Rapper Eminem continues to allege that Sean "Diddy" Combs was involved in the deaths of The Notorious B.I.G. and Tupac Shakur. This claim surfaces again on the newly released track "Fuel - Shady Edition," part of the expanded "The Death of Slim Shady (Coup de Grâce): Mourner's Edition" album. Eminem first made these accusations on the original version of "Fuel" and on the 2018 diss track "Killshot," which targeted MGK, an artist signed to Combs' Bad Boy Records. On "Fuel - Shady Edition," featuring Westside Boogie and Grip, Eminem raps, ""Notorious B.I.G.'s death was the domino effects of Tupac's murder / Like facial tissue, whose card should I clean next? Puff's?" He continues, "'Til he's in police handcuffs, guilty, will he step up? / Like gee, never turned himself in, who knows all the murders there'll have been / Or me mixed up, prepare for me to not choose none of my words carefully." In "Killshot," Eminem directed similar accusations at Diddy, rapping, "'Kells, the day you put out a hit's the day Diddy admits / That he put the hit out that got Pac killed,'"

Eminem's 2023 album, "
The Death of Slim Shady", released in July, contained numerous
references to Sean Combs, also known as Diddy. Throughout the album, Eminem
accuses Combs of various crimes and misdeeds. On the track "
Antichrist", Eminem references a
disturbing video depicting Combs physically assaulting his former girlfriend, Cassie Ventura. The song "
Bad One" mentions allegations that Combs planted an explosive device in Kid Cudi's car during his relationship with Ventura. Additionally, on the original version of "
Fuel", Eminem
claims that Combs was involved in the deaths of both Biggie Smalls and Tupac Shakur. Combs is currently embroiled in a series of
legal challenges stemming from Ventura's lawsuit filed against him in November. This week, former Danity Kane member Dawn Richard added to the mounting legal pressure by filing a lawsuit against Combs, accusing him of
sexual battery and assault during their decade-long professional relationship. Source: https://variety.com/2024/music/news/eminem-sean-diddy-combs-connection-tupac-biggie-murders-fuel-shady-edition-1236143332/
