How many rappers careers ended over a beef

[28 Gramz]

LL didn't end Canibus career that flop ass first album did.

 

[Plankton]

KRS career went straight to irrelevance after beefing with Nelly.

 

[saiyamangetshoes]

Shawty lo won that beef

Shawty Lo went neck and neck with prime T.I. and damn near won the battle.

History revisionist.

 

[saiyamangetshoes]

Canibus but that’s cuz he wasn’t really on. No one who was actually on and big lost their career, even someone like lil Flip, his time was simply up, was surprising be even made it as big as he did.

Nah, Tip did this

 

[spliz]

Diss definitely hurt him, but Can-I-Bus being mid was the nail in the coffin.

Already having heard most of the album before it dropped didn't help either.

The diss didn't hurt him being that alotta people felt he won. That battle wasn't some sweep. On top of that. Canibus wasn't established yet. He didn't drop his first solo yet. His first solo ended up being dirt. If it was fire. He would've been fine.

 

[Goatpoacher]

Canibus. EASILY.

Canibus mainstream career ended because his first album sucked.

 

[Turbulent]

MC Shan?
Kool Moe Dee?

 

[NormanConnors]

He has an album coming with Preemo

Man don't even bother with these cats/the coli and its damn agendas

 

[Erratic415]

I thought Canibus having a disappointing debut album and not really having widespread, mainstream appeal is what really hurt his career.

Ja maybe, but he was also just getting overexposed at that point. Always on the radio or TV, I think a lot of people were just tired of him.

 

[badboys11]

That new York song was the last time we heard ja on the radio


50 went at everybody rapping on that song


New York ain't had a nationwide NYC anthem since

 

[Cuban Pete]

Canibus
Ja Rule
MC Eiht
Everlast
Stan Spit
Nature

Really all I could think of as far as career "ending"

Career "altering" is a whole lot longer of a list

 

[AlbertPullhoez]

History revisionist.

Nah Lo and them was really on Grand Hustle neck



"Who can you run to? Hope it ain't Tameka"

 

[New Jeruzalem Journalist]

MC Shan

This is the best answer. Most of the other names involved situations where the rapper had other shyt happen to them that was equally, if not more damaging than the beef that ended their chapter.

Maybe Stan Spit?

 

[Sauce and Footwork]

Shawty Lo had three songs in heavy rotation in 2008: Dey Know, Foolish, Done Done. After "What's Up, What's Happenin" crickets. People were laughing at making jokes about Shawty Lo. Now that he's passed away, people want to act like they were team Lo knowing they laughed about pretty much everything he did after Units In The City. People laughed about him signing to G Unit and laughed about the reality show.

Sorry bro, I’m from Atlanta and this is not true. It had absolutely nothing to do with TI song. TI a rapper and Lo a street legend. Nobody disrespected him cuz of TI. In fact people thought it exposed TI and he lost. Didn’t even matter what song was better at that point. when he shot that video in front of Bankhead, people was talking about how much security he had with him. So Lo had everybody looking at TI as a fake gangster for the first time. Atlanta never looked at TI the same. That’s not a L. Shawty just wasn’t coming out with good new music

 

[BK The Great]

Ja
Benzino
Pac & Big when that beef went to the deep end
