Earlier this year an unheard Eminem track entitled “Smack You,” leaked online. Though it is unclear what year Slim Shady released the track, in the song he appears to take shots at Ja Rule and Suge Knight.

Suge Knight’s Son Hits Back at Eminem
Suge Knight is currently incarcerated. So he doesn’t quite have the means to respond. However, Suge’s son was quick to step up in his honor. Suge Jr is featured on a new song by Polish rap group Elita Kaliska, entitled “Ocean Krwi”.
On the song he calls out ”internet gangsters” who “dry snitch.”
In a separate statement, he confirmed the lyrics
were in rebuttal to the Detroit emcee’s comments on “Smack You.”
“Eminem claims that the song was created in the mid-2000s. It’s strange that it’s being released now when my father has no chance to defend himself. It’s also strange that he had many opportunities to tell him all this to his face. But didn’t have the courage,” Knight said, per NME.
“An honorable man doesn’t kick the defenseless, so I decided to defend my father’s honor and record my response as part of a song that happened to be about this topic. If Em claims that this song is from two decades ago and declares in it that he will reveal the alleged truth about my father’s connection to the attack on ‘Pac, then where is his truth? Maybe he will finally have the courage to confess it?”
The song leaked online in January. On the track, Slim Shady hinted at Suge Knight being responsive to the late 1990s deaths of the Notorious BIG and Tupac Shakur.
Knight’s Death Row Records had a very public dispute with Biggie’s label, Bad Boy Records in the 1990s. He was also one of the last people seen with Tupac Shakur on the night he was murdered on the Las Vegas Strip.
