On a new song released today, December 18, Grammy award winning rapper, Eminem has apologised to singer, Rihanna for "siding" with her ex-boyfriend Chris Brown, who infamously assaulted her in 2009.
Eminem was
referring to a decade-old song that leaked in 2019, on which he said "of
course I side with Chris Brown"
But in a new
song titled 'zeus' which appears on Eminem's surprise album Music to be
Murdered By Side B, released Friday, Eminem raps: "And wholeheartedly
apologies Rihanna for that song that leaked/I'm sorry, Rih, it wasn't meant to
cause you grief."
On his new
track, he admitted the original lyric "was wrong of me". The new album accompanies his January album
'Music to be Murdered By'.
At the time
the track leaked last year, Eminem's spokesperson said: "This is a leak of
something that's over 10 years old. After Eminem recorded it, he scrapped it,
and rewrote it."
Brown pleaded
guilty to the assault in 2009, and received five year’s probation and a
community service order.
Eminem and
Rihanna have collaborated several times, including on 2010's US number one
single Love the Way You Lie, as well as Numb on her 2012 album Unapologetic and
The Monster from The Marshall Mathers LP 2 in 2013.
The rapper's
new album features collaborations with Dr Dre, Ty Dolla $ign, J Premier and
Skylar Gray.
