Battle rapper Pat Stay has called out The Game for his attempt to bait Eminem with “The Black Slim Shady” diss track, which arrived on Friday (August 12) as part of Drillmatic: Heart Vs. Mind.
On Tuesday (August 16), the 36-year-old artist posted of photo of Game, shirtless and in his bed, scrolling on his phone. The text at the top read: “Dear Slim I Wrote You But You Still Ain’t Callin,” a nod to Em’s 2000 song “Stan” about an obsessed fan. In the caption, Stay condemned “The Black Slim Shady” and suggested he was disappointed in his actions.
“I gotta say, as a fan losangelesconfidential its been hard to watch you desperately begging for @eminem attention trying to battle him,” he wrote. “Trust me, I respect the hunger, but once you start that whole ‘he only blew up because he’s white’ type sh*t it comes off more hater-ish than competitive.”
Pat Stay also offered to step in the battle arena with Game since he apparently wants to battle a “white boy” so badly, while revealing Game blocked him on social media.
“But Game, you seem very eager to battle,” he continued. “Specifically a ‘white boy.’ Well why don’t you do a real battle and come see me. We can do it in LA. Yeah, you’re way bigger than me in the music world, of course. But in the battle world you’re the underdog, by a long shot. We can put whatever up too.
“Lots of famous rappers have jumped in the ring to solidify their positions as lyricists and real MC’s. And that seems to be what you’ve been trying to prove. So bring it. I’m that white boy you need to see first. (He blocked me and ppl msging him about it so clearly he’s not interested so stop tagging and msging him….I ain’t tryna harass the man hah…leave him be).”
The Game Comes For Eminem's Jugular On ‘The Black Slim Shady' Diss Track
“The Black Slim Shady” found Game taking jabs at nearly everything in Eminem’s life — from his ex-wife Kim Mathers and daughter Hailie to his white skin and addiction struggles.
“Ask Dre, all I got is my word, my dick and my MAC-10,” he rapped. “One thing you can never have is my muthafuckin’ Black, skin/This ain’t no suit that I wore, this ain’t a mansion to hang a plaque, this ain’t no stupid award.”
From there, Game went into the same cadence as Eminem’s Oscar-winning hit “Lose Yourself” with: “So oh, he goes platinum and oh, I’m on the ‘Math with him/He got all the Blackest friends, he wants to be African, me/Left for dead on the Doctor’s Advocate/Dre never executive produced it, I just imagined it.”
It only got more disrespectful from there. The over 10-minute track arrived hours ahead of the Drillmatic album and sparked a Twitter debate almost immediately. Check it out below.
Nah dawg Eminem aint replying nah
Boogie or K-Dot might tho.
Kendrick won’t get involved,he got a verse on black boy fly dedicated to him,that’s his big homie
That trash isn’t worth replying too.
This would actually be a dope ass battle
?game used everything there’s no fight left in him
How does he expect to diss him with these kindergarten bars
He’d be better off battling Logic , G-Eazy, or Jack Harlow lol.
Logic isn’t white if that’s what your trying insinuate
Is Logic a small hat tribe member then?
Game is retarded
Game still upset he wasn’t included in the Super Bowl halftime show..
It’s worth mentioning that said battle rap vet also received a tidy bag from Eminem because of that battle rap movie he Executive Produced. So it’s not exactly shocking he decided with the man
Ok, but does that make what he said wrong?
I guess the rumours are true, if you read into beefs, the Game has always been blocking people on IG fucking fans too. Also, I hear a sure fire way to get blocked by the game is to pay him for a feature. Apparently, the quickest way to get him to go ghost is too give him his $1500 bag and he gets the fuck out of dodge. Maybe Em should give the game some lunch money and he’ll fuck off.
MEANWHILE: Eminem is in the Studio w/Dr. Dre & Snoop. Nothing needs 2 be said.
Ok, i got but two questions.. 1st question: Who the fuck is Pat Stay? and the 2nd question: Why are we supposed to give a fuck about his opinion?
1. One of the few top tier battle rappers, of you need context look on YouTube for Pat Stay vs Arsonal.
2. You shouldn’t but I’m sure Em said the same thing about Game.
Pat Stay is to Game…….what Game is to Eminem……
It’s been six months and still no word, I don’t deserve it?
I don’t think game would fare very well in that arena. He ain’t used to battle rapping. Its a different environment altogether.
Why did he think he deserved to perform at the Super Bowl with the big dawgs (icons)?
Because it was Dre celebrating his career and artists he has worked with. Considering he produced an album for Game and he was signed to the label I can see why he could’ve been there, I mean, Mary J Blige was there and she’s never been signed to Aftermath. I must admit it would’ve been a dope moment if Game came out and performed Hate it or Love it with 50 and left after that.
