Eminem Zingers Galore On Shady-Killing 'Houdini' Megan Shooting, LGBTQ+, R. Kelly Get Punchlined!!!

Eminem didn't spare anyone's feelings on his first single which signals the last of his Slim Shady character -- he went after Dr. Dre, his own kids and even Megan Thee Stallion on this one.

The song sounds and looks like his 2002 "Without Me" classic ... Em pokes fun at aging into a politically correct, social media/VR society -- yet still dons the 'ol Robin outfit and tackles today's topics with his Batman -- Dr. Dre -- by his side. Eminem is in rare form here.
