Television actor/rapper Nick Cannon is not letting his past feud with Eminem go out by targeting his hip-hop rival on an upcoming Showtime comedy special.
Weekend reports claim Cannon will mock Em on his May 14th special, "Mr. Showbiz."
"Nick Cannon: Mr Showbiz" will see the knocker and comedian tackle a broad array of topics, from his wedding to Mariah Carey to his rivalry with controversial rapper Eminem.
"In his first ever comedy special, the popular comic actor and musician reveals surprisingly edgy, hysterically honest tales of his failed attempts at being a gangster, his humble roots, marriage, fatherhood, and his thoughts around the rapper Eminem," a voice for the network confirmed through Starpulse.

Cannon's special is reportedly based out of Las Vegas, Nevada.
In an audience with The Hollywood Reporter, Cannon will get a pass to stand-up May 14 at 9pm on cable network Start with the hour-long special Nick Cannon: Mr. Showbiz, which was recorded at the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas. Cannon apparently intends to use the program to let his hair down a bit - and he apparently addresses Slim Shady publicly during his act. (RapFix)
Last summer, Cannon dropped the diss record, "I'm A Slick Rick," accusing Em of avoiding a face-to-face confrontation.
"Now once upon a clock in a far away life," Nick raps using Slick Rick's tone of voice. "There lived a new man who was so outstanding, to attain it interesting it's me, Nick Cannon - Now here's a little something that needs to be heard/Yo I'ma serve this clown, now/Word, Nick?/Word/I don't know if I should hit him because he's feminine Slick, excuse me Eminem why you lying on your d*ck?/Erectile dysfunction, you wanna get 'em up - I see your mouth moving but you soft, Teddy Ruxpin/I tried to roar at you at the BET show, but you were frightened of the trouble/More security than the Pope/And while you was in your bubble, I was rolling dolo, any time your case is in the streets is some signs for promo/Oh no, there's been a mistake, see my list is Slick Nick, not Shady Flakes/I'ma mop you up with my wop like it's '88." ("I'm A Slick Rick")
Em's Shady Records labelmate and D12 group member Bizarre later responded to Cannon.
"I heard it," Bizarre told radio host Angela Yee. "It was absolutely terrible. Terrible. He was stressful to act like he was Slick Rick. He was atrocious and [only] a God awful rapper. But him trying to do a Slick Rick accent was just absolutely horrible.You don't require that one-on-one with Marshall. Nick, you don't need that one-on-one." (Shade 45)
