Eminem vs. Jay-Z Beef HOAX: Fake 'Most Overrated Rapper Of All Time' Diss Intensifies, Kanye West Agrees 'Drugs & Laziness' Ruined White 'Rap God'

The rumored hip-hop feud involving Eminem and Jay-Z is fake.

HOV's alleged "most overrated rapper of all time" quote did sound a bit too shady...

Anyway, the epic "diss" interview originated on the hoax entertainment website TheNewsNerd.com. The "about" section of the infamous gossip webloid claims:

The stories posted on TheNewsNerd are for entertainment purposes only. The stories may mimic articles found in the headlines, but rest assured they are purely satirical. 

No wonder why fans couldn't find any video or audio - this recent interview with the Magna Carta rapper doesn't even exist!

But several readers quickly fell for the scam, so NewsNerd decided to up the ante - by now involving Kanye West!

Apparently, Kim Kardashian's hubby agrees that Slim Shady is "totally overrated," although he once had potential that was ultimately wasted:

"Em is a good rapper, but he hasn't made an impact in a long time. I think his gimmick finally wore off and people are starting to see through him. He could've been one of the greatest ever, but he let drugs and laziness get in the way," the website incorrectly quotes Weezy. "He should be a rap God, but I wouldn't even put him in my top 5 - at least not with what he has accomplished so far." 

Of course, race is a huge factor, too:

"Honestly, if he were black, his sales wouldn't be anywhere near what they are. He continues to put out mediocre projects and these muppets keep buying them anyway. Jay-Z just spoke the truth, but people don't really like to hear that. I try to keep my opinion about stuff like this to myself, because I know how the people will run with it." 

Pure nonsense. Such interviews were never conducted - Jay and West have yet to say anything negative about the infamous "Rap God" emcee, despite earlier reports.
