Hopsin Breaks Silence On SwizZz’s “Automatic” Diss Track

HipHopDX goes behind the scenes of Hop’s “Die This Way” video.

[@dantelan-i-er5466]

Yeah, people rarely listen to an album from start to finish anymore. All they want is singles, which leaves a lot of tracks getting slept on.

[@coreyriley2468]

very true

[@jesusrascon2590]

But it doesn't help certain artists put out an album with 3 good songs scattered through with a bunch of bullshit filler songs in between

[@TypicalHypeBeast]

Not me when I listen it's from first song to last no skipping

[@PizzaDwight]

+Jesus Rascon *coughfuturecough*

[@dantelan-i-er5466]

That's true too. With most of the artists I listen though, that is not a problem

[@KabishiVSKa]

I admire how respectful he is.

[@allansylvester4813]

Kabishi same

[@stevetheguy6604]

Definitely happy to see him take the high road on that. Those two were like the dynamic duo, and I really didn't want to see them at each others throats. I agree completely with what Hop said. It WASN'T really a dis, it was his opinion and how he felt about what happened. I'm glad that Hop saw that. That said, I hope that one day they can hash it out, and then we can see another Hopsin and SwizZz collaboration, because those two together were straight fire.

[@prestonransom8427]

although it would be an epic rap battle between hop and SwizZz. they both got dope ass lyrics and are amazing rappers. also if jarren benton joined the battle too it would be an epic battle the 3 best attackers on the label

[@Gr33nPhoenix]

+preston ransom when they had a little back and forth with horseshoe gang.. Dizzy had the best verse by far...

[@prestonransom8427]

Yes dizzy wright's was the hardest. but dizzy isn't the type of person to be able to bounce right back with something like hop SwizZz and jarren can

+Gr33nPhoenix "I hate a bitch nigga that will settle for a happy meal."

[@JagsCustoms206]

Well said Stephen Robinson, I agree.

[@s0lgewds0lgewd16]

They were friends who started a business together and worked side by side, and for a second after hop answered the question he looked down and stopped smiling until he made eye contact with the camera again. I think it did hurt hop losing swizzz as a friend to keep it 100

[@kunknown2340]

Yeah, he didn't mention swizzz much and actively tried to avoid speaking about him during the dame vs hopsin podcast. Hurt for sure.

[@artymunoz5060]

Losing a friend always sucks. They were hella close

[@brendancornish2362]

of course swizz took his brothers side, and as for the title of this video there was like 5 seconds of hop talking about it

[@MrBryan90]

Yup click bait

[@msidleon4701]

still a good interview tho

[@eugenemcleod2023]

+Durrelle Bryan click bait is when the title has nothing to do with the video.

[@BruhHowDidIGetHere]

SwizZz actually made a song, I guess that's better than nothing, seeing how he never released anything in general.

[@dgreatll]

the zZz on his name makes so much sense now

[@athomerecordschannel]

I liked how he handled the situation when asked about SwizZz. It is a much more mature and thought out approach then a few months ago when he was ranting with emotion and a hard heart. He wasn't getting anything across with the "He said I was lazy" in every interview. He is also learning the business side. He is gaining knowledge on how to release independent music. Dame handled all of the releases. I wish someone would ask him how it is do do that part now. How it feels to have the shoe on the other foot? Journalist don't get deep anymore.

[@chaddthebadd]

great point sir

[@jarviselmerhath7769]

hopsin is a big baby, lol. I can't wait until he goes away

[@TheUndiscribables865]

You cam tell hopsin is a good dude by the way he carries himself. Even when being dissed he doesnt say anything disrespectful. You don't see that often

[@AlltooSerrious]

by "music studio in anahiem" she meant fucking jail? LOL

[@praynmom]

The jail and hospital scenes were shot in a recording studio in Anaheim.

[@AlltooSerrious]

Margaret Newborn i think, it's difficult to tell when people are trolling some times sorry for the confusion.

[@praynmom]

+AlltooSerrious -My bad. By the way... How did I do as Hopsin's mom in the video? *Not trolling. :-)

[@onedeep8065]

+Margaret Newborn Great Job 👍👍👍 the video actually made me like the song more

[@MawsYT]

+Margaret Newborn you did a great job!

[@jr.arevalo2009]

look at how he bows his head at the end after talking about swizZz like he's thinking "fuck I lost my friends because of this"

[@DragonRumber]

yeah man noticed

[@erwen702]

His ego is what's gonna fuck him up! He's talented as hell but his ego is crazy!

[@bornrazed2970]

+erwen702 if you actually check Ill mind 8, you'll realize he was being screwed.

