Eminem CD won’t be in magazine

A court ruling has stopped hip-hop magazine the Source from distributing a disc of a previously unreleased recording by Eminem that includes phrases such as “black girls are dumb.”

Manhattan federal Judge Gerald Lynch granted the rapper’s lawyers an injunction preventing the magazine from enclosing the CD in its February issue, which goes on sale in mid-January. The Source had gone public with the contents of the CD last month, but Eminem’s lawyers argued that distributing the disc itself violates copyright laws.

The 31-year-old rapper has said the decade-old recording was “foolishness” that he’d made as a teen “out of anger, stupidity and frustration” after breaking up with a girlfriend who was African American.
