I just feel like I couldn’t get past the Eminem voice,” Bizarre said while sharing his thoughts on the track. “I know Game can rap better than that. I know he’s a problem as a battle rapper, a guy that’s into lyrics.
“I feel like that was a nice little cute intro. He never got out of that, though. He stayed in Marshall’s body for the whole 10 minutes. When we gonna get Game? We know he can do it, so what happened?”
He added: “[I wasn’t a fan] of that song, nah, nah. I think he could have did better — or Stat Quo could have did better.”
When Bootleg Kev questioned Bizarre about his comment, he repeated himself and said, “I ain’t say nothing, man. Shout out to Game.” He also called Stat Quo a “good friend” and agreed he’s an “amazing writer.”
However, Kev said he was in the studio with The Game for a lot of the Drillmatic sessions and didn’t see any ghostwriters.
The Game claimed the diss track wasn’t personal during his visit to The Rap Radar Podcast, before explaining his issues with Eminem started with his 50 Cent beef.
“As far as it being personal, it’s not personal,” he said. “I came up on Em, too. I remember the first time that ‘My Name Is’ came out. I was like, whoa’d by it. I felt the same feeling when I heard that, that I felt when I heard ‘Juicy’ from [The Notorious] B.I.G. the first time. So yeah, I always fucked with Em. And then the whole Aftermath and the Shady thing and he was on The Documentary.”

He continued: “I think me and 50’s fallout made him choose a side and he wasn’t doing the shit that I did. He was like, ‘I’m going with 50. Fuck you n-ggas.’ But I just felt like, Hip Hop’s gotta be interesting. These n-ggas these days are so god damn boring or every time somebody wanna beef, somebody gotta die. Sometimes, ladies and gentleman, it’s just Hip Hop and you can leave it at that.”

I KNEW HE AIN’T WRITE THAT! #EMMY #LECHEMINDUROI
you know he didnt write that hook SINCE HE STILL CAN’T WRITE HOOKS
I’m if Stat quo im suing bizarre and making him provide proof in a court of law
Noone wants to be attached to games name or that lame shit
SO…an old shady records artist writing for an old aftermath artist, the world has come full circle lol. Bizarre why throw this info out there? What does it matter? No one cares about the song, and if they did it was short lived like the rest of the Game’s album. I used to be a game fan but enough is enough already
STAT WAS ON BOTH SHADY AFTERMATH LIKE 50. YOUR POINT STANDS THO!
Yes sir you are correct, I thought he was fully shady records for some reasons. Thank you for the fix, and we can now return to our regularly scheduled program
jayceon a average battle wrapper anyways, why would he even accept this when he claims 50 didn’t write for him early on? If it’s true, bizarre bigging up these lames like this for what? Can’t a wrapper be 100 fully loyal without nut licking his man’s adversary?
Stat quo, failed rapper still trying since the early 2000’s
Naw he just pivoted into making other moves. Some of us choose to drop the mic to embrace the ancillaries. There’s way more money to be made outside of being the talent/performer.
This is VERY feasible so I’ll just leave this tidbit… If you’ve ever been in a session with Game you know he’s not the only emcee in the room, and you for sure would’ve seen Stat Quo around in addition to a slew of other really really good lyricists in these sessions. I can’t say anyone wrote for Game but he definitely gets some tips and suggestions as he puts his songs together. This is no different than what I’ve seen in most sessions with other artists as well.
Stat Quo was managing Lil Xan at one point right?
Yep. Was keepin him high and ripping him off.
Stat Quo is unloyal. D12 best hiphop group of all time, it’s not even close
Unloyal is not a word…
I can name 3 better groups.
RUN D.M.C
Beastie Boys
Wu Tang Clan
They not even best rap group out of Detroit…
#NATAS
R.i.p T-N-T
The wicked shit will never die
East Side Hoes And Money
Mastamind
Hahaha. D12 wouldn’t even consider themselves the best rap group! Better than Wu-Tang? You being serious? Better than Tribe? GTFOH.
I respect Game and like his music, but this shit is wack as fuck. Only clever line was “I came to put Shady in a a box, but he already live in one…” Otherwise, 10 minutes of trash… trying to be like his idol.
If that’s a clever line in your book, I can’t imagine the shit you listen to.
The Black Slim Shady is almost Nick Cannon level bad diss track. It’s actually worse tbh
MGK spanked him and then outdid his first week record sales with his latest album.
And MGK sucks shit, but it was the first time Eminem ever went after an actual rapper. If MGK could outdo him, I can’t imagine how much he has to pay Nas, Jay-Z, and Kanye West to keep mum about his ghetto pass. We all know he sells to hormonal teenage white boys anyway, no one who’s a serious artist would listen to the tripe he puts out. Lots of angry kids though, so he’s a great pop star.
Woah dude you wild for that comment.
MGK dissed Eminem and dropped Hotel Diablo that sold 39k it’s first week and the sales halved the next week to around 20k salesduring THE STREAMING ERA.
Massive flop. Luckily for him changing genres got him some decent sales I think those teenage girls got him a platinum album.
Lol he said MGK spanked him. That’s all I had to read before I stopped reading
first of all mgk didn’t spank him. very unpopular opinion for a reason. nobody thinks he won. ive actually never seen anybody saying mgk won lol ive seen people who dont even like eminem saying em won. eminem won on ‘not alike’ before mgk even put out a diss track. the reason why eminem has so many beefs with a bunch of losers like mgk and nick cannon is because its mostly people trying to get attention/sales and that real mcs respect eminem. game doesn’t count because it’s not even a real beef. it’s him trying to get those album sales and he said it’s not even personal. mgk had to change genres to stay relevant. he literally stopped rapping after killshot. that’s a big L. if mgk himself thought he won he wouldn’t have done that.
Is that you MGK? Lol
That maybe the silliest shit I have ever read. You must be a secret Stan.
Well no shit. They all work with the same PR firm and record executives. Apparently Eminem is having to pay enemies to be enemies these days. No one gives a shit otherwise.
Why did you put a link for the song at the bottom? Nobody in their right mind want to revisit that bullshit ass garbage track. Game is a whole ass creep.
Eminem will diss pop/r&b stars and D-List rappers aka easy targets..but Collab with pop stars (Rihanna been carrying his biggest singles) and push D-List rappers (Cashis, Creekwater)…best of both worlds album with Skylar grey coming soon
That’s because em is a FAN of hiphop first. He looks up to a lot of emcees. He wouldn’t diss someone he likes
Bizarre out here buck dancing
I like em and i like the game but this dis go hard af tho i like the beat and i like his wack ass lyrics but if em makes a diss he will destroy the game like he destroyed MGK
