Eminem has come under fire for glorifying rape in a new song for the movie Straight Outta Compton.

The 42-year-old father-of-three screams, 'I even make the b****es I rape c*m,' in a rap solo on Dr Dre's song Medicine Man.

The line has prompted a wave of backlash from anti-violence groups and among Twitter users after the movie's release this week.

The rapper (pictured at the height of his fame in the 2000's with Dr Dre) has said 'I made my monopoly off misogyny'. His 20-year career has included a plethora of songs with lyrics about degrading women

'How is eminem still making rape jokes in his verse though? You're like my parents age, please grow up,' wrote one teenage Twitter user.

One said: 'Eminem really almost the age where you gotta start getting your prostrate checked & he's still unnecessarily rapping about rape'

Another said: 'That Eminem verse came way to late in the album. By that point, the nostalgia had worn off, and i was in no mood for rape puns.'

And one wrote: 'Oh so more Eminem lyrics glorifying rape, time to grow up dude.'

Straight Outta Compton is a biopic of the rap collective the NWA, of which Dr Dre was a member. Eminem was not; he was a member of the hip hop group D-12 before going solo.

Karen Ingala Smith, chief executive of anti-rape group The Nia Project, told The Guardian such language misconstrues the meaning of consent.

'Women and girls who have suffered sexual violence often blame themselves or question whether they were really raped,' she told the paper.

'Peddling the lie that orgasm equals consent silences victims of sexual violence.'

Eminem, whose real name is Marshall Mathers, is not known for his family-friendly lyrics.

Many of his songs include homophobic and misogynistic lyrics.

And last week, he performed a freestyle rap on the radio show Sway In The Morning that agreed: 'I made monopoly off misogyny.'

He continued: 'No wonder you scoff at me, it’s obvious I’m as off-putting as Bill Cosby is / Treat women like property, possessive like a noun with an apostrophe.'

The rap also took aim at Caitlyn Jenner: 'I invented prick, and that’s a true statement, I see the d*** in you, Caitlyn / Keep the pistol tucked like Bruce Jenner’s d***.

'No disrespect though, not at all, no pun intended, that took a lot of balls.'
