Add Eminem to the 'list of musicians who are not fans of Donald Trump'.
The rapper's pre-recorded performance was aired during last night's BET Awards in his native Detroit. It saw him take part in the show's long-runner cypher - an informal jam - to perform a rare freestyle that denounced Trump in the strongest possible terms.
With lines like "We better give Obama props 'cos what we got in office now is a kamikaze that'll probably cause a nuclear holocaust" and "Any fan of mine who’s a supporter of his, I’m drawing in the sand a line / You’re either for or against / And if you can’t decide who you like more and you’re split on who you should stand beside, I’ll do it for you with this: fuck you" and references to football player Colin Kaepernick, 'the wall' and more, it's certainly got people talking this morning.
Will the President of the United States of America tweets about Eminem not liking him? Don't bet against it.
Until then, watch the performance and see the Twitter reaction below:

Trump in the AM: "Eminem hasn't been relevant in years. His album sales and ratings have tanked. He isn't a real singer like Kid Rock. Sad!

I still can't tell if Eminem likes Donald Trump more or less than his own mother.

It's gonna be something when Trump yanks Pence off NFL duty and sends him out to freestyle against Eminem

Trump fans, you've lost Eminem and Jay-Z and Hamilton and Hollywood and NFL and NBA and people of color, but at least you have Kid Rock.
