"If you didn’t want to be in the beef, you shouldn’t have opened your mouth": Eminem on writing a diss track about Limp Bizkit

The former friends fell out over the rapper's argument with Everlast

Not to boil down the career of one of the greatest hip-hop artists of all time into a series of entertainingly and petty arguments, but if Eminem wasn’t such a distinguished rapper, maybe he could’ve found a way to carve a career out of starting rows with people. He’s brilliant at it. Even when his musical output has taken a dip, the Detroit rapper still finds a way to have some small print beef on the go with someone. He’s not above switching from genre to genre, either, his squabbles over the years ranging from Mariah Carey to Joe Budden, Christina Aguilera to Machine Gun Kelly , Ja Rule to Daniel O’Donnell, Insane Clown Posse to Will Smith, with only one of those quarrels made up.

One of the best, though, was a three-way barney between him, Limp Bizkit and rapper Everlast, with Eminem releasing a diss track titled Girls on the 2001 debut record by his spin-off group D12. In an interview at the time, Eminem explained why he felt compelled to dig out Fred Durst’s nu-metal titans, with whom he'd previously been friends. “The reason I dissed Limp Bizkit is because they’re little fucking girls,” Eminem began. “The reason I dissed them is because when all the beef with Everlast was going on, right, they wanted to jump in the middle of it, they wanted to jump in it with me and take my side and they wanted to do a song with me… Everlast did a song dissing me, then I dissed him back, then he dissed me back again, so I was going to diss him back again one final time so I was telling them about it and they wanted to get on the song.”

Eminem recounted Durst telling him to write some verses for him to sing and said Limp Bizkit turntablist shared his own thoughts on Everlast. “DJ Lethal is like, ‘Man, I hate Everlast, he comes over, he steals my weed,’ all this shit, so I’m like ‘OK, if you guys really want to get on a song, I’ll set up the studio time in LA, let’s do it’.”

This is the part, though, where their friendship hit the skids, the Limp lads obviously unaware of Eminem’s total dedication to seeing a diss track through. “So we set up the studio time, the day I get to the studio, that day, Fred pages us, ‘Yo, I’ve got a toothache, I don’t think I’ll be able to make it today and DJ Lethal says he doesn’t know how he feels about doing the song cos he’s still cool with Everlast’,” he explained. “So I’m thinking, ‘Alright, if he’s so cool with Everlast, why was he telling me he hates him?’. You don’t say that to somebody you barely know, I barely know those guys. That’s a little girl scout right there.”

Even then, though, Eminem said he didn’t have reason enough to fall out with Limp Bizket, even though we suspect that’s a lie. No, what Eminem identified as pushing him over the line was an interview that Lethal gave to MTV. “My opinion of them lowered but I thought, ‘I’ll do the song anyways’,” he said. “I still put their names in my raps and used them against Everlast and then, not even two weeks later, these motherfuckers are on MTV and they ask Lethal about the Everlast thing and Lethal says, ‘I think personally Eminem is a good rapper, he’s a better MC but I think in a fight, Everlast would whip his ass’. Now come on dawg! I’m sitting at home watching the TV and I’m like, ‘What?! What the fuck?! You were supposed to be on the song with me!’. What kind of shit is that? I would not have made a move if it wasn’t for that, if ten or twenty million people did not see him say that Everlast would whip my ass. There was no fucking call for it dawg, if you didn’t want to be in the beef, you shouldn’t have opened your mouth and had an opinion. So that’s why I dissed them.”

Watch the full interview below:

In an AMA session on Reddit a few years ago, Durst was asked about the fallout and offered up a diplomatic answer on the whole debacle. "I understand why he was upset, mainly with Lethal, but over time I've learned there are better ways to deal with things that upset us,” he said. “I have remained a loyal fan of his and choose to remember the good times we shared. He is definitely one of the very few best rappers of all time."

