Nick Cannon clears up speculation of him having a dispute with Eminem following him calling the Slim Shady racially insensitive on his blog in response to the rapper's song "Bagpipes From Baghdad", which dissed his wife Mariah Carey. He opens up to Entertainment Weekly, "I never even considered it as beef. It's not beef. It's just, Hey, I heard the record. I said what I had to say."

In further statement, Nick reveals that he did not take down the post, which blasted Eminem for dissing Mariah, because "somebody instructed [him] to do it or anything like that." He explains, "[It] pretty much crashed my site. There'd be thousands and thousands of comments and people couldn't leave comments on other posts or any of that stuff. So that was the only reason why I took it down."

Previously, Eminem shared to public that Nick Cannon had misinterpreted his message in "Bagpipes From Baghdad". Despite his harsh words toward Nick and Mariah Carey, the Detroit rapper said he actually meant to wish them the best.
