“I was harassed daily by this fat kid named D’Angelo Bailey/
An eighth grader who acted obnoxious, cause his father boxes/
so everyday he’d shove me in the lockers/One day he came in the bathroom while I was pissin/And had me in the position to beat me into submission/He banged my head against the urinal til he broke my nose,
Soaked my clothes in blood, grabbed me and choked my throat/
I tried to plead and tell him, ‘we shouldn’t beef’/But he just wouldn’t leave, he kept chokin me and I couldn’t breathe.”
Those lyrics were enough to provoke a one million dollar defamation suit from D’Angelo Bailey. This past week in Michigan the suit was dismissed by Judge Deborah Servitto.
The surprising part was how Judge Servitto went about delivering her decision; in her own little rap. “It is therefore this Court’s ultimate position/that Eminem is entitled to summary disposition…stories no one would take as fact/they’re an exaggeration of a childish act.” Of course, Bailey’s lawyer will be appealing the decision.
