Nick Cannon Challenges Eminem to $100,000 Rap Battle

If Eminem's looking to make a quick stack of cash, he could stop selling bricks from his childhood home and instead take on a challenge from TV host/comedian/Mariah Carey baby daddy Nick Cannon.

In a new interview with Tim Westwood, Cannon explained that he's still dying to throw down with Eminem, and he'll put $100,000 USD on the line for the winner.

The pair have had an on-again, off-again feud since 2009, when Carey released a song called "Obsessed" about Eminem's apparent obsession with her. He bounced back with a single called "Warning Shot." Cannon tried to get in on the action then, but Eminem has never given him the time of day. Maybe 100k is all it will take to get Eminem talking.

"I'm still ready! I'm trying to find him. Where is he?" Cannon said of his potential Eminem battle.

Hardly a rap god of Eminem's stature, Cannon's not entirely off base. After all, when he's not hosting America's Got Talent or Wild 'N Out, he has been known to spit a verse or two. Still, we can only imagine how badly Eminem would tear him apart.

Regardless, Cannon said he's actually willing to battle anyone who's willing to drop the hefty put that much money on the line. "We gonna be out in the States for the BET Awards," he said. "I'm holding a $100,000 battle — whoever wants it —but it has to be someone who can put up 100 grand… I done reached out to Tyga, he didn't want it. I went to all Slaughterhouse. I did it like Mortal Kombat. I said I'll take all of them out to get to the boss."
