Re: Official Hip Hop/Rap Music Thread
Hip Hop Beefs(strictly on wax, not your Biggies and Tupacs) are "dead" because you have artists who think they are too big or too good to get involved in them. And also alot of times, they usually bring out the best in Rappers and that is what people want to hear, right?
I always hear people bring up the money aspect as if it's going to stop dudes nowadays from making money because they're involved in a beef. The only 'big name' rapper that lost money and never was the same again is Ja Rule but even he's the lone exception to this, not the rule.
If anything this is more ammo for Pusha to use because now he can just say "You let the Jew White DJ(paraphrasing here)chase you out cuz of your squad's wack *** song!!"
And then he proceeds to play the track which is 3-4 minutes long but takes 30 minutes to actually listen to the entire song.
Everyone involved came off as unprofessional.
I will say it again. Hip Hop beef is
these days. Too much money involved for anyone involved to beef with each other. That goes for both radio stations and artists.
Oh, and Wayne co headlined Summer Jam with Rick Ross just last year. I don't think the station and him had any ill will toward each other. Maybe he thought the station was setting Nicki and YMCMB up to truly be dissed later on by Pusha T. So he pulled his artists just in case. Which turned out to be a bad business move. Now everyone is copping pleas to correct the situation.
