Surely Eminem’s Manchester Arena Joke Is Too Far?

Eminem has dropped surprise new album 'Music To Be Murdered By'.

The rap icon has a penchant for controversy, and with his shock release just a few hours old fans are poring over the lyrics.

The album features a plethora of guests, ranging from Anderson .Paak to the late Juice WRLD.

Album track 'Unaccommodated', though, takes it all a step too far, with Eminem joking about the Manchester Arena attack.

On the song he raps: "But I'm contemplating yelling 'Bombs away' on the game / Like I'm outside of an Ariana Grande concert waiting."

23 people died at Manchester Arena when a terrorist detonated a home made bomb belt – hundreds more were injured.
