Over the years, Lord Jamar has been Em’s critic. Par for the course, the MC has weighed in on Em’s recent comments on Hip Hop culture.

In a recent interview with KXNG Crooked, Em was asked if he believes he’s a “guest in the house of Hip Hop.” Without hesitation, Shady conceded — but without referencing Lord Jamar’s name.

“The funny shit is, with the whole beef a certain person [Lord Jamar], I never said I wasn’t a guest,” he said. “I’m absolutely a guest. I never said I wasn’t.”

On Friday being February 21, the same day the interview premiered — Jamar took his thoughts to Twitter and essentially claimed victory in the debate.

“I guess his EGO wouldn’t allow him to say ‘Lord Jamar was right the whole time, & I was buggin for coming at him the way I did…my bad…I am a guest in the house of Hip Hop.’

“But at least the EGO was quelled enough to admit what I’d been saying all along.” He added in a follow up Tweet.
