Rapper Jadakiss
has struck back at his new rival 50 Cent on a recently released track that has
hit the internet.
The record is already
being played on national radio airwaves in the United States. The dis track
is Jadakiss’ response to 50 Cent’s dis record Piggy
Back, which took shots at Jada, Fat Joe, Nas and others.
50 Cent reasoned
that both Jadakiss and Fat Joe were in his cross-hairs because of “New
York, New York,” the hit song they recorded with his rival, The Inc.’s
Ja Rule.
"I had beef with an old head, he been around forever and everyone know
who he is," 50 Cent recently told AllHipHop.com, in apparent reference
to a feud with Kenneth "Supreme" McGriff. "That is beef. Because
of the extent our beef, we are married until death do us part. And if they [Jadakiss
and Fat Joe] want to stand so close to him that they become a part of our relationship,
then I make their life hard."
Both Jadakiss and Fat Joe have stated that they will
not back down from 50 Cent.
Jadakiss’ newest
track opens with him congratulating 50 Cent on his new album The Massacre
selling a million records in just four days.
Then the verbal
assault begins.
Jadakiss labels
50 a snitch and questions his claims of being the king of New York, now that
the Queen’s bred rapper resides in Mike Tyson’s former mansion in
Connecticut.
“I don’t
have a problem with clout/You aint get shot again so what’s your second
album about/Your rap’s are preschool, You made a lot of money now be cool/Before
I swell up your lips like seafood,” the rapper says.
The record is the
latest in the verbal battle between 50 Cent and some of rap’s most popular
artists.
Yesterday, the
rapper ended a beef with Game, a former member of 50 Cent’s own G-Unit,
after 50 accused Game of being a traitor for aspiring to record a song with
Nas.
The problems between
the two chart-topping rapper’s escalated last Monday (Feb. 28), after
a Compton, California man affiliated with Game was shot in front of Hot 97’s
offices.
That dispute was
ended yesterday (March 9) at the Schomburg Center in Harlem New York, where
the two rapper’s held a press conference and buried the hatchet.
50 Cent and Jadakiss
are label mates, as both have deals with Interscope Records. Fans are bracing
for the dispute to escalate.
“A lot of
things he [Jadakiss] said did have some truth to it,” said Snickers, a
member of AllHipHop.com’s Ill Community. “Now, I’m just waiting
on the real heat to come. I’m sure all of them got some ammo stocked up. They
are going to be going at for a little bit."
