MC Shan Bashes Dr. Umar Johnson In Fiery Rant Defending Eminem
MC Shan refused to accept any suggestion that Eminem is a culture vulture. The Hip-Hop pioneer co-signed Eminem and attacked polarizing internet celebrity Dr. Umar Johnson in an interview with Panda Chop News.
“Eminem was in trenches,” MC Shan said when asked about the culture vulture label. “F### that! Ain’t nothing else to say about this question. That m########### was in the trenches.”
MC Shan previously defended Eminem after Dr. Umar claimed it was “white supremacy” to include Slim Shady in Hip-Hop GOAT discussions. Last December, Eminem showed his appreciation by posting a photo of three MC Shan cassettes he owned.
Eminem’s gesture resonated with MC Shan, who reiterated his issues with Dr. Umar’s opinions. MC Shan highlighted Eminem’s support and scoffed at Dr. Umar, who said he grew up listening to the Juice Crew member.
“That n#### had three of my s####,” MC Shan said. “Eminem has three of my m############ [cassettes]. He ain’t just have one. How many people of my m############ culture came back and said, ‘I’ve got this to match Eminem?’ F### y’all n##### talking about? There is no separation or divide, period. And now if you wanna look at it like that, now I could start questioning all the folks that say they f### with me. How come y’all dogging Eminem as a white boy, but he could show me three of my cassettes and not—I can’t put three of you m############ together that could show me you got one. So, f### y’all n#####. F### y’all n#####!”
He continued, “And that’s that Dr. Umar m############ message that you don’t deal with reality. You just look at the color. If I looked at the color, I’d say, ‘F### Eminem. He’s got three tapes, so the f### what? He’s white.’ But no, that’s a Dr. Umar thing … Dr. Umar, I don’t deal on psychological f###### aspect 101. You gotta come up here somewhere. Although I don’t have a doctorate, so what? You tried to make me feel bad. F### you!”
