Never heard it referred to as this title :childplease:
This was ‘don’t Body ya self’ in real time

In real time it was dope. However it was at a time when Nas’ voice had dimmed a bit popularity wise. The Kiss and Lox disses rang out more

I always loved this John legend sample tho :scusthov:

The pockets Nas was going in and out of is :wow: and his bars were soul touchin’

50 is in denial talkin’ about only Jadakiss
Jadas diss charted. And 50 was number driven then. And they were clowning him hard. 50 only unsettled them by dropping I run NY. Which was dope but it was only the trash talk at the end about buying their publishing and pushing styles back that had them on the radio threatening to throw fridges on puff.

I really don't think 50 cared about nas, gza, az etc and the other nikkas that torched him. He'd just do an interview to try provoke em or a bar sometimes. Coz he wasn't out rapping em and banks was out the paint with pops dying.

Rick ross followed 50s blueprint. Disses nikkas every time an album coming then crickets unless clowning in an interview

Compared to Ether and H to the Mo, this track was more of a "lets keep this between me and you", because Fiddy didn't even want to dance with the God son.

But on the real, around that time everybody had it in for Fiddy from Jada to Buddens, yet somehow 50 just kept it trucking until he became washed in the end.

Almost as if he did the shyt to himself, and thankfully a smart dude with evolving from hip hop to media production.

Wish fif would’ve responded because that warning shot was weak compared to piggy bank but people were low key scared of nas and didn’t want the ether treatment

It shows the genius of Nas.

he ain't have to go on the radio talking all kinds of salacious flagrant greezy shyt
he ain't have to make a million disses
he ain't have to use social media or post memes on instagram

he floated on a beat, tapped dudes chin, highlighted that he'd taken some Ls, implicitly threatened his grandmothers life

and 50 really aint do shyt

that's how certified dudes move

50 didn’t want it with Nas for several reasons but its more so because he had a lot of respect for Nas for taking him on his first tour and showing him love. Even while they were beefing 50 always called Nas one of the greatest and said that Nas first verse on The Message was his favorite all time lyrical performance.

this isn't true..... cos if he respected nas for (insert reason) he would not have been on the radio saying Kelis smells like full court basketball
and lots of other disrespectful stuff

he was upset that Nas was rollin with Irv and Murder Inc

but he knew he couldn't really fukk with him on a lyrical/ musical level

he used to clown his numbers and shyt, but he knew better than to engage in combat, ESPECIALLY post ether


Nas line in OP
'scared of me so they talk about family members' acknowledges that he heard the disrespect

Ross handled 50 the best. Their spar was most entertaining.
