In the new song, the 47-year-old rapper criticised people who are 'scoffin' about wearing face masks during the COVID-19 pandemic.

The mask serve to prevent spreading and contracting the virus. However, many people have debated whether it is an affective method in order to not spread the virus.

In a verse on 'The Adventures of Moon Man & Slim Shady', he raps:

"F*ck going on man? (Yeah)/Bunch of half wits up in office/Half of us walkin' around like a zombie apocalypse"

Em goes onto address people refusing to wear masks, spitting "Other half are just p*ssed off and don't wanna wear a mask/And they're just scoffin'/And that's how you end catchin' the sick off 'em/I just used the same basket as you shoppin'/Now I'm in a f*ckin' casket from you coffin'"

In the US, there has been confusion as President Donald Trump's messaging surround mask wearing has been unclear. It has left many people frustrated, therefore, refusing to wear them.
