Ghostface making it real hot out there for Action Bronson.

Sidebar(s):
The fact Ghostface set up his camera to record this. Teddy Pendergrass playing in the background whilst he recorded this. The squat Ghostface hits when he starts to son Bronson. Ghostface threatening to light up his beard. Wow.

What an idiot.

"I got shooters"... Please.

Ghost is a legend and can't no one take that away from him but in no shape form or fashion is Action a biter.

Ghostface is about it, there's long been internet rumours that he threw 50 Cent down a flight of stairs before 50 was big (listen to the Clyde Smith skit from Supreme Clientele, Ghostface was heated over How To Rob). Also Ghostface was responsible for breaking Mase's jaw once ('Yo I-Cham punched Mase in his face over some bullshit') (Sidebar: When Kanye said 'If you could feel how my face felt, you would know how Mase felt.' he was talking about this incident).

He broke Mase's jaw. I don't think he got it in with 50 back then. 50 rolled deep, if there was an altercation it would have been huge. Plus that was 15 years ago.

Pick on someone your own size Ghost. Make a decent Wu album for once.

Nah Bronson was talking wild slick about Ghost, he could have said loads of other things but Bronson got slick and 'face is 'face what else is he going to do?

Ghostface is wild, I know.

However that comment is one comment in the dozens of times Bronson has complimented Ghostface. It's such a lazy comparison at this point. And what's cool about making a video? That's something I expect J Cole to make, not an idol of mine.

Hopefully they resolve it behind closed doors.

No one in the current generation would even address it, they'd just throw mad subliminals because that's what Jay-Z does.

It's already been resolved, Bronson copped pleas ASAP:
 


Dej Loaf flipped an old footwork song (DJ Cleft 'Back Up Off Me') and it's pretty cool. Always find it interesting how supposedly inferior rappers flip random songs in a cool modern way (see Future 'Freak Hoes' and TRU 'Freak Hoes' and also Migos loosely remaking Raheem The Dream 'Freak No More' for their own 'Freak No More').

I was just searching the other day to see if they'd dropped anything recently. They got an album in the pipeline?

Royce is too good.

Yeah, that song only missed Royce's verse.

This is from the Southpaw movie soundtrack. Their next studio album 'Glass House' is probably dropping this year.

He just being uber respectful. Nothing about copping pleas.

Wasn't very respectful on ESPN though was he?

Honestly not bothered the beef or lack of, it was just hilarious to see the lengths Ghostface went to record that.
 
Ghost is a god mc but let's keep it real, Bronson was right -"he really isn't rapping like that no more" and the whole video thing is corny, he is a 45 year old man (legend in the rap game) talking about "shooters" like he is 28 with a point to prove...stop it.

I dont even feck with Bronson, he has the flow but the delivery is meh and his subject matter isn't exactly my cup of tea,i still respect him as an MC and it has taken him 4 years(after constantly giving him props) to take a jab at GFK(i actually expected him to do it sooner) - its hip hop, Ghost should have responded on a track not on a fecking video - he was pretty rusty on SS imo and this would have been the perfect opportunity to put a dent on Bronson's career.

"Keep my name out your mouth" these dudes that claim hip hop has gone "soft" are always the first to be in their feelings when a young blood takes a shot at them, of course people are going to ask him about you, he fecking sounds like you.....leave the corny videos for Curtis Jackson.
 
Meek Mill is real i'll give him that, Drizzy was due for a major L in the rap game, that "who do ya love" verse he stole didnt really do any damage - this (if true) is probably going to ruin his legacy.

Not going to stop me from listening to Drake however, it's just music at the end of the day and delivery is also very important.
 
Wouldn't surprise me if he wrote lyrics for his own albums but had ghostwritten ones for other people's songs, particularly ones that weren't going to get him on the radio. There's a Drake verse on almost every album out nowadays, some of them he has to take the lazy way out and just cash in a cheque. There's a few rappers I hear on features that make me think straight away that they didn't write the verses.

Unthinkable - Alicia Keys
Fall for your type - Jamie foxx
Aston Martin music - Rick Ross
 
Drake wore "Free Meek Mill" shirts while on tour and Meek was locked up.

Meek also refused to tweet in support of Wale when his album dropped.

And Meek is the opening act for his girlfriends tour, hardly on Drake's level.

So much contradiction. I can't stand Meek at all.

I heard the rumors, but come on man. Nas wrote Illmatic. Illmatic. The feck does he need a ghostwriter for?

Also wrote Nastradamus, I have no problem with rappers having ghostwriters - Consequence and Rhymefest wrote for Kanye, Hov wrote "still dre" for Dre (Dr Dre doesn't write his own songs), Game basically dropped GRODT 2 as his debut album etc.

Nas dismissed the claims a few years ago on big boy's radio show so they are false for the most part.

Should have known such blasphemous claims about the god would be false.

It's a huge, HUGE claim in hiphop. Dr. Dre and Kanye are primarily producers... no one is placing them on a list of the greatest lyricists ever. Puffy said he wrote checks, not rhymes. They make great music anyways, so cool.

I guess back in the day when "keeping it real" was the main theme, passing someone else's lyrics as yours was taboo. Nas is one of the greatest poets to come from hiphop. It would be a tragedy if it was discovered that he didn't write his lyrics.

But like you said he denied it, and there's no proof, so all is well for now.

I don't either. He got some nice sales but all in all he's just another in a long line trying to throw shade Drake's way.
 
Fully grown men don't need to be acting like this. Both Ghostface and Meek need to relax, they're f*cking millionaires.
 
For real though I think Meek could outrap Drake in a battle, Meek is from the streets and that is a monumental advantage over whatever Drake can muster (maybe some cute lines about Nicki but that's it). Need Meek to channel his inner Beanie Sigel and stop with the tweets. Also shout out to Meek for calling out Drake because he has to be real even though his boss' entire life story is a complete fabrication.
 
'Calling Drake out'
implying that Drake actually has ghostwriters

Reread what I said, Meek has no moral high ground to be calling out rappers for being fake (as he put it) when his boss is Rick fecking Ross. And it's hardly been refuted so far has it? Said ghostwriter is in Drake's latest album's credits.
