Coi Leray is clapping back at Eminem's diss on his new track "Doomsday Pt. 2."

"Well, I guess then I regret to inform you, hate to spoil the day/ But this doesn’t bring me no joy to say/ Guess that Coi Leray feat’ is in the toilet, ay?" Eminem raps.

Coi responded with a series of posts on X (formerly known as Twitter) about the diss and is trying to steer clear of the negativity from the track.

"Misery loves company. N----- went through so much shit in 2023, you would have thought people found God in 2024," she began. "Mfs be so caught up in the devils work, it’s almost Impossible for them to change. Misery loves company. Rap beef is so washed and tired. Exhausting. Embarrassing. Just f------ over all corny as f---."

"I got no issues with no one," she continued adding that she's caught in the middle of beef because of her dad Benzino. "I’m so locked in on my grown and sexy vibes… if anybody don’t like me, that’s something they gotta take on with them selves. There’s no way I’m about to entertain these grown a-- men and the beef they been having for over 20years . Lmao it’s so stupid all I can do is laugh. 2 decades later ?? gtfoh im grown. Move along. Go Stream my s---"

Coi Leray's Father Benzino Releases Diss Track Aimed At Eminem

While Coi might be taking the high road, her father Benzino, had some choice words for the Detroit rapper. On Sunday (Jan. 28), Benzino released "Vulturius," which had several bars aimed at Eminem.

"Candy-a-- Eminem, bitch-a- feminine/ Mad he lack melanin, all Valium’d up again/ Awe s--- here we go, Benzino vs. Jim Crow/ Know a custy when I see one, how many times you overdose?" he rapped.

"You a punk, plan my funeral? Please, you shoot who?/ Square ain’t even go circle the block for Proof/ And the truth, my daughter had a life that I never had/ I’m probably more Boston George than America’s Dad/ But I provide it, food, clothes, gifts kept you excited/ Now you let the industry really lynch, keep us divided," he continued.

Eminem and Benzino's beef began back in 2002. Benzino, who previously owned hip-hop magazine The Source, gave The Eminem Show a 4/5 rating despite being praised by the masses. The album won Best Rap Album at the 45th Annual GRAMMYS and earned a nomination for Album Of The Year. Benzino later admitted that he was being petty by not giving Eminem's album a perfect score.

At the time of this writing, Eminem has not responded to Benzino. Listen to "Vulturius," here.

Hip-Hop is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. While the genre is one of the youngest, it is not short on its impact on the culture.

The genre originated in the early '70s in New York in African-American communities in the Bronx. There are several aspects to hip-hop in regard to music making, such as rap, djing, and freestyling. Those created other avenues in the art form, such as breakdancing and graffiti art.

Hip-hop has been in the mainstream in ways that were never thought possible by its early adopters of the craft.

"When we started on this journey decades ago, we were often told, 'No'. No, you won't be able to leave New Jersey. No, if you rap, you can't sing. No, singers can't become actresses. No, actors can't also produce," Queen Latifah said to Entertainment Weekly in a statement as she is set to become the first female rap artist to be celebrated at the Kennedy Center Honors.

"To now be recognized amongst so many multi-hyphenates feels unbelievable, not for just me and my team, but for our community. The work the Kennedy Center does is immeasurable so I'm beyond grateful for this recognition."

Throughout this year, hip-hop has been celebrated in performances by some of the greats. At the 2023 BET Awards, there were performances by MC Lyte, Big Daddy Kane, The Sugarhill Gang, D-Nice, Warren G, Yo-Yo, Trick Daddy, Trina, Uncle Luke, Redman, Erick Sermon, and Keith Murray -- also known as "Def Squad," and more highlighted rap on Culture's Biggest Night.

Earlier this year, Questlove curated a hip-hop tribute at the 2023 Grammy Awards where Missy Elliott, Run DMC, Salt n Pepa, Public Enemy, Grandmaster Flash, Ice-T, Queen Latifah, Busta Rhymes with Spliff Star, Nelly, GloRilla, Lil Baby, and more took to the stage.
