Give Nick Cannon this much credit: it takes a lot to be beaten in a battle that the other person doesn’t even bother to show up for. True, Eminem did reignite the long-dormant feud between himself and the rapper/actor/comedian/TV and radio host with his verse on Fat Joe’s “Lord Above,” but other that a cheeky Twitter response to Cannon’s claim of a tryst between him and a chauffeur, Em has stayed silent, letting the former Mr. Mariah Carey clown himself by releasing abysmal diss tracks with the most pathetic attempts at ammunition, such as claiming Eminem voted for Trump (Yeah, we doubt that) and mocking him for raising a child that’s not biologically his (How dare he?)
Instead of conceding defeat in this non-starter of a feud (the least-desired sequel to something from 2009 since Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2) and focusing on hosting The Masked Singer and Wild ‘N Out, Cannon is starting out the decade by letting you know he’s serious: serious about making his voice heard, serious about being respected as an artist, and serious about milking this attention for all its worth.The Miseducation of the Negro You Love to Hate is the ghastly result, 26 minutes of delusion and confusion that can’t end soon enough.
Only one of the seven tracks is explicitly about Marshall Mathers, “Used to Look Up to You,” which is “You changed, man” in song rather than a diss track. But Eminem comes up on other tracks, like “Cut Em Off,” where Cannon tries to refer to Em’s mockery as “beefin’.” Should Eminem choose to respond, he might take a cue from Carey and release his own version of “Obsessed.”
The Eminem references are the only thing that gives this any kind of identity. Otherwise, it’s just Nick Cannon trying to prove he can hang with the Futures and the Migoses of the world by slathering his voice in Auto-Tune and talking about his Patek. But his sense of humor is still intact, with uproarious lines like “This shit was meant for me, boy, I was chosen/N—– the wave and I am the ocean.”

Another accomplishment: being so vapid while also being so self-important. Cannon tries to imbue this mixtape with gravitas, with spoken word samples all over the place, including many that sound like they’re coming straight from the pulpit and one from Birdman. He can’t even be somber without sounding like he’s trying to aggrandize himself. Closer “Instead of Nipsey” isn’t a tribute to Nipsey Hussle; it’s Nick Cannon finding a way to make a tragedy about himself.
If you haven’t listened to The Miseducation of the Negro You Love to Hate, you’re not alone. As of writing this review, the last three songs have fewer than 1,000 plays on Spotify, and that’s after being out for a couple days. Plays on YouTube and DatPiff are also paltry, meaning Cannon is someone people don’t love to hate but rather who they can’t even be bothered to think about.
Here’s one more feat of his: decreased relevance with increased exposure.

I’d give him zero if I could. Dude acts like people hearing but he really can’t rap.
But what does Will Smith think though?
Hey guys every one is in Eminem Comments. No one cares.
Eminem didn’t reignite this shit. Nick cannon goes on that T.I podcast basically talking shit about Eminem once again.
Why we don’t even have 0 points! This guy is garbage
In the words of dave chappelle. “Fuck Nick cannon son”
smh. just smh. 1/5.
1/5
Yuck
I think the nick cannon album is straight fire
Thanks man!
Dumpster fire?
it’s cool
the reason why I said it’s cool cuz I give him props for going against Eminem but he’s not going to be able to handle Eminem cuz nick is not a rapper he’s just got money and he’s trying to prove a point to Mariah.
I appreciate the co-sign. I think it’s pretty cool myself. I had another track with R Kelly that was COLD, but, hey, I got a daughter
0/0
Clearly, you don’t have an opinion. Hopping on the bandwagon. Nick did his thing!
I feel like everyone just hopping on the bandwagon it isn’t as bad as they making out to be; Also in a day and age were people called BasedGod the greatest rapper of all time these folks should stop clout chasing
Worst review ever. Period. This blog is not relevant haha you ?
Untalented emcee, don’t know about the rest
Yall seem to forget em didnt start nick started by say he would whoop em ass
I would whoop his ass
No, you would suck him off if you could! Facts!!!
Rellick that wasn’t to you Bro I don’t know why it tagged you
Nick Cannon I will Whoop your Ass for Stiring up that Bitch Ass Racist shit.. Fly Your Rich Ass to Bama and Find out How these Krackers do it here.. That Goes beyond Em with your remarks Sissy I feel you talking about all white Folks
Calm down, bro! You’re making me nervous with all those capitals. Most white folks are cool
Sigh, why in* tf
Just as we all thought, he had an album coming and it was shit.
Best album of 2020 thus far
Another lame from nicks show. Smh
No this ain’t it nick!!!!!!
This piece of garbage is hands down The softest album ever. Only gay dudes would buy this. Without listening to it, I’ll rate it 0/5.