For starters Games from LA. Dre easily coulda included Game and had him and 50 perform this is how we do, thats all that was needed. Maybe another cut off one of his first 2 albums.
I get why Game feels the way he do.
Dre and Em are loyal to 50, who will have problems with Game forever. Game never had a chance to be included, and he should’ve known better instead of getting his feelings hurt. Just another bs reason to run his mouth
So it’s cool to crap on people for getting ahead because they’re white until someone says it about Eminem? Shows how ridiculous this culture is
Actually it’s not cool.
The point is he’s dope regardless. He might be more mainstream popular because of it but hes still one of the dopest to Hip Hop heads. The ones who arent salty anyway. But tbf even that thinking seems off. You get like 3 big white rappers and the rest are black but everyone says the white rappers are popular cos theyre white. So by that thinking shouldnt there be more? I think fans are a bit more savvy these days
Most white rappers are popular cuz they’re white and it’s a novelty in the industry. The ones who have talent stay (eminem) the ones who don’t or are mediocre fade (Macklemore, post Malone, mgk, Jack harlow soon). Trust and believe the music execs and the white suburban kids want someone to bump too hellaaa hard, so they will get an initial career boost that a comparable or better black rapper wouldn’t (Jack and posty), or have diehard fanbases that’ll never let them go (eminem). There’s just not more of them, because white peoples haven’t really figured out how to rap or crack the industry like that. With the rise of SoundCloud and emo rap they’ve found their in now tho
I don’t think Game was actually hating on Eminem. For the industry,he was just trying to bait him without be fully disrespectful for the competition. BUT if he wants Eminem to respond, it should happen. Eminem the king, I don’t mind watching him behead rappers.
Fully disrespectful? He told him he only made it because he’s white, insulted his daughter AND his whole family, and said some super backwards racist shit. Fuck the game.
Im a recovering meth head that goes through withdrawals still and I suck my teeth and gums like they were a pacifier.
Hi Pat, my name is Jayceon Taylor and I shove pickles up my fart hole.
Tbf hes been called out by pretty much everyone except the most ardent anti stans who just hate anything to do with Eminem.
Eminem defense force adds another member to the roster
you say it like Em needs it lol thats the comical part, the fact is people speak up because of the things said about him are just ridiculous and Royce the only guy who defends em, aside from d12 members and thats because how close they are, bet you probably talk ish about your friends behind there back, clowning Em because he got solid friends lol, cornball , the whole race card ish is played out, the white royce da 5’9 line probably had you jumping up and down but the fact it was said in a song called BLACK SLIM shady and a rapper imitating Eminem…you probably too dumb to see the irony in that.
Haha! Calls Game desperate and then goes, “Hey, why don’t you battle me!?!”
Pat stay a stan… say it aint so smh
Wait…if you’re a Stan for not taking Game’s side in this, what are you if you DO take Game’s side? Pat Stay would thirty Game in a battle. Game took up for the rat, Tekashi. That’s an L all day long. Period. Imagine going from fanboy to hater over Eminem’s success to sell…wait a minute…..since Game wants to use the standard race card…is Game the black MGK?
Just listened to it.. pathetic. and ofc he has to make it about race, big surprise. black white blah blah. just sad.
All these rappers, vloggers and dudes in various comment sections are Eminem stans. How many worthy opponents have Eminem dissed? I’ll wait…He’s dissed clowns like nick cannon, benzino, lil yachty and even Mariah carrey etc. MGK held his own but dudes are mad at Game for dissing Em. Game is a worthy opportunity. Did y’all forget Game dismantled G-Unit with 300 bars n running? Rap is a sport and I GUARANTEE Eminem won’t respond. Game can go toe to toe with Eminem. C*ck riding is not a form of transportation.
I think he’ll respond, just not right now. He doesn’t want to help him with his album sales, which is the whole reason Game dissed him to begin with. I think Em will respond with a few lines in some random song, and if Game responds with a diss song then Em will too. Black Slim Shady was more Game trying to prove he’s as lyrical as Em than it was an actual diss song imo
Game been proved he’s lyrical. Album sales is nothing now. Game solidified with sales. He has multiple fire albums under his belt Documentary, Jesus Piece, Lax to name a few. He independent (I think) so he gon eat regardless. Game has always dissed with every album, so this is nothing.
Tell Game he’s been lyrical. Through the interviews it seems like he’s really trying to convince people he’s as good or better than Em. And yeah I agree, he does have alot of good albums. I just don’t remember him going this hard at someone in interviews and then releasing a 10 minute song at someone who did absolutely nothing to him lol.
He hasn’t sold more than 2 buys in a decade.
