In the mid-1990's Detroit's underground music scene was going incredibly well. Their were the major acts really making some noise such as ICP, Kid Rock, Esham the UNHOLY, NATAS, and House Of Krazees. And their were countless scores of other acts trying to make it big. One of those acts was the rap superstar of today, Eminem. At a local release party Eminem printed flyers saying listing all of these major Detroit acts and more may appear at his party. After seeing these flyers ICP were angered by the rapper using their name to draw their fanbase, but thought little more of it until after the local rapper had gained national fame.

In 1998 Eminem was a hot topic throughout the country. He was just beginning to get national attention and was making an appearance on Howard Stern's radio show. Howard, a longtime friend of ICP, asked Eminem what he thought of other Detroit artists. He listed Kiss, Kid Rock, and eventually ICP. Eminem acted like he didn't know ICP at first, then he said that they used to kick their asses before. The next day Stern brought ICP on the show to ask about this, and Violent J said they didn't even know him. Shortly afterwards ICP hit the studio with Twiztid to record "Slim Anus." The war had begun!

"Slim Anus" was a remix of Eminem's hit song "My Name Is" with altered lyrics dissing Eminem calling him a homosexual in every way possible. The song was played on The Juggalo Show, Mancow's Radio Show, Howard Stern's radio show, and was eventually released on the album "Psychopathics From Outer Space." Eminem responded to the diss with two of his own on "The Marshall Mathers L.P." on a song entitled "Marshall Mathers." Again the gay disses were used, as well as claiming ICP weren't from Detroit, and threatening to fight them. He also released a skit called "Ken Kaniff" featuring two guys giving another guy oral sex and calling each other Shaggy and Violent J.

Not long afterwards Eminem found himself in some legal troubles. He pulled a gun Psychopathic employee Douglas Dail, known better as Dougie. Some type of altercation occured and Eminem ended up pulling a gun on Dail. This feuled the fire inside the feud and ICP released an Internet release song entitled "Nuttin But A Bitch Thang" which featured shots at not only Eminem but also his daughter and wife. Following this diss Eminem began throwing two blowup dolls painted like ICP around the stage and out into the crowd. Then on ICP's "Bizzar/Bizaar" album a song titled "Please Don't Hate Me" was directed at Eminem.

Psychopathic rapper Esham also had troubles with Eminem, and ICP appears on his album throwing a diss at both D-12 and Eminem's ex-wife Kim. To this date Eminem has yet to respond. Has the feud died out? Most likely it has, but only time will tell if Eminem will respond and revive this incredible rap battle. A battle that was serious enough to be featured on the documentary on rappers rivalries entitled "Beef 2" which is scheduled for an August 2004 release.

Anything else is hearsay and baseless sh*t talking. Seeing the flyer, ICP did blow it out of proportion to begin with, there were alot of acts listed. Though Eminem did throw the first stone.

Personally, I don't get why them not liking eachother has anything to do with the fans. It's pretty idiotic to see someone have to take the opinion of an artist they listen to.

ICP and Eminem both suck

uh insane clown posse is awesome and eminem has some good songs but insane clown posse is hella lot better

If you read Violent J's autobiography it's explained how it all came about, but this stuff is old news...they aren't enemies anymore, and they kept it up as long as they did mostly for the public.



Underneath the street, beneath the concrete
If you listen to the night, you can hear my heart beat

ICP ALL THE Way baby
