Eminem recently released his latest album, titled “The Death of Slim Shady (Coup De Grâce),” where he didn't shy away from taking shots at various celebrities. In one of the tracks, Eminem used wordplay to reference the ongoing charges against Sean “Diddy” Combs, including allegations of rape, sexual assault, and sex trafficking. The song titled “Fuel” includes lyrics where Eminem spells out the word 'rapper' in a way that alludes to Combs' former stage name, P. Diddy.

Combs has faced accusations from his ex-partner, Cassie Ventura, who sued him for rape and abuse. Following these claims, additional individuals have come forward with rape allegations, and Combs' properties were raided by the FBI as part of a sex trafficking investigation. Combs has denied all allegations.
