And I think this is more comparable to how 50 came at Ja Rule with this being a homeless man's Clap Back. I still have no idea how he let Drake become the aggressor...


That's not a bad comparison. Maybe Em vs Canibus, where Em went light, then dedicated a track and by the time Bis hit him with serious bars nobody cared so the quality stopped mattering.

Hopefully for his sake it's a continuation of the last one. Because I was starting to vibe with it after the Diddy line but, it abruptly ended after the 50 Ja line. I still think Drake is going to host that funeral at OVO Fest this weekend.

Drake feat. AR-AB would end this thing real quick if it hasn't already ended.

Seems like Meek has no chance to recover and even though Drake didn't drop an Ether level diss, the impact is probably similar to Ether and Nail in the Coffin in terms of everyone saying a rapper who picked the fight has been bodied.

I dont think it falls anywhere. Its uncharted waters. Really because it started a freaking twitter. Over not doing a tweet to promote an album.

Also, I cant recall a time where someone started a rap beef, and could not and almost didnt finish it.

MAYBE,... you could bring up big dropping pac's name in brooklyns finest. And beating around the bush on who shot ya. Only to have Pac drop hitem up, ... then never really officially respond or address it. Obviously drake didnt do a hitem up, but thats as close as I could think.

Or maybe when Nas and Stout decided to drop mega from the firm for nature. Then mega and his people beat up stout and nature BEFORE putting out the diss track. That dont really fit but its an example of ones actions starting a rap beef that led to a song that couldnt really be topped.

In those examples you would have to substitute actual real life interactions with social media,... and I just cant do that.

The way this is ending I can come up with a similar situation though. No one really thought LL could top 2nd round knock out. He drops the ripper strikes back on a def jam promo tape. And while the song wasnt really as nasty as 2nd round knock out. Cool J left canibus in a position where he really could not get back at him.

But canibus never let it go. He kept on trying and trying and even dropped an entire album named after a attempted response. He looked stupid. He took heavy criticism. All his albums flopped and the rest is history.

Meek got 4 more tracks supposedly. The hype is dead. Screw this "beef" for entertainment crap. I'm just waiting to see Ghostface gut Bronson at this point.

:lol: Meek salty as hell. I guess the thought "exposing" Drake meant he could win the rap beef without actually having to rap.

:lol: :lol: :lol: It's true man, social media culture has changed real world issues into trolling altercations. I mentioned Canibus vs Em as a similar example where by the time he tried to come back it was too late, but that LL joint has the GOAT hook in a battle track imo "Can I Bus'? Yes you can" simple but hitting hard. Canibus went from everyone's favorite underground lyrical emcee to getting bodied every time he picked a fight. I definitely could see Meek in a similar situation, I can't imagine how he'd recover from this. I can picture a lot of emcees getting hungry again after this one (like when the Control verse dropped), hopefully it gets emcees to stop playing nice and focusing solely on subliminals.

DJ Akademiks made a pretty solid point in his rants. Meek played his hand too soon. The reference tracks shouldn't have come out until the actual diss record did.

Besides the wait he killed himself by giving away his ammo early and basically rehashed the same thing over a beat. Drake might be a tough target in general so if you have something that damaging why waste it.

Yep. Also make sure you have more than hooks... Jay didn't pre-release the Prodigy pics it came with The Takeover. When 50 released the Rick Ross pics it came with the Officer Ricky song. When 50 released the tape of Buck crying it came with a song too. You gotta press dudes...

It does not matter what ammo meek has...at this point he has not proved he can out rap Drake. This is why is such a big L for meek and kinda hip hop. We are at the point in Hip Hop history where a person from a drake background plus his demeanor, beat down a inner city street cat. Meek Let down the **** streets man. This **** is disgusting. What Hurt him in all of this me...is that he is with Nicki. Its very true...some women Destroy your thunder. Meek is to soft and to gassed right now. He knows better than this. He actually is the one with battle background, NOT Drake. Meek is a simp now on the low...damn homie...Before you was with Nicki you was the man Homie...WTF happened to you.

I remember this one beef back in 1992. PM Dawn had said something in a magazine about KRS-One. About being a hypocrite or something, I cant remember exactly what was said.

Well there was this show where PM Dawn, Black Sheep and Ice Cude was performing. BDP and half the Bronx show up. KRS jumps on the stage. Punches big dude in the back of the head. Takes the mike and throws him off the stage. Ice Cube takes off running. KRS goes into im still number one. Basically rushed dudes show, smacks him around, threw off the stage and took over the joint.

For what ever reason, Ice Cube later on decides to call KRS a hypocrite too. X-Clan, (and later das efx) decide to chime in.

Its a well known fact you dont **** with KRS. He'll beat you on stage, on wax and in the flesh.

With all this building animosity towards BDP,... they decide to drop the sex and violence album. Kind of a sarcastic response to the hypocrite claims. This album was not a radio album to say the least. On that album was a song named "we in there". It's in my opinion one of the most viscous personal character attacks ever recorded. Its a reference to the show ice cube ran from him.

[youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2IWGkqYb-k[/youtube]

Later he did a true free style remix where he bit Das EFX's style and just ripped em up.

Ice Cube never responded.
