Eminem's 11th studio album, 'Music to be Murdered By,' unexpectedly dropped on Friday.

Music to Be Murdered By,Naturally, not everyone was pleased with everything the Michigan rapper had to say on the project. Some people were particularly offended by lyrics rapped on the track"Unaccommodating," in which Eminem likened himself to Salman Ramadan Abedi, the man responsible for the Manchester Arena bombing that occurred following an Ariana Grande concert in May 2017.

It didn't take long for listeners to lash out about the controversial lyrics online, and numbers of people bashed the 47-year-old rapper for mentioning the horrific incident in Manchester, England that resulted in the deaths of 22 people. Despite the backlash, Eminem fans were quick to defend him. Many of them pointed out the way the rapper actually helped victims and their families immediately following the bombing.

For people mad at Eminem referencing the Ariana Grande concert bombing: these are merely lyrics. He raised $2 million for the victims, which is way more than you did. You were also probably laughing at WWIII jokes about bombing Iran..at least be consistent with what offends youOthers slammed Eminem's naysayers for being hypocrites and noted how silent people were when the rapper referenced other tragedies like school shootings in his music.
