Thats exactly how it happened.


September 2001:Nelly's song "#1" from the "Training Day" soundtrack gets out.Nelly explains that "#1" is directed at all the people hating on him and biting his style.

April 2002 :KRS One and Tone-def release "Clear 'Em Out" on The Difference compilation that takes a swipe at Nelly's "#1." KRS raps, "You tired of me saying what's real hip-hop? Well I'm tired of you biting my sh** to go pop."Nelly appears on "106th & Park" explaining that he respects KRS One but will come back at him in self-defense.KRS One issues a press release explaining his side of the story. KRS says that "Clear 'Em Out" was not aimed at Nelly and that he did not feel that Nelly's "#1" was directed at him.

May 2002:Nelly records a "Roc Da Mic" remix with Roc-A-Fella artist Freeway on which he refers to KRS One as "the first rapper to get a pension." The song is ultimately released on Nelly's sophomore album Nellyville.KRS One releases "The Real Hip Hop Is Over Here" that disses the music business' corporate structure and calls for a boycott of Nellyville to send a message to the labels who don't respect the Hip Hop culture.

KRS shot at Nelly first.

I don't believe he caught feelings off some soundtrack record. He used that shyt as an excuse to go at Nelly cuz it was easy.

On the Beef DVD he claims to write a diss record "that would end careers" for every rapper in the top 10.

KRS is the king of dissing nikkas for lame reason ala MC Shan. The bridge clearly says "they want to tell u a story bout where THEY come from". KRS saw his opportunity and went it...I don't blame him but he's made a career off chumping lame nikkas like homeboy from PM Dawn...u wanna tell me that nikka started it 2? :camby:
PM Dawn did start it in an interview yes. And KRS let it be known he wasn't dissing Nelly, Nelly dissed him on on TV then KRS dropped his diss....

He even admitted on the beef dvd he dissed shan for no reason. He said he didnt even know shan. He said without him dissing shan their would be no Krs no bdp no self destruction. Krs just thought he could diss nelly and come up but it didnt work. He talk he all about hip hop. But he was telling people to boycott nelly music and buy his music.

Biggie knew how krs was.

KRS-One?? Naahhh…I don’t like KRS no more ’cause he just think
he’s too dope. He let his ego take over his shyt and that’s what brings
him down. When he was like that (shouts “Blow it to yourself”), when he was
like that, then he was a ten but now, ‘I am Hip Hop’!!! Eat a dikk nikka.
Eat a muthaphukkin dikk!

Has nothing to do with music, KRS-One won when it came the diss tracks and that is what a battle is about, not the amount of record sales after or battles would be almost predetermined.
I cosign this. People try to use the 50 Cent defense. Get slaughtered lyrically but claim victory cause of record sales. That's not hip hop. Its about the lyrical content .:yeshrug:

If people feel Nelly made better songs :manny: it's all opinion.

But the sales angle is silly because Cube dissed Vanilla Ice on "Us" but Vanilla Ice sold 10 mill.

So....did Vanilla Ice win? Realistically could you sit there in 1991 and tell someone that, without getting laughed out of the fukking room? :heh:

Dawg, this entire explanation went over these retards' heads, because it's entirely too logical.

You'll never convince them that "relevance" ISN'T measured by sales.

Nelly is currently touring with New Kids On The Block. Let that sink in a second.

The last time I heard Nelly in the news he was getting sued because he couldn't pay his credit card bills....which is why he's touring with NKOTB.

Selling a bunch of records =/= you are rich. Ask TLC.

Fred.
My school gave nelly about 70k to perform. I couldn't believe it, I was distraught.

Ive never liked nelly besides get high with me. He strikes me as goofy/corny. Yet, I thought thought those krs tracks were hot garbage
