This is the THIRD diss released by Nick Cannon, following, “The Invitation,” and “Pray for Him,”

In it Nick attempts to race-bait Eminem into responding by sampling an old leaked song by Eminem called, “Foolish Pride,” which he made when he was a teenager because he was pissed off at one black girl who wronged him.
