The best one imo, or def the most crazy one is def in quitter when he literally raps: "All right, so this is what we ask our fans, If you ever see Everlast, whoop his ass! Hit him with rocks, bricks, sticks, throw shit at him, Kick him, spit on him, treat him like a hoe, Bitch-slap him! Do it for me, do it for Fred, do it for Limp, do it for rock, do it rap, do it for kid, do it for Ice-T, do it just to do it, fuck it, He's a Bitch, he ain't gon' hit you back he's nothin' " And the like 20 seconds later doing a beat switch at recreating Tupacs" Hit 'em up" with the exact same cadence, flow and rhyme scheme as Pac, spot on, just with different lyrics of course. Like imagine if Kendrick asked his fans to just straight attack Drake if they ever ran into him in one of his songs. Or if any rapper did it for that matter. It would be all over the news nowadays lol.

Having Nicki’s “Stupid Hoe” rank higher than Eazy E’s “Real Mf G’s” and Mobb Deep’s “Drop A Gem On Em” is certainly one of the takes of all time

[@AngeBiampandou]

That's insane. Stupid Hoe is one of the worst diss track of all time. Nicki knows how to sneak diss but she can't make diss tracks

[@dokeshi6255]

@@rainbowkittycat627 it’s classic hip hop and has a bunch of history behind the two tracks. Stupid Hoe is a polarizing song that could be targeted at any female artist and has zero wordplay, it’s just a troll track with no shelf life at all.

[@rainbowkittycat627]

@@dokeshi6255Ig maybe as a diss track, but just musically (i was curious so I listened to the eazy-e track) Stupid hoe is just better. It had tighter bars, a tighter flow, better music, and better production. I’d agree perhaps D is a bit to low, and maybe its better as a diss track, but as a song, nicki’s is much better. Like don’t get me wrong, the vast majority of nicki’s discography is worse, but stupid hoe is leagues above Real Muthaphuckkin’ G’s. It’s just not one of easy-e’s best songs.

Rap Devil over Real mf G’s is actually so stupid

[@paperhats5201]

I can only imagine Fantano saying "She-thang was discriminatory against Trans-Gangsta community", while others have excessive homophobia but they had very good careers, you know :). Lyrically praising Dre's diss while extremely scathing lyrics of "RMG"s is absurd. He talks over Eazy-E's lyricisim but doesn't even know Eazy-E's lyrics in the song were written by Dresta, a true G. The most likely reason he does this is that Dre's diss is his sweetheart especially because of production, which got destroyed by a much low quality. If Dre won purely by production it would make the hiphop scene like he would have dream of, which says a lot about how he actually looks at hiphop.

[@vredeling]

@@paperhats5201 Dre got destroyed by Eazy. Everybody knew it. Dre such a poser. Credits to him as a ex. producer. But no fucking with some real gangsters.

[@thatguyanderson]

@@sirtoby2070 I've seen a few people recently saying Hiss might actually be 100% about Drake. It's not too much of a Stretch considering how he played both sides when she was dealing with the court case (saying he supported her, but then dissing her multiple times on his album with 21 Savage). Not sure i believe it, but it'd honestly be pretty funny if it was true.

Lil B’s F*** Kd track may be being slept on a little bit. It was innovative because he started a beef with someone who has nothing to do with rapping. Then, the Warriors, Lil B’s hometown team as he’s from Berkeley, came back down 3-1 to KD’s Thunder to make the NBA Finals a year after the track. Then, KD came to the bay to join the Warriors and lifted the Lil B curse off of him and he won back-to-back Finals MVPs. When he left, the curse was reinstated and KDs career has been in shambles ever since. I say all that to say, who in rap has ever definitively won a rap beef against an athlete?
