'Campaign Speech' exhibits the lyricist's stance on the most timely and relevant issues, dissing controversial personalities such as Donald Trump, George Zimmerman, and several others. In the track, he touches on appropriate matters including police brutality, racism, and the presidential elections.
Here is how he puts-down the names mentioned in the song:
Donald Trump
With a title such as 'Campaign Speech', it would be no surprise to see Donald Trump's name on the lyrics. In it, Em refers to Trump as a 'loose cannon' who 'runs his campaign with his own cash', and 'doesn't have to answer to no one'.
George Zimmerman
Expressing his rage, 'The Real Slim Shady' singer calls out George Zimmerman, the man who lethally put a bullet in Trayvon Martin, adding that he would like to put a florescent orange dress on Zimmerman and give his remains to Martin's dad.
Stacey Dash
Even Fox News commentator Stacey Dash could not escape Em's wrath as he mentions her in the track for her controversial statements about Black History Month.
Casey Anthony
In 2008, Casey Anthony was infamous for the murder of her 2-year-old daughter, but was later aquitted of the charges. The rapper declares his impulse to throw 'Stacey Dash and Casey Anthony's crazy asses in the backseat.'
Mercifully, not everyone mentioned in the song was subject to Eminem's coarse words. Some he may not have intently praised, but instead, referenced and related them to himself. Here's a few:
Robin Thicke
Eminem expresses his similarity with the 'Blurred Lines' singer citing his inability to be in a monogamous relationship. Robin Thicke is facing reports of alleged infidelity after his public breakup with Paula Patton.
Chuck Norris
Eminem has always been flashy about his rap game, and in his latest release, he refers to himself as 'Chuck Norris with a Thesaurus.'
Colin Kaepernick
To elaborate on his stance against police brutality, he referenced San Francisco 49ers quarterback, Colin Kaepernick and his 'practice sock.'
After three years of inactivity, fans are exremely excited for the release of the new album announced by Slim Shady himself. The minimalistic single 'Campaign Speech' undoubtedly only adds to the hype.
