    Ripper Roo Who want the smoke?

    I haven’t bothered. Joey, Ray, and Daylyt are the only rappers I care about in this. Everybody else (Reason, AzChike, CJ Fly, etc.) feels like side characters that aren’t adding much to it for me. I even saw that YouTuber Curtis King make a response track

    More side characters entering the beef today… at this point I’m almost expecting LA and NY mfs on this forum to start making diss tracks too on a flip phone mic or something.

    Two. Pi and A Plate of Collard Greens

    His choice is production is questionable @Uncle Luke especially the last 3 diss tracks he put out. YHRR is dope and his best track he put out of the beef. Joey put out better quality tracks than everyone else imo

    Oh yeah I forgot about Pi on Might Delete Later, I might’ve deleted that tape from my brain
    I’ve only listened to most of the tracks once but the impression I get is that Daylyt is the best lyrical technician but Joey put out the overall most enjoyable tracks on first listen and Ray was close in enjoyable aspects but also had better lines than Joey. Those 3 are the only important ones tbh all these other guys feel like side characters. People overhyped Daylyt they acted like he would demolish everybody but that didn’t really happen

    My take….beef is weird to me. Lyrically speaking and in terms of hits, features, fan base and success, Cole is miles ahead of Joey. Cole backed out of a beef with someone who he had a history of friendship with or so he thought and therefore his past work doesn’t count? Some think this way. Joey took on a whole coast…but for what really? Is Joey now a better MC than Cole and others or just more brash and confident? Idk about that though because Cole is brash and confident on certain songs not named Grippy and 7 Min Drill (Applying Pressure, Stickz N Stonez, 3001). Maybe Joey will gain traction out of this…but he’ll need hits. I don’t see Vaughn having hits. He doesn’t have the it factor. I don’t think Joey does either. JID has more potential to be the next huge rapper than all of these guys. Idk it’s just weird…hip hop was talking about them more this year due to beef than when they drop projects. But outside of the beef from here on out we’ll see if they can gain traction and build their fan bases.

    The thing is Joey been putting out mid for a while and it’s sad that it took this rap beef for him to finally put out some good raps again
