Shady XV New Eminem Album: 'Monster' Rapper Slams Lana Del Rey, Ray Rice in Freestyle Rap Video
Eminem's freestyle rap video to promote his new compilation album "Shady XV," features rap lyrics from the Detroit rapper saying that he will punch singer, Lana Del Rey in the face, the New York Daily News reports.
Eminem's violent lyrics not only mention Lana Del Rey, they also mention former NFL player Ray Rice, who was recently suspended from the NFL indefinitely for attacking his wife, Janay in an elevator, Billboard reports.
In the freestyle, Eminem claims that he will punch Rey similar to how Rice was caught punching his wife in an elevator.
The lyrics read, "But I may fight for gay rights, especially if they dyke is more of a knockout than Janay Rice/Play nice? Bitch I'll punch Lana Del Rey right in the face twice, like Ray Rice in broad daylight in the plain sight of the elevator surveillance/'Til her head is banging on the railing, then celebrate with the Ravens."
Rey has yet to respond to Eminem's diss. However, Rey's friend and rapper Azalea Banks took to Twitter to slam Eminem and encourage Rey to retaliate, Us Weekly reports.
Check out Banks' tweet below.
@LanaDelRey tell him to go back to his trailer park and eat his microwave hotpocket dinner and suck on his sisters tiddies.

Though Eminem had not-so-nice things to say about the "Summertime Sadness" singer in his freestyle, Rey has openly praised Eminem for his musical work in the past, the New York Daily News reports.
During a 2012 interview with RNB Junk, Rey revealed that Eminem "really changed my life. I didn't know music could be intelligent."
She continued, "He wasn't just rhyming for rhyme's sake. That made me think I could actually talk about the way things actually were. He's a genius. I f**king love Eminem."
In addition to Lana Del Rey, Eminem has also openly slammed several female artists including Britney Spears, Christina Aguilera and Mariah Carey, Billboard reports.