Game album went triple wet banana
He hasn’t had many worthy opponents because only trash rappers and/or rappers who are trying to gain hype for sales go at him. Most of the legends/actually good rappers respect him as an artist.
I think eminem has sucked for the past 17 years, but he still has much more raw talent than Game does. That’s just an objective fact I’d say. Not saying game is bad, but he’s never been the best to do anything in his own field. Eminem in his prime was one of the best, who could just spit such wild flows. Game isn’t the best gangster rapper ever, not the best with rhyme schemes, flow, sound. Etc. He’s never been considered the best of anything in hiphop.
I have no problem with Game challenging Em. That’s hiphop. I’m tripping off the fact that Game is tripping about being excluded from the Super Bowl. By the rationale of some, if Game is angry- perhaps NWA (Ice Cube, Ren, and Yella….especially Cube) and the Dogg Pound (Daz and Kurupt) should also be angry. After all, they all sold millions under his watch. And in the case of NWA, they made a cultural impact that still resonates.
The Super Bowl was Dre’s Day. If the beef is Dre choosing 50 over him from a career standpoint, I get why Game is upset. However, if we’re simply going by hits, the Game can spit, but he doesn’t have an “In the Club” under his belt. Dre simply showcased some of his most commercially successful acts and hits.
Game is being coerced by industry execs to cancel himself.. so sad
Cancelled by whom? Or like whom? Cancel culture is a bunch of internet trolls that might hit the nail on the head sometimes, but consist of people that feel cancelled from society. So spending time online to make somebody’s life miserable makes them feel good about themselves. Go figure. Like the hood won’t stand behind The Game. A BUNCH OF BURBIANS now feel like they control the Real voice if struggle, that made hip hop what it is today. Not stupid songs dissing your moms or ex wife.
The comments for the YouTube video have been disabled. Wow The Game is a massive wet bitch. I have always stood by the dude since day one as I cudnt stand 50 Cent . Since he began including Little boy Wayne then Drake and Kanye … His albums standards got lower and lower. I’ve been a fan for years and was looking forward to this but , after one listen I was glad I didn’t purchase this shit.
I’m done with Game but I’m cool with it. Honestly doesn’t bother me as I now see what a prick he is.
Um. A lot of artists on their personal channels do disable the comments. To prevent idiotic trolls like you feeling empowered behind a keyboard sand trying to talk reckless and tough. Go back to your slim shady pages and do your stupid nonsense trash talking there..
Its wack lol.
They didn’t even put dude’s name in the title yet an article was necessary. Can we just get the government to get everyone’s opinion during the next census. That way we can just cancel everyone who doesn’t like Em’s music.
All your posts spew immature, horny teen girl like tendencies. Please stop posting.
The Black Slim Shady sounds more like a love a letter to Eminem than a diss.
It’s 10 minutes long as well. It is so so so cringe.
So much misinformation going on.
Just because YOU might not know Pat Stay, doesn’t mean he isn’t known. EMINEM himself, has said Pat Stay is one of the best in the world – DRAKE has said he’s his favourite! Look at his latest post with Royce Da 59, Method Man, Joe Budden and Shaq!
Pat Stay isn’t doing to Game what Game is doing to Eminem. Game went on a press run and recorded a 10 minute diss track. Pat Stay has simply said if you’re looking for a battle I’ll give you one.
Some will feel Pat Stay doesn’t deserve the attention because Game is a bigger name. That is true in MUSIC. But not in BATTLE RAP. Pat Stay is the big dog in that arena as you can see by the endless amount of comments on the post that Game would lose.
If you’ve never watched a soccer match you probably aren’t qualified to speak on soccer. So, if you’ve never watched battle rap you probably aren’t…you get the picture.
If you don’t know who pat stay is… You don’t know battle rap…at all. Your favorite rapper does though
Pretty funny how so many people say shit like “Em wants to be black” because he raps and yet the entire genre of rap was created using the English language which was created by European English White people and is from their culture. If you don’t want people who are not black rapping then do it in a language that is your own, not theirs. The hypocrisy is always next level with y’all. No one stopped you from re learning your own languages over the last 150 yrs. Smh
You sound stupid. Blacks were made to learn English or did you miss the whole slavery thing.
Heard it.
Want refund of 10 minutes.
My earholes might have picked up a welding torch and tried to seal themselves off in protest while listening to that 10 minute snoozefest.
It was strange, but my brain agreed…because that diss was straight up boo boo butter.
Youre tryin too hard bruh, take a break
………On drillmatic. Music to be murdered by had 17 tracks and there was 13 features. And thats counting Royce once bc he was on 3 tracks.
pat stay will murder this man FACTS!!!! Only pussy bois block shit FACTS!!!! STEP IN THE RING COWARD!!!!
why nobody mentions how Em stole his style from Chino XL
