What are your guys top 3 diss tracks of all time?
Hit 'em Up, Brooklyn's Finest, The Ripper Strikes Back, and, even if you never heard of this beef, check out, "Assisted Suicide" by Snak The Rapper. He tears Madchild a new ass. Perfect diss track.
Dj Hed looking directly into the camera and smiling nearly every time he says west coast this ep is pure comedy… Victory lap fr
Who in charge of wardrobe? 😤
1. No Vaseline – 🧊 cube 2. 💵 & sence – quick 3. Hit’um up – tupac 4. Real mf’in g’s – R.I.P 😇🙏🏾🌹🕊️ EAZY MF’N – E. 🤘🏾👌🏾 🚩.
Tired of the narrative that US as Black MEN have to be at odds with each other. Fuck a diss song and any “Brother” perpetuating THEIR plans for US!!
Metro the best producer over the past decade
Let’s not forget that Hov was Elliot’s first Drake
I definitely didn't expect this.
The flyest part about this whole beef… Kendrick going right back into lowkey mode😂. Popped out just to start some ish and was like Ight back to chillin
Where is Part 1?
Not Like Us
Euphoria
Story of Addidon
Elliot’s thirst for drakes attention is pathetic.
Ice Cube “No Vaseline” over everything! I’m 51 and remember when it dropped. Ain’t nothing touching it!
This is so freaking vapid, grown ass, rich as fuck men acting like poor little kids, and other men having a roundtable about them….this is the lamest aspect of our culture.
I need them shades Elliott got on
A good diss track not many will know is pastor troy – no mo play in ga. If you know, you know.
If ppl were protecting Diddy's image all of these years, I'm sure Drake is also being protected. If Drake is a PDF File that needs to be addressed. Stop protecting celebrities when they do wrong.
I was just saying that they cant just do one of these lol
@28:00 word is, Cole stepped away from the battle bcuz Drake wnated him to change his verse after Kdot said "fvk the big 3". 👀
It's the greatest battle not only because of good content but becoz the internet enabled us all to see it in real time.
Dj ChopSquad needs more recognition when speaking on this new generation of artists and for the drill movement…..
I hate how people not realising Drakes whole move to push J Cole up to #1 was a strategic move and not out of love.. Drake used J Cole so that when the day came to destroy Kendrick it would be an easy assassination… But J Cole was never that guy which is why I commended J Cole when he stepped back because J Cole in my opinion is the new Common or Black Thought… He is not occupied by all the coonery and buffoonery like Drake! J Cole never had to prove himself.. He is just nice! Drake on the other hand has a lot of disturbing truths he has to deal with and when he looks at J Cole and Kendrick without a doubt he is jealous at the peace they have inside… Drake ia in constant battle with his demons because he is not living an authentic life! Drake is literally Malibu Most Wanted in Black Face… Drake could of easily continued living his life making hits and living the Canadian life … not addressing any other rapper but he is conflicted and envious of the kind of peace Dot and Cole have. There was no winner! Just an expose'… Kendrick has the whole world singing Drake is a PDF… Truth or lie, that's so bad!!!!! Bad on so many levels!!! The future will reveal the unfortunate truth!
It's bcuz hip hop is the biggest most popular so it's gonna get more coverage than any other group of individuals who maybe in country ,rock music…..
Questlove weak as fvk wit dat cap azz take 🤨😑
Cool episode. 3K views tho? On a 2.5 million subscribed base platform? Do better… least with Hed’s insight into new music
Ether
Ether is a way better record than takeover youre cray
Also why is last real nigga alive not mentioned in diss records. To me that was the real nail in the coffin. A complete truthful recap of how and why it went down and the difference in psyche between Jay and Nas. Don’t confuse popularity and greatness with each other. It’s the same thing Drake did with Kenny and he got his ass waxed. Did he not learn anything from HOV?
