Former employees of S&S Activewear say explicit music played at a Reno, Nevada, warehouse, including songs by Eminem, produced a hostile and abusive work environment.

This included an Eminem song about a pregnant woman being put into a car trunk and subsequently"driven into water to be drowned," according to the lawsuit.