Eleven Angry Men Vent in New Jersey

By Pat Charles

Pat Charles

It’s a good thing Limp Bizkit aren’t touring under the “Family Values” banner anymore. Sometimes it’s better to skip the nudge and wink and call things straight — hence the no-bullshit moniker for this year’s model, the Anger Management Tour . Consider the line-up: West Coast battle-rapper Xzibit, who was abused as a child; Papa Roach, who sing heartfelt, noisy anthems of teen suicide and broken homes; and Limp’s co-headliner Eminem , whose venomous raps about his estranged mother and his now-estranged wife have landed him in the courtroom.

Needless to say, there was more than enough anger to go around for the sold-out crowd at the tour’s opening night at the Continental Airlines Arena in East Rutherford, N.J. Just how much of it the crowd could actually manage was another story.

The first blast of rage came from Xzibit, whose gravel-like vocals moved stealthily yet forcefully to the grittiest of beats. Although the rapper spent less than half an hour venting his deadly diatribes on stage, it gave everyone a firsthand glimpse of the darkness waiting to be unveiled come December when his new album drops.

Papa Roach’s high-voltage set, which was almost as short as Xzibit’s, was diluted by cluttered sound. Coby Dick’s agonized outcries had trouble breaking free from the distorted acoustics that were blasted by his bandmates. But when the group sounded off with the anthemic “Last Resort,” the crowd completely took over, helping boost the troubled set.

When both the floor and the seats swelled up with a sea of red baseball caps and fake Slim Shadys, the arena was at capacity for the remainder of the night. After a Blair Witch -meets-Slim Shady video was played to introduce Eminem’s set, the curtains dropped and Marshall Mathers appeared on stage sporting overalls, holding a chainsaw, wearing a white hockey mask and standing in front of a wooden house and a yard. When he pulled his mask off, the cheers rose to ear-splitting levels; Eminem greeted them with “I’m Back” and the audience chanted the chorus aloud and in unison. Slim’s partner-in-rhyme Proof shuffled across the stage with him, as the DJ dropped the beats from the house’s cracked-open rooftop.

Editor’s picks

The 250 greatest guitarists of all time, the 500 greatest albums of all time, the 50 worst decisions in movie history, every awful thing trump has promised to do in a second term.

As Em and Proof swaggered from east to west, Eminem pointed at the house and said, “This is the house I grew up in. I’m gonna invite some friends to come out and play.” On that note, his group D-12 stormed out the shack’s front door to perform the moronically infectious “Under the Influence” and their belligerent new single, “I’ll Shit on You.” Spraying unlimited vulgarities and ranting with a synergetic aura, D-12 did the impossible: They showed that Eminem is not alone in his dangerously off-the-tracks train of thought. They even did a quick a cappella spoof of ‘N Sync’s “Tearing Up My Heart” (“It’s tearing up my ass when I’m with you!”).

When D-12 took a break, Eminem invited English songstress Dido out on stage to duet on the heart-wrenching rap ballad “Stan.” But the tempo was a major deceleration from what D-12 ignited just moments before, and it took awhile to adjust to the change in pace. It didn’t go unnoticed that Eminem sang every verse in “Stan” except for the last one, wherein the sensitive-guy within him responds to the namesake’s letter. His mood tonight was more along the lines with the following song, “I Just Don’t Give a Fuck.”

Surprisingly, Eminem didn’t bring any Christina Aguilera or ICP blow-up dolls on stage, but he still had plenty to say about someone else. “How many faggots in here like Whitey Ford?” he asked the crowd. “If you like Whitey Ford, I want y’all to take the dicks out of your asses and wave them in the air! That mothafucka dissed me on an album, so I dissed him back.” The crowd’s faint cheer, however, sounded more like a mockery than applause. And although heads began bobbing in synch to the potent “Drug Ballad” and the groove-laden “Cum On Everybody,” there wasn’t much excitement when Eminem urged the crowd between beats to chant “Take them drugs!” Credit the crowd this much: By the time his two-hour set was over, most everyone seemed to have a grasp on the difference between ill and sick.

Come for the Torture, Stay for the Poetry: This Might Be Taylor Swift's Most Personal Album Yet

Madonna sued again for late concerts: 'a consumer's worst nightmare', trump privately rages about his sketch artist, courtroom nap reports, trump calls for less courthouse security, more maga protests.

