      Yeah but he never really answers totally truthfully. They had a mega competitiive rivalry with big and bad boy. That skit was more then just them talking about the album cover, they was saying Big was using "CREAM". Biggie was playing up the persona popping champagne like he was King of NY.
      Then on Wu Tang forever RZA went back to it. We told you on the Cubin Link album, stop bitting our shit". He went in on Puffy "Loopin the track trying to turn Rap into R&B, rap and bullshit" "All that Player Shit". "This is Hip-Hop in it's purest form" "Producers its cool to show love but stop bitting our shit"
      ODB interrupted the Grammies and said "Puffy is cool, but Wu Tang is the best, Wu Tang is for children"

    I didn’t argue. I just game him an assignment to listen to a few of the most classic albums of all time. I told him before he even gets started good, he’ll realize how silly today’s rap is.

      I understand the explanation of it just fine. I just think it’s STUPID to start conflict with somebody over album cover pictures of children. There’s no real precedent or principle to it. Rappers BEEN having pictures of themselves or whoever else at whatever ages on album covers. Nas put a picture of himself(just his face) from when he was 7 years old up against a backdrop of project buildings. Big used a picture of an infant in diapers against a white backdrop. Why is that a damn reason to start conflict? You’ll give the general answer of “biting”, but you can’t actually identify the specific offense therein because, again, there is no principle/ precedent for it.
      Artists BEEN having all kinds of pictures of people of all ages against all kinds of backgrounds. What are y’all saying? That since Nas used a picture of his 7 year old face, no other artist can ever use a picture of a child the same age or younger or the same age and up to 7 years older? Is that the specific principle/ precedent? Because if it is, y’all needed to be mad at Nas for “biting” The Howard Hanger Trio album called “A Child is Born”.

    not sure that Nas is the first person in history to put his baby picture on his album cover What ghost said was unessassarry, that why he turned around and apologized, because he was emotional when he said it. Biggie was just as dope a MC as ghost face !! If not better !!

      Subliminal dissing is the superior form of dissing because it's a form of lyrical exercise it's skillful and playful. It's gets people talking and it's always layered a certain way that you pretty much have an idea who the artist is talking about. Calling out names is simpleton shit there's no fun in that. Doesn't take skill to say fuck DMX anybody off the street can do that.

They knew their power and they acted carefully with their power, that’s what makes them even greater.
