Previously, Eminem fired off bars directed at legendary rapper Melle Mel, saying: “Shoutout to Furious Five and Grandmaster Flash, but boy/ There’s someone who really is furious/ Stay out his path, his wrath avoid/ I’ll be the last to toy with a juice head whose brain is half destroyed like a meteor hit it/ Now with Melle Mel, he lost his ass to ‘roids.”
Now, Melle Mel has taken to Instagram to tease a diss record in response to Eminem. The bars Mel previewed said “No apologies, this ain’t a disclaimer/ I’m the king of legend, the first hall of famer/ Makin’ diss tracks, I know you with that/ Now everybody get ready for the kickback.” The rapper then ended by saying “Why you hurt?” before the preview cut off. Take a listen above.

Eminem jumped on a new song with EZ Mil, his new Shady/Aftermath/Interscope signee, called "Realest," and it's turning a lot of heads on social media.
Eminem addressed Melle Mel's comments about Em being in the top 5 of Billboard & Vibe’s Top 50 greatest rappers list. Earlier this year, Melle stated, "So now if Eminem was another n***a like all the rest of us, would he be Top 5 on that list when a n***a that could rhyme just as good as him is 35? That had records and all that? He’s 35. He’s white."
Em rapped on the song, "Hip Hop has been good to me, huh/ But when they say that I’m only Top 5 ’cause I’m white, why would I be stunned?/ My skin color’s still working against me/ 'Cause second, I should be, to none/ Bein’ white being why they put me at five (Nope)/ That’s why they can’t put me at one."
Em added, "And that is the only retort, is I’m not played in the clubs/ Muthafucka, put a cork in it/ Only reason they still play your sh*t in the clubs is because you still perform in ’em/ I am a guest in this house, but I turned this b*tch into a mansion."
That wasn't the end of Eminem going at Melle as he raps, "Shoutout to Furious Five and Grandmaster Flash, but boy/ There’s someone who really is furious/ Stay out his path, his wrath avoid/ I’ll be the last to toy with a juice head whose brain is half destroyed, like a meteor hit it/ Now with Melle Mel, he lost his ass to ‘roids."