[@MaSsiVeGaming1]

He said he started to earn less...so he was probably getting ripped off in FV. Hop was the main draw of FV, look the attention he got and exposure he gave them. The dude made the right choice going solo

[@presidentawol7504]

not only his friend, but is comrade, the one who started out with him, sadly they are on two diffrent paths and i do hope they make up, they were the next bad meets evil duo

[@Dreezy43]

Glad you guys got some coverage of the story, keep up the great work

[@laceyarmbruster7250]

your tunes change lives. our generation needs you. thanks for not filtering your brain. you are genius. not having a label over you paints a REAL picture on everything you put out there! you're on the right track so keep up the good work, and keep makin me some sick ass tunes man!! -L. Armbruster Smalltown Oklahoma

[@40Sec]

Hopsin takes the high road regarding SwizZz, but many of his fans reach for the bottom of the barrel with these comments.

[@MotardSteve]

Go search Hopsin - All Your Fault for the real answer

[@Superboy8545]

MotardSteve Hop ripped him apart man.. Listen up lil nigga! That's some boss shit lol

[@Superboy8545]

RPGMaster Crazy shit man. Song is amazing too, loved it.

[@davidstorm9481]

Hop does whatever keeps him buzzing. They are both right from different perspectives. They should have went in on each other a few times to make it give them both a little more hype. Then shook hands and walked away in the end. By how hop normally operates, that might have been his intentions with all your fault. He always thinks in terms of business. And swizzz isn't stupid himself. Thats why he went at hop respectfully, to get the buzz without the backlash.

[@davidgreer2363]

Class, this is why I love this guy. Keep doing your thing man, we're with you all the way

[@NoName-fm2cy]

The smile on his face the whole time.😂 and how he talks to the interviewer rather than the camera.👌

[@lbrappervela6215]

He was bout to cry at 2:33 it really got to him lol

[@TheThrownOutSofa]

I like seeing hop with a smile, glad he's having fun

[@TrVlogs82]

Dope man. Love this dude.

[@Themadscientist1969]

Actually love both of you as Artists, sad to see such a split up of brilliance... But made me happy to see you go the "High Road" in being Humble v.s beefin... :) "artistry is just that--artistry, though some have different visions of it.. That what makes the world "colorful" in the sense that things aren't always same old same old... Best wishes for both of you in the biz!

[@Wambamthankyoumaam]

Still rockin hard with all the artists of FV. It's awesome that we are in a time where they're all releasing new stuff almost daily.

[@collinlankford7943]

Seen hopsin in a show in montreal and I was like.. Damn, this guy is so sick Live wish I could have seen the full crew in action before it ends... I'll miss FV! like badly...

[@julebarlow]

[@BruhLuuhTheArtist]

Love his grind.

[@traxamilli]

Hopsin always humble! Even when he get's dissed. Takes a man to turn the other cheek..

[@jyshawnwalker1054]

its great you decided to take and make your own lane. you can't let someone drag you down because of what everyone one else lacks to see or hear. half of the shit you constitute most people won't believe anyway because of the simple fact that we think different. but good luck holding and glad to see that your smiling again

[@legionAKAalbert]

keep keeping it real.

[@Zempetic]

Love you hop!

[@keithjones7922]

yeah I'm glad hop is doing his own thing he seems more comfortable

Hops the man!!!! glad he's doing the right thing

[@JZillaGamin]

Hopsin's damn pinky while holding the mic, DAAAAAAMN!

[@getduhleted-]

that's what I figured too, that it was just his opinion on the matter. I'm a fan of both, I liked both there music. shame it had to go down this way. I was wanting to hear a haywire 2 album.

[@kiddrizzl3]

hopsin you're a smart man, I salute you.

[@CristianCastillo-jh3tr]

lmaoooooo looking at this video after listening to All Your Fault is so funny.

Hi guys, what's the tittle of the instrumental on the background of this video? Thanks in advance.

Let's just hope all 4 of them get together again at some point. At least one more time.

[@liljoe62799]

[@brucenatelee]

No whack artists from Funk Volume, imo. Whether it's their flow, lyrical content, delivery, whatever, each or any combinations. They were one of my favorite labels next to Strange Music. Sad to see it gone.

[@AvennGed1]

I would really love an album though. I love getting that disc in my car and JAMMIN! I cant afford a car with a aux lol

[@EagleZtoTheGrave]

respect

[@ethanbojorquez1724]

as expected swizzz took his brothers side but I'm happy hop is doing better. only wish hop and swizzz would have stayed together because when they first started getting noticed it was like the good and bad they were almost like opposites but complemented eachother so well when it came to making music

[@flyboy513]

noone even listens to Swizz forreal. only time they did is when it was hops song or when hop was featured

[@Brianpeckin]

Bullshit I like swizzz that best actually he was the most lyrically gifted, but he always wanted to be in the back.

