@Royceda59 @Odyssey529 @JoeBudden I can't deal with these passive aggressive vague gaslighting, lying my omission responses.

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

@SirJulianCooper @fatjoe @fatjoe If nobody has called you the n-word in a disparaging way, you're being disrespectful when YOU use it. I don't care what environment you've grown up in or the people that allowed it. The world doesn't appreciate it... Let's start there then I can hear you.

@cordae Dropped a fire project. Just thought I'd let ya'll know.

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

@cleosol dropped the R&B album of the year "Mother" and I don't care what anyone else has to say about it.

So cohesive - so many beautiful lyrics - The vibe is everything you'd expect a relaxed Sunday morning to be.

No - this is not an ad, but listen to it please.

@kennygotsoul The spirit of a lizard is strong in this one.

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

@ekomikaze @thisisrory @MAL___ @reasonTDE Definitely SOUNDED like it, but I never thought that was his character so I assumed it was a name.

I was right.

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

@Royceda59 Can we please talk about this rap situation between you, Lupe & Mickey Factz privately and off the record?

I'm not looking for clout, I'm looking for clarity.

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

@MickeyFactz Joe staying his ass at the crib. You put A LOT of fans and rappers on notice.

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

@MickeyFactz So you smack someone upside with the boxes they say you're not checking, and they respond with the threat of rapper friends?

Come on.

Good show Mickey - THIS is hip hop and you was Shang Tsung with the flows.

Thank you.

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

@smokedza @Royceda59 @MickeyFactz Mickey pulled your card Royce - I don't think the confident bravado is gonna erase this one. Those boxes were checked.

Your turn.

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

So who took Round 1 between @Royceda59 and @LupeFiasco ?

My unbiased opinion is Lupe is up. He simple had more direct shots that hit home. While displaying really amazing rapping, I think Royce was baiting him and he pretty much gave up this round.

2 masters at work here!

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

@Royceda59 bombed first now @LupeFiasco with the casual response that seems to hit like a 1 inch punch.

You can tell Lupe freestyled this.

Round 2 is when the real fun begins.

Royce was shadow boxing - Lupe was looking to draw some blood.

@Royceda59
bombed first at
@LupeFiasco
& proved why he's 1 of the most gifted men with the pen in rap.

I'm glad this is just competitive sport.

I'll double back with Lupe's response later.

*Had to redo it cause I had my man Royce zombied out. lol

@Royceda59 Are you telling me you were in base form? You on some Goku shit going at his opponent while hiding his true power.

That's wild and I'm glad I'm just a fan that get's to watch this play out.

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

@Mandac5 Sheep will say no you're not allowed - otherwise you'll get ridiculed - but that sounds like control to me. I don't like chains on my ankles so they can piss off.

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

@tonyxsantana @RapCaviar I see you Tony! - "Again" is hard. Adding that to the playlist.

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

@HipHopNumbers @RansomPLS @BennyBsf I have to go to Australia!

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

Since Robin Thicke is trending - don't forget he has one of the best R&B albums of 2021 so far.

Yes. 2021. Talk to em @robinthicke

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

I don't think @robinthicke get's enough credit for keeping that classic R&B sound going.

@BenjiSocrates Kids - You gotta love when they just figure some shit out.

[BARS 1st Listen Edition @BARS1stListen]

Alright @SincerestDon - my bad for sleeping, I stumbled across a dope song on Instagram and I'm glad I did.
