In a rather lengthy post on his personal blog, Nick Cannon ranted on and on about Eminem in response to the Detroit rapper’s diss to him and Mariah Carey in the new song, “Bagpipes from Baghdad.” Cannon’s blog entry generated a lot of buzz in the media, saying that he wanted to meet Eminem face-to-face and handle the situation like men. Nick has since taken the post down, saying that the thousands of comments in response to the post coupled with the onslaught of new traffic almost crashed his site.

Rapper Eminem can breathe easy knowing that the hip-hop industry in general has welcomed him back to the scene with open arms. His latest album, Relapse, currently holds the spot as the number one album in the country, with 608,000 units moved in its first week, also setting a record as the biggest sales week of the year for any album.

This also marks Em’s fifth straight number one debut and fifth overall number one out of six total albums. His debut album, Slim Shady LP, bowed and peaked at number two 10 years ago in 1999.
