David Cook joins Adam Lambert and Clay Aiken as the latest Idol to get name checked in an Eminem song. Tunes from Eminem’s upcoming album, Recovery have leaked on the internet, and in “On Fire, ” Cook gets mentioned in the second verse:
I just wrote a bullsh*t hook in between two long ass verses if you mistook the for a song, look
This aint a song its a warnin to brooke, hogan and david cook
That the crook just took over so book
Run as fast as you can, stop writin and kill it
Im lightning in a skillet your a fuck*n flash in a pan
I pop up you bitches scatter like hot grease splashin a fan
Mr mathers is the man
Check it out here. The reference comes at the 1:40 mark. (Not for everyone–F bombs ahead)
Last fall, when Adam and Clay made an appearance in Eminem’s, “Elevator” there was controversy over whether the controversial rapper referred to them using a gay slur. David got off kind of easy, I think.
Recovery is set to be released on June 22.
