Not everyone is feeling the Melle Mel response to Eminem.

Melle Mel and Eminem have been embroiled in a bit of a feud as of late. Overall, it started when the former came out and said some things about Em and his place in hip-hop. These comments were quite controversial but by no means the worst thing that Em has heard. Regardless, Eminem decided to respond on someone else's track. As we reported, Eminem hopped on "Realest," a new song by Ez Mil, one of Em's latest signees. It was here where he dropped scathing bars directed at Mel.

Earlier in the week, the legendary pioneer took to his Instagram and revealed that he was preparing a response to Eminem. As you can imagine, many were interested to see what kind of bars he would come with. Em can be an easy target at times, and there are plenty of avenues to launch a diss. Last night, Melle Mel dropped the diss track which was only 73 seconds in length. You can listen to it below.