[@OfficialNWS]

Sub-Zero Productions You're*

[@OfficialNWS]

"Always wanted to be in the back." Hahahaha. No. I'm sure more likely it was Hop and Dame (probably mostly Dame) not thinking he was very marketable. The dude never even dropped an album during the entirety of Funk Volume. That's gotta tell you something. Either he was too lazy when it came to making music, or they didn't allocate resources toward him, instead focusing on Hopsin, Dizzy Wright, and Jarren Benton.

[@Brianpeckin]

Ciggy Bones he hasn't dropped an album. Because he wanted to be in the back dumbass. In fact hopsin talked about it as well as swizzz, swizzz like doing production as well as other things. God you're a fucking moron, and obviously not fan of hopsin or you would of watched that interview stupid fuck.

[@Brianpeckin]

Swizzz even said he preferred collaboration, funny thing is he's probably the most talented lyrically.

[@eldridgemartin7305]

wow that's awesome

[@bobbyheath8605]

I'm pretty sure if he would've dissed sizzz it would've ended that boi swizzz career

[@johnringolll4517]

Full interview

[@JeremyCuddles]

Of course he said what he said about Swizzz. It wasn't even really a diss track. It was really just him stating what he thought and where he stood on the split. Swizzz called him corny but otherwise nothing really major was said about Hop personally.

[@yungeen2277]

Bruh I really wanted Hop to diss back

[@apollo4772]

he ain't gonna drop an album cus he got to much pride to let anyone produce or even engineer

[@leksmyk7379]

you know what that was a dope shit from hopsin ,,,his ill mind was like oh meen this is real anyway i like his song coz it makes sense

[@siremet1009]

Is it me or does Hop look like he can be The Game's younger brother? The fact that this guy still smiles after everything he's been through in the industry, speaks volumes. Salut

[@stebmonroy728]

The way I see it Hop is going some what towards music nowadays .. SwizZz is finding him self and he needs to continue dropping dope music like he is.

[@aeneasremotemixing7381]

he handled his self well like that

[@thomasgarrison7104]

hop keeping it real 😈😈

[@JamieMadrox1210]

As much as I'd love to see the drama stir up like some Ice cube vs NWA type shit and have hop do a diss back going all out, I think him being the bigger man in the situation and not even responding Is a way harder "diss" (for lack of a better word) to swizzle then a track would ever do

[@funmun5710]

true

[@tdogg56132]

+WARNING SHARP Exactly what I'm saying

[@TheWMDR]

Hop isn't worried about SwizZz he knows he's a nobody and hasn't ever been relevant let alone drop an album so why would he worry about some diss from some nobody?

[@JamieMadrox1210]

J Brooks I kinda thought the same thing. Funk volume has the best passed 3 years ever and swiZzZ was never apart of it, it looks like he's finally gonna drop and album after 6 years of funk volume and he finally gets out an album after funk volume is done with

[@TheWMDR]

+Antwon Mianus i honestly never cared for SwizZz his voice is very annoying and he ain't nothing special really, i fuck with Hop, Jarren and Dizzy even after the break up, but SwizZz was the only one i didn't really care for.

[@user-jp4ci5ny3v]

Hopsin, you are not underground. And yes albums do benifit artist alot. Look where RAW took you

[@P0RZLE]

He knows more about rap than you

[@SupahKamiGuru]

Even though everyone liked RAW, that wasn't what created his buzz. It was his music video for "Sag My Pants" after that single dropped, that was when he picked up enough traction for RAW to do well. His albums usually don't sell that well, his first week sales for Knock Madness were around 4k and it took a year and a half for it to get up to the 50k mark. Meanwhile his single "Ill Mind 5" went certified Gold selling over 500k Copies. People are more willing to buy singles than albums. When it comes to underground artist, they don't have the big label backing them to promote their albums with advertisement or radio play so it's not getting shown or sampled to the common people.

[@user-jp4ci5ny3v]

+SupahKamiGuru What other rappers do you listen to other than Hopsin?

[@SupahKamiGuru]

Of course he sided with family. I'm a Swizzz fan and an Italian. In my family you stick by your family, even if one of them fucks up. We didn't need a split. I wish Hop didn't make a single on it. He knew what was up, he didn't have to go after Swizzz. But it is cool Hop knew ahead of time that Hop knew that Swizzz had to take his bros side and could n't be upset about that. At least he understood.