But there was still one more drill. The appetite for some Chocolate Starfish and Hot Dog Flavored Water was evident, and Limp Bizkit seemed to be the ones cheesy enough to deliver it. On the heels of a heavily anticipated album release and armed with a larger-than-life robot as a stage, Fred and company waltzed out before charging into a monstrous set, sounded off by his ode to Trent Reznor, “Hot Dog.” Aside from some new material, which included his hip-hop collaboration with Xzibit (“Getcha Groove On”), the new stage design and a group of dancing Bizkettes surrounding him during a couple of numbers, Durst led the audience through the same old flashy routine. Although he took no stabs at Creed frontman Scott Stapp this time, Durst too spit venom. “Christina Aguilera is a fucking bitch!” he exclaimed, dedicating one of his hate songs to her. “I did her a fucking favor and she turned around and started talkin’ shit,” he continued before referring to her as a “fuckin’ whore.”

Do You 'Stan' Eminem? If So, He Has a Form for You to Fill Out

How pirates and factory workers changed music forever (and made eminem’s life miserable), eminem's chaotic 'infinite 2' april fools' day trailer teases new album that might exist, but isn't out.

The crowd couldn’t help but guffaw. And perhaps the lesson learned from this case of anger management is that laughter is the best medicine.

Limp Bizkit Announce 2021 Tour Dates With Spiritbox

Limp Bizkit and Spiritbox are going on tour together for one of the weirdest and most awesome bills of the summer.

The 12-date run of shows will begin July 29 in Chicago and finish up on Aug. 24 in Los Angeles. Pre-sale will begin tomorrow (June 23) while tickets will go on sale for the general public on June 25.

Limp Bizkit and Spiritbox will also run the festival circuit this summer and fall. Spiritbox’s highly anticipated debut album, Eternal Blue , will be released Sept. 17.

"I think this is the most scared I've been to put out a song," Spiritbox's Courtney LaPlante recently said about "Secret Garden." "Because I realize as we continue to release music in single format, listeners can start to assume what kind of band we are, and are alarmed when we do not meet those assumptions. I want to continue to showcase the fluidity that is inherent in heavy music, and even though this is just one part of a full body of work that may not sound exactly like this song, it is a song that we love and are obsessed with. I celebrate variation. 'Secret Garden' is exciting to me for this reason. I'm scared but excited, like I'm about to hit the big drop on a roller coaster, and I'm fully embracing that."

See the full list of Limp Bizkit and Spiritbox dates below.

7/29 - Chicago, Ill. @ Metro 8/02 - Clive, Iowa @ Horizon Event Center 8/05 - Wallingford, Conn. @ The Dome at Oakdale 8/06 - Asbury Park, N.J. @ Stone Pony Summer Stage 8/09 - Buffalo, N.Y. @ Rapids Theatre 8/12 - Gilford, N.H. @ Bank of New Hampshire Pavilion 8/13 - New York, N.Y. @ Irving Plaza 8/15 - Huntington, N.Y. @ The Paramount 8/16 - Norfolk, Va. @ The NorVa 8/19 - Lincoln, Neb. @ Centennial Mall & Street 8/21 - Austin, Texas @ Stubb’s Waller Creek and Amphitheater 8/24 - Los Angeles, Calif. @ Palladium

Filter, Limp Bizkit To Play Family Values Tour

LOS ANGELES -- Industrial-rockers Filter will join thrash-rockers Limp Bizkit on this year's hard-core Family Values tour, Filter leader Richard Patrick said Tuesday.

Top-selling rapper Eminem, who has developed a reputation for his explicit and often violent lyrics, also is expected to appear on the second edition of the tour, Patrick said. However, a spokesperson for Eminem said the rapper's appearance is not confirmed.

"It's a cool spot to be in," Patrick said of the tour. "Eminem's gonna be out there and [so are] a lot of bands I respect for having some integrity."

