Eminem Says Snoop Dogg’s ‘Disrespectful’ Comments Sparked His ‘Zeus’ Diss

‘I think it was more about the tone he was using that caught me off-guard,’ Eminem explained in a recent Shade 45 appearance. …

Last month, Eminem shared a deluxe reissue of his 2020 album Music To Be Murdered By. One of its highlights was “Zeus,” which features multiple name-drops. One of them was a diss of Snoop Dogg. “Last thing I need is Snoop doggin’ me / Man, Dogg, you was like a damn god to me,” Eminem rapped. “Nah, not really / I had ‘dog’ backwards.”

Back in July, Snoop told The Breakfast Club that Eminem was not in his top 10 greatest rappers of all-time, and in a recent Shade 45 appearance, Eminem said he accepted that. However, there was one comment from Snoop during that conversation that really rubbed him the wrong way.

“Everything he said, by the way, was fine, up to a point,” Eminem said. “Him saying Dre made the best version of me, absolutely, why would I have a problem with that? Would I be here without Dre? F*ck no, I wouldn’t. The rappers he mentioned from the ‘90s—KRS One, Big Daddy Kane, [Kool] G Rap—I’ve never said I could f*ck with them.” He added:

I think it was more about the tone he was using that caught me off-guard ‘cause I’m like, where is this coming from? I just saw you, what the f*ck? It threw me for a loop. I probably could’ve gotten past the whole tone and everything, but it was the last statement where he said, ‘Far as music I can live without, I can live without that sh*t.’ Now you’re being disrespectful. It just caught me off-guard

Afterwards, the Detroit rapper explained that he had no idea how he was going to respond to Snoop’s comments. “I didn’t know what to do about it because it confused me ‘cause I’m like, bro, same team,” he said. “We’re on the same team. And I have never in my career, my entire career, said a disrespectful word about Snoop.”

“Sing-Along Songs (Album Version)” finds new energy for Arn-Identified Flying Objects and Alien Friends

Arn-Identified Flying Objects and Alien Friends

Arn-Identified Flying Objects And Alien Friends returns to “Sing-Along Songs (Album Version),” with an album version more consistent with the track’s original creative vision. The song came out in 2024 and featured an unusual mix of upbeat music and ironic lyrics that contextualized dark times.

This new version keeps that distinction but makes the arrangement a little spikier, punkier, and more playful. It blends indie pop and pop punk, fusing punk and power pop with a dash of folk rock. The more upbeat music works especially well against the darker outlook at the heart of the writing, creating a tension that keeps the track interesting rather than too serious.

The most obvious change is the intro, which now feels more in line with the original direction the song was meant to take. Co-producer David Myhr’s background vocals add some lift to the second and third choruses. Another key revision is the updated production.

The different parts of the track have more room to play off each other, with a stronger cohesive overall presentation and a more consistent, clear mix from beginning to end. “Sing-Along Songs (Album Version)” feels like a deliberate refinement, and Arn-Identified Flying Objects and Alien Friends take the new version and grind the song’s contrasting moods for a more polished, playful take on an already upbeat tune.

TaniA Kyllikki creates a powerful message of equality through “HUMAN”

TaniA Kyllikki

You might not think a Facebook post could turn into a song, but for TaniA Kyllikki, “HUMAN” is a creative process that turns a moment of frustration into a thoughtful musical statement. This house/techno track explores race, difference, judgment, equality, compassion, and the labels people put on each other. Its artistic direction leans toward empathy, humility, love, and the shared humanity beneath those differences, rather than division.

The song was inspired by Kyllikki’s reaction to the hostility she saw online toward people of different races, cultures, and backgrounds. Kyllikki and her husband, producer and multi-instrumentalist Rynellton (Garry D. Hairston), chose music to express compassion and provoke thought, rather than meet hostility with more of the same.

Kyllikki gives a personal songwriting perspective, and producer/multi-instrumentalist Rynellton helps to translate the original words into a techno-house setting. “HUMAN” strikes a cool creative balance, blending dance-oriented genres with a serious topic and letting its message fit into a modern electronic structure rather than a simple statement.

This song began as words on the net, became Kyllikki, and turned into lyrics that had to be set to music. “HUMAN” is a testimony to TaniA Kyllikki’s ability to take an unsettling observation and turn it into a creative expression of connection. That defining quality is the choice to respond to division with music, a release that is both a reflection of its origins and a continuation of the artist’s expressive path.
