Eminem has hit out at Mariah Carey and husband Nick Cannon in his new song The Warning.

It's the latest in a long feud between the pair who first came to blows when Eminem said he had a fling with Mariah back in 2001 and she denied it.

It's been claimed recently that Mariah mocked the rapper in the video for her latest single Obsession.

It comes after Eminem mentioned Mariah in his song Bagpipes From Baghdad, which also talked about her husband Nick.

In May, Nick leapt to his wife's defence and retorted by blogging: "homeboy is still obsessed with my wife".

Eminem raps in his new record: "I got the exact same tattoo that's on Nick's back, I'm obsessed now, oh gee, is that supposed to be me in the video with the goatee?"

He goes a step further and comments that Mariah was "was wild 'n' out before Nick" and says he gave her "somethin' to smile about".

He adds: "You probably think since it's been so long if I had something on you I woulda did it by now, on the contrary, Mary Poppins...

"Mariah, it ever occur to you that I still have pictures?"

"But if I'm embarrassing me, I'm embarrassing you and don't you dare say it isn't true."

In previous weeks, the trio have denied any rift between them.

Mariah and Nick both say that the character in the Obsessed video is not Eminem, while the rapper says that his lyrics in Bagpipes From Baghdad were "misinterpreted".

Mariah married actor and singer Nick in the Bahamas in April 2008, after they met on a music video.

Eminem has been married twice to childhood sweetheart Kimberley Anne Scott and they have a daughter called Hailie.
