Detroit, Michigan rapper Eminem drew criticism from many on social media due to what some deemed an expletive-filled performance at The Concert For Valor in Washington D.C. earlier this week.

According to XXLMag.com, Em opened his performance by proclaiming “happy mothafuckin Veterans Day” and then proceeded to throw out the word “fuck” numerous times.

During his performance, which was free to the public and streamed live on HBO, Eminem was joined by singer Rihanna.
