Reaction to Eminem’s Diss Track
The son of Sud, Knight, responded to the release of Eminem’s diss track, stating that “an honorary person does not kick the defenseless.”
Leaked Track and Allegations
In January, the song “Smack You” was leaked online, recorded by Eminem in the mid-2000s but never released until now. It opens with a 2Pac line, “first bomb first (my second answer),” and includes verses where he alludes to the alleged involvement of Knight’s infamous family in the murders of 2Pac and Biggie Smalls.
Knight is currently serving a 28-year prison sentence in California after he pleaded no contest in 2018 to charges of voluntary manslaughter stemming from a 2015 incident.
Recently, Knight’s son, Suzh J. Knight, launched a counterattack against Eminem on his track “Ocean Krwi,” which features the Polish elite group Kaliska, as well as Gorzki and WWRD. He also alleges that Diddy has information regarding 2Pac’s murder.

Knight stated: “Eminem claims that the song was created in the mid-2000s. It is strange that it has resurfaced now when my father cannot defend himself. It’s also odd that he had many chances to confront my father directly but lacked the courage.”
“An honorable person does not kick the defenseless, so I chose to defend my father’s honor by recording my response within a song that discusses this issue. If Eminem asserts this song was made two decades ago and claims to reveal supposed truths about my father’s connection to the attack on Pac, where is the truth? Will he finally find the courage to admit it?”
“In my song, I mainly focus on the theme of online hatred from anonymous individuals and the rumors surrounding my father’s alleged involvement in 2Pac’s death. They were best friends, and while many can say negative things about my father, he cannot be blamed for Pac’s death. The world will soon learn much more about this attack – I believe Diddy knows a lot and I could provide evidence, but I’ve already mentioned Pac, and I’ll leave it at that. I want to live.”
The younger Knight and Eminem have exchanged words before, with Knight mentioning in 2019 that he chose not to release a diss track because it would be “too disrespectful.”
Meanwhile, Suge Knight Sr. revealed last month that 2Pac was interested in signing Aaliyah, and last year, he called out Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg, and others for their silence following Diddy’s arrest.
