EMINEM - EMINEM PENS PEACE-MAKING TRACK

EMINEM has written a track to pacify his rap enemies because he's petrified his famously outspoken lyrics will result in his own murder.

The STAN star is anxious about his high-profile feuds with hip-hop stars including JA RULE, so he penned LIKE TOY SOLDIERS - featured on his latest album ENCORE - which he hopes will calm his opponents before they resort to violence.

He explains, "When I say 'toy soldiers', the phrase, it's symbolic of all of us in the rap game just being pawns almost, it feels like.

"A lot of times when rappers have beef, their sales incline. So meanwhile, big record labels and heads of record labels, they benefit off this.

"Usually, nine times out of ten, somebody out of somebody's entourage meets up with someone from somebody else's entourage. Usually, the innocent people that really ain't got much to do with it - besides affiliation - end up getting hurt or killed.

"So (the song) was, metaphorically speaking, my way of saying, 'Before this goes any further, I'm done with it.'"
