Eminem has put an end to his rap feuds and decided to focus on positivity. Despite this, an old track named "Smack You," believed to be recorded by Eminem in the mid-2000s, surfaced online recently. In the song, Eminem takes shots at Death Row co-founder Suge Knight and Ja Rule, reflecting the tense relationship they had at that time.
Eminem's lyrics targeting Suge Knight in "Smack You" are harsh, as he insinuates Suge's involvement in Tupac's tragic shooting. Throughout the track, Eminem accuses Suge of being responsible for the deaths of Tupac and The Notorious B.I.G. Eminem also promises to reveal the truth, even if it comes at a cost.

Although "Smack You" is labeled as a diss track against Suge Knight, much of Eminem's criticism in the song is directed at Ja Rule. Their ongoing feud during the early 2000s escalated when Eminem, backed by 50 Cent, intensified the conflict. The aggressive nature of Eminem's verses in "Smack You" echoes his previous disses towards Ja Rule. The lyrics mock Ja Rule and Irv Gotti, highlighting their rivalry.
It's unusual to hear an Eminem diss track emerging two decades later, especially as he has made efforts to move past such conflicts. Even in his recent song "Guilty Conscience 2," Eminem alludes to his previous clashes with Ja Rule. Nevertheless, "Smack You" showcases Eminem's lyrical prowess during a time when he had many grievances to address.
