hmm interesting. It might sound wild but I wouldn’t be surprised if spitta didn’t know but who knows. It’s just I feel like he’s always got a great title so why bite
This is what I was saying. Spitta legit made a whole announcement on IG apologizing and saying he legit forgot boy did a project with that name. nikka NEVER had this issue before so why bite a nikka from his crew’s title on purpose knowing people Gonna automatically connect it?

The bracket shyt was not that big a deal to rebring back up the joe budden interview when he was annoyed by the lack of promotion spitta did. He aint even shyt on spitta in that complex pic

plus they was joking going back n forth recently on ig when spitta got his corvette
Look. I remember when he first ranted on Twitter about Spitta not promoting the shyt. For one. That’s corny in itself. Because if u my man’s I’m not gonna Twitter rant about some shyt I can call u about. Number 2. Curren$y responded and I thought that was that. Didn’t pay it no mind. I check YouTube today and watch him rate the collab albums, then I see him unnecessarily bring up the fact that he won’t do a collab with Spitta again. So I was like ok. This nikka still on this shyt. Then I saw the Joe Budden Pull Up cause someone pointed it out in the comments. Watched it and saw all the shade being thrown from both them nikkas. Moreso Joe. But Gibbs was talking bout him like he was some industry nikka. I titled the thread “beef” because nikkas love sensational speech. But it was def friction. And since Gibbs has a history of literally never getting over shyt. It came to my head to make this thread. The fact that the nikka decides to bring that shyt up every single time the album comes up without even being provoked makes me check off another box on his ho nikka shyt card. Maybe y’all nikkas Twitter beef wit y’all friends and air them out publicly but that’s not typically how I handle things wit my nikkas. But keep goin.

I mean, that would be kind of a reach:patrice:

Gran turismo is a real type of car and game series so that's different

I'd hope le$ wouldn't trip for that reason:skip:

I didn’t “pull up” old anything. The Brackets video was from literally a couple weeks ago. Which is why I was surprised he’s STILL speaking on it unprovoked. Atleast check what I posted before u react.
I was speaking about the Budden/Gibbs Pull Up video and yea you got a point with the brackets thing but it's still not really anything. There is no beef or anything underlying. Gibbs just annoying and don't like to let shyt just be. He did the same thing with Jeezy for years when there really wasn't a beef. He be feeling he gets done wrong and don't want to let the shyt go and it becomes annoying. His album with Al just got him a grammy nom and he still mentioning the lack of promo for Fetti which was what 7-8 song EP from 3 years ago. He released Bandana and Alfredo since then which were way bigger. I mean if we speaking the truth, his verse on Scottie Pippen is what put a lot of eyes on him and elevated his status. I was putting people onto Gibbs back on SOHH with Miseducation and Midwest..., Str8 Killa, and the interest wasn't nearly as big as it was until after that verse on CC.

My bad, I rememeber the clips of Freddie and Currensy working on Fetti before this even dropped. Point still stands though

This isn't even the best project he's dropped since he came home from jail
You obviously ain’t listen to it lol

The project came out right after Gibbs had that rape case right? Maybe he feels Curren$y didn't want to help promote the project because of that.

Maybe Gibbs did speak to him and Curren$y gave him the runaround

Maybe they spoke the other day and its not that serious :yeshrug:
The bolded is something I never considered. Definitely possible, but honestly I think Currensy was just being a little lazy. I wish I knew where the interview was, but he spoke on it in 2020 and said the whole situation made him want to promote stuff more, and I wanna say he did a video for every single song on the OutRunners EP he did that year.

It's undeniable that the Covert Coup verse was huge. It was a 32-bar non-stop rapid fire blackout verse. It's not as if Gibbs didn't have any fans before then. He absolutely did. But I don't think there's any question that Covert Coup introduced Gibbs to much broader audience. The amount of people that say the first time they remember hearing Gibbs was on Scottie Pippens is pretty crazy.

I'd definitely heard him before, but that was the first verse that made me want to check for every thing he did.

It's one of the best verses from that entire blog era of hip-hop.

THIS is what I was trying to tell this nikka @Piff Perkins and he was trying to tell me I didn’t know about Gibbs. Being disingenuous as fukk. ANYONE who fukked wit Gibbs knows his status elevated after Scottie Pippen. There’s literally no debating it.

That would make more sense if Curren$y wasn’t notoriously known for doing this shyt with most of his projects. He was always good with leading up promotion but not follow thru promotion. After the album drops. He just leaves it alone.