Ummm Em didn’t start this, nick did on the Ti podcast. Do your research before you write about stuff man….you looking dum.
Actually the guy with the more extensive Nick Cannon knowledge is the one that looks dumb here.
This site loves to remove comments that call things into question. I simply stated I found it strange that a white person is reviewing an album titled, “the miseducation of the negro” which is based on a book of the same
I just want to thank Nick for not being scared to expose and stand up to one of the gate keepers. #teamNick
Stop it nick, quit hiding your identity. Lame!
They called this dude corny many times he most def stepped his game up and people are riding em instead of giving this dude props if you ask me he beat em in this beef the first 2 diss tracks were wack but when he did that video showing where em talked about black woman straight fire any black man dis agreeing is a House NIGGA
Nick, get off this website.
Funny how you bring up the fact nick’s “best shot” at em uses em’s voice as a hook for his shit…. hah, diss him or kiss him? Take your pick, nick….
Nick is a clown
Catlin Jenner bumps this album while crashing into old ladies.
Hot ass
Trash. Hip hop for sissies.
This guy is not a rapper. He basically doesn’t like Em. Lol.
It’s not even worth calling a album.
Full of shit. ??
It’s a good thing nobody is asking you. You must either be nick himself, or one of the lames from the show. Just saying.
Won’t even listen to the shit! Straight trash! 0/5! Why everyone think they gangbang now? Nick thinks he a blood!?! Straight poser. F#ck nicks g@y ass!
That’s not fair. Give it a listen, Blood! I got something on here for everybody. Bloods. Crips. Even Decepticons! Fuck with your boy!
What about the Autbots? Is there anything for He-Man or TMNT?
Some people feel that they can buy their way in
Stick to TV!
I believe I can fly, I believe I can touch the sky. I think about ir every night and day, spread my wings and fly to space.
Gay w/ a side of AIDS 0/5
Worst thing ive ever listened too but what would you expect from a washed up actor turned tv host wannabe rapper
Garbage.
Keep up the good work Nick Canon
Thanks! I will
The name alone is terrible come on nick you can step in §μ!T or step over it.
I love Nick but dude you are not a rapper! Leave Em and your ex where they belong in your past and head toward your bright future! Because let’s be honest if Em ever battled you, you should be slain.
That shit go hard fuck y’all who hatting on my nigga real shit give credit where bit do Nick did that he can rap not a hatter but stop y’all shit bitchese
I agree!!! People hitting just because it’s Nick!
It makes no difference to me that it’s Nick Cannon. I hate the album strictly because the bars are awful, the production is poor, the autotune is brutal…..because it really has nothing to offer. That’s why I hate it. It’s a bad album. Period.
Slim shady is a bad human being, what make this fool thinks he can just attack a family and no one should do anything about it. Mariah is a Mother, why should her life be dragged out in public and displayed like this to suit this kkk wanna be son of a bitch snith eminem.
Nick as Leader of family must stand up for his own, what u expect a real man to do.
To me this rap shit is meaning less, its about standing up for yourself and your family.
This world would be a better place without people like eminem teaching or younger generation how to be totally disrespestful, the fact that he choose a art developed by Nubian or African American people is totally be disrespectfull. All people of color should stand up and force this bastard out.
Eminem is a fake and a imposter and he give rap a even worse name than it already earns promoting violence against blacks or Nubians as the were calles before slavery.
Anyone who potrays themself as niggas or negros should be elimminated, have some dam pride for those who suffered so you can kill each other on the street for peannut trash.
You misinformed as shit.
Illiterate and clueless, solid combination.
Anyone who ignores the squiggly red line when they type should be eliminated, have some damn pride for those who created spell check so you can look like a fucking moron for Nick Cannon trash.
Just trash man!
Cant front. This shit is good to wack off too.
Shit is nice! Nick Cannon album is ?????
His greatest achievement.was his wife.and kids.now it’s Nick who?????
Why do so many news sites run with the narrative that eM reignited this beef. Watch expediTIously w Canon. eM even mocks the notion, get my caboose kicked? c’mon son.
GARBAGE.
This album was great. Sales don’t equate to quality. Reasonable Doubt, illmatic, Paid in Full did not sale that much, yet you can’t deny their greatness. This album is a masterpiece. AOTY
Classic
Just stop Nick Cannon.
Hot GARBAGE!!!!!!!!
Nah fam
Nick Cannon should change his name like Prince. Prince became only known as “symbol” and Nick should only be known as “L”.
Just got his new album I’m mad I gotta wait 4 more days before the garbage man picks this up
LOL…. this is the funniest thing I’ve read all day… thank you Fatalkeez!