Limp Bizkit are the only act Family Values organizers have confirmed will play this year's tour. The Deftones are also a possibility, Korn bassist Reg "Fieldy" Arvizu said earlier this year. Korn, the thrash-rap band that founded and headlined the tour in 1998, won't be on this year's outing.

Instead, they'll continue working on the follow-up to their 1998 album, Follow the Leader.

Patrick said Family Values' draw of young fans was one of the reasons Filter -- who haven't released an album since their 1995 debut, Short Bus -- wanted to play the festival, which was designed in part as a reaction to the "Family Values" conservative social movement in the U.S. Another was the respect the frontman has for Korn, he added.

"I like what the tour's all about, but it's mainly because we'll be in front of a lot of kids right as our record comes out," Patrick said. Filter's eclectic second album, Title of Record, is due in August.

"I respect the guys in Korn for being unique at a [time] when a lot of things out there aren't -- a bunch of novelty acts with no substance whatsoever, just a bunch of crap," Patrick said.

"They're doing something new to music. [Korn frontman Jonathan Davis] is an intensely complicated man, and ... what he sings about is relevant."

Eminem worked on The Slim Shady LP -- currently the country's sixth best-selling album -- at the same San Fernando Valley (Calif.) studio where Filter are mixing Title of Record. The rapper has stopped by a few times to see people at the studio, and Patrick and Filter guitarist Gino Leonardo said they've struck up a friendship with him.

Earlier this year, Eminem joined Limp Bizkit's Fred Durst in the studio to rhyme on "Turn Me Loose." It is unclear whether that song will appear on Limp Bizkit's second album, Significant Other.

The Limp Bizkit album is slated to feature a collaboration with Davis and Stone Temple Pilots' Scott Weiland on "Nobody Like You" and may also include "Shut the Fuck Up," featuring rapper Method Man. It will follow up the Jacksonville, Fla., band's Three Dollar Bill Y'all$ (1997), which features a revved-up cover of pop singer George Michael's "Faith" (RealAudio excerpt of Limp Bizkit version).

Filter, who will rehearse in Chicago for the tour beginning in June, already have their co-headlining set planned, according to Patrick.

Their shows will start with a solo cello piece, which will give way to the industrial-rock assault "Welcome to the Fold," followed by about five more songs from Title of Record. "Then we're gonna do all the radio hits we've had, all the soundtrack stuff," Patrick said, referring to such hits as

"Hey Man Nice Shot" (RealAudio excerpt) and "(Can't You) Trip Like I Do," their collaboration with Crystal Method from the Spawn soundtrack.

Patrick called the 11-song Title of Record "the quintessential Filter record. It's exactly what I thought Filter should have been. The first record was very sophomoric, very juvenile. It just seems very young and aggressive -- drum machines and loud guitars and screaming.

"This record has more mature emotions. It has that youthful aggression, but it doesn't just focus in on it."

Other songs on Title of Record include the orchestral ballad "Miss Blue," the hardcore punk song "Captain Bligh," the anthemic, acoustic-turned-heavy rocker "Skinny," the techno exploit "The Best Things" and the catchy pop tune "Take a Picture."

The 24-year-old Eminem (born Marshall Mathers), who is closing up a six-week tour in support of The Slim Shady LP -- which includes such tracks as "Brain Damage" and the hit single "My Name Is" -- has taken heat recently for the album's lyrics. The songs depict acts of murder and rape and some lyrics could be construed as homophobic.

The Family Values tour made its inaugural run in the fall with a mix of jackhammering hard rock and head-battering hip-hop by Korn, German industrial rockers Rammstein, Limp Bizkit, pop-rockers Orgy and rapper Ice Cube.

The 27-date tour was seen by nearly 250,000 fans and was hailed by concert-industry executives as one of the most successful package tours of 1998. Its success placed it in the company of such other concert-tour bonanzas as the female-centric Lilith Fair, metal-heavy Ozzfest and George Strait's Country Music Fest.

The outing recently spawned an album and video, both mostly recorded Oct. 18 at the UNO Lakefront Arena in New Orleans.
