NEW YORK, Dec. 6 (UPI) -- Legendary Motown singer Stevie Wonder has criticized Eminem for ridiculing pop star Michael Jackson in his latest video.
Eminem refers to Jackson's plastic surgery and child molestation charges lodged against Jackson in a video for his latest single "Lose It," the BBC reported Monday.
"Kicking someone when he's down is not a good thing," Wonder told Billboard magazine. "I was disappointed that he would let himself go to such a level."
There was no immediate comment from Eminem or his spokespeople. His video also mocks Madonna, Pee Wee Herman and MC Hammer.
"I have much respect for his work, though I don't think he's as good as (late rapper) Tupac (Shakur)," Wonder said, adding that Eminem has "succeeded on the backs of people predominantly in that lower pay bracket, people of color."
