To promote the album, Fat Joe billed his Eminem collaboration as "the most disrespectful song".[1] In his verse, Eminem disses Nick Cannon and Mariah Carey, rapping: "I know me and Mariah didn't end on a high note / But that other dude's whipped, that pussy got him neutered / Tried to tell him this chick's a nut job before he got his jewels clipped / Almost got my caboose kicked, fool, quit, you not gon' do shit / I let her chop my balls off, too 'fore I lost to you, Nick".[2][3] On December 9, 2019, Cannon responded with a diss track "The Invitation"[4] featuring Hitman Holla, Charlie Clips and Prince Eazy, whom Cannon referred to as "The Black Squad" and Suge Knight.[5] After Eminem responded to Cannon with two tweets, Cannon released a second diss track the next day featuring the same rappers as well as Conceited titled "Pray For Him".[6]
