Probably not the right answer on Lemmy but Ford to Marx is pretty damned brutal:

"f you'd saved a penny for each daughter you named Jenny You might not have needed to bury quite so many"

One of my personal top picks is from Wayne Gretzky's second verse when he rap battled against Tony Hawk.

"Time out, let's talk about athletic achievements. You and I have so many world records between us.

184, that's plenty of 'em. AND I'VE SET 183 OF 'EM!"
