Eminem is known for collaborating with all different types of artists both in and beyond hip hop and rap.
And while you might not remember the collaboration between Bon Iver and Eminem exactly, you may recall Eminem’s 2018 song ‘Fall’, which used Bon Iver’s vocals.

Vernon was therefore unaware of the lyrics used by Eminem, which included a homophobic slur and shots fired at fellow rapper Tyler, The Creator.
It’s unfortunate to see artists who had the potential for a unique collaboration fall short.
In this situation, one party clearly was bothered by the insensitivity of the way the collaboration turned out.
