Click the Link above to Download Track Free!! Whoa! Could this be the first time a diva trumps a rapper in a hip-hop beef? Mariah Carey throws some elbows on her new single “Obsessed” – the first track from her upcoming “Memoirs of an Imperfect Angel” (Island) due out Aug. 25, which debuted on radio this afternoon – and they’re all landing on her tormentor Eminem “Why you so obsessed with me? Lying that you’re sexing me?” the Greenlawn native sings in the chorus, before delivering the kiss-off “You’re delusional. Boy, you’re losing your mind.” Despite the harsh words – tossing around digs like “You’re a mom-and-pop, I’m a corporation” and referring to his “Napoleon complex” – Carey plays it cool on the track that she co-wrote with The-Dream and Tricky Stewart. She coos confidently, riding the laid-back beat, probably holding back the laughs as she insults again. It plays far smoother than her husband Nick Cannon’s fiery response last month to Eminem’s “Bagpipes from Baghdad,” where Eminem raps about taking Carey back from him and then calls her a “[expletive] whore.” Of course, the Mariah-Eminem flak goes back for years, after he claimed they were in a six-month relationship, which Carey denies. “Your legacy has now been tainted from this day forth!” Cannon wrote (and then retracted) on his blog. “You will now be known as the rapper who lost to corny-ass Nick Cannon!” But “Obsessed” seems to go even farther. Eminem was torn down by Mariah herself. Right now, it's MC: 1, EM 0. Press Play Button to Listen or Download Now Free!!
