On “King’s Disease III,” he revisits their bitter diss tracks on the song “Thun” where he raps:
“No beef or rivals, they playing ‘Ether’ on TIDAL / Brothers can do anything when they decide to / In a Range Rover, dissecting bars from ‘Takeover’ / Sometimes I text Hova like, ‘N****, this ain’t over … laughing!”
Jay-Z dropped “Takeover” on his 2001 classic album “The Blueprint” and accused Nas of falling off while Nas returned fire with “Ether,” which was an early precursor for pretty much what we know now as dragging someone on social media.
Let’s REVISIT the ‘BEEF’:
Throughout the years, the two would go on to trade more disses on tracks such as “Supa Ugly” and “Last Real N**** Alive” … but they’ve long buried their issues, broke bread together, and even appeared together on DJ Khaled‘s 2021 cut “Sorry Not Sorry.”
MORE ARTISTS can take this as a LESSON on how to GET OVER beefs. Two of the BIGGEST rap GREATS in the GAME came together and can laugh about it now.
If Nicki Minaj and Cardi B took notes, their REUNION would be EPIC FOR THE CULTURE!
The TWO as ALLIES would RULE the RAP GAME! Let’s even go FARTHER BACK than that. If Lil’ Kim and Foxy Brown would DEAD their BEEF, that TOO would be EPIC. But it appears that WOMEN hold GRUDGES far longer than MEN…. MAYBE oneday we’ll see the LADIES truly UNITE as they always RAP ABOUT in their songs….
