One second applause for the spirit of competition!
👏👏
I love that you were able to premiere a Ras Kass heater!
Me TOO!!!!
I'm starting to get that feeling of when mixtapes was out and it was just competition. I love to see it
ME TOO!
Man this has been a wild several months, it has been so much fun! 😄 Loving the energy from everyone. ❤🔥
I'm loving it!
@ me tooooooo! And I'm infinitely grateful that you are here through it all, can't imagine what this past year would have been without your voice. 🙏❤️
I’m in LA but I’m lovin that Joey kicked off 2025 with this competition. We’re seeing the best spirit of hip hop right now. Much needed positive vibes in a time when there’s so much darkness out there. ✨
Cliff Savage gained a new fan in me with Bad Wolf and In A Bag ! 🗣🔥🔥🔥 His song For the Soul is awesome too
Cliff is super dope!! I didnt have Ras Kass doing a tune in all of this on my bingo card!! Im glad Daylyts getting a lot of love recently!! Hes got such a cool style!!
Alright it took Cliff Savage but I'm finally a member ❤❤❤
I appreciate seeing the words…there is no way to misunderstand. He wants everyone to clearly understand what he is saying! I have to respect that!
I didn’t notice he was rapping into clippers! I love that he’s rapping in a barbershop tho 🔥
Ras Kass is a God level MC 🔥
I would love to hear Kass and Pharaohe Monch collab if they haven't already.
Rass was flowing over that beat
His bars went over everybody's dome...many haven't circled the SUN enough to know what "click clatts" are.🎤🔥
"Crash out, then you better break the backboard" that's what I want Joey to do.
At this point, alot of west coast fans gassing up artists that aren’t on joey’s level based on that one line
@@Alx1116 And that is my point... if you're dissing an entire coast and you don't crash out and actually say a name, then don't get upset when you're getting dissed by people who you don't consider to be on Joey's level.
@@shotbyfabi if he says kendricks name all these people below kendrick will do the same thing they doing now.and the fans will say “he needs to go through so and so first” the kendrick and drake beef exposing hip hop fans to what being biased means. I am now thinking it was all for clout an he won’t call out kendrick and i say that as a fan of both but we’ll see
@@Alx1116 That is my entire point. He had his chance to crash out from the start, and he came with sneak dissin. None of these dudes would have came at him the way they did if Kendrick was the clear target and he didn't tip toe around it by dissing the coast, when we all know damn well the "west coast d lickin" is referring to Kendrick's success.
@ no it is referring to exactly what is happening. Every joey track trash or “not enough” to west coast fans but vaughn, and every west coast diss is amazing and “wow he bodied joey”. Daylyt the only artist so far even close to joey’s level that has responded and i think has had the best beat and verses in all this. To me it was a diss to nyc fans that they d licking the west and don’t even listen to or want to listen to nyc rap and he mad about it. Or else he wouldn’t have said the slim pickens line which was saying there aren’t many out there in the west on joey’s level which is true. I ain’t from either coast so can be unbiased
“So called Champs Ducking Contenders “ couldn’t have said it better Ray Vaughn still there waiting, Cliff Savage is a honorable mention
Cj fly responded to Ray, don’t think Joey needs to respond to him.
Why should Joey respond to ppl with no resume or not clout whatsoever? Ya'll are weird dawg istg.
Imagine saying Kendrick needed to respond to Joell Ortiz because he dropped a Control response back in the day, that's how ridiculous ya'll sound.
@ that’s facts Ray probably had to rent the car in his videos. Joey owns the car in his video
@@ptyten9718they don’t understand how combat sports work 😭 beating no top 10 contenders and asking for a title fight is crazy
Cliff Savage has had the best flow switch ups imo in all of this. And in a bag and Wars & Rumors of Wars are the catchiest of the whole competition.
Ras got 2 beast offspring lurking on the COAST!
5:15 “I don’t consider this i a Clout Chase this is what Hip Hop is about “ 🤩🫡
This is crazy cause the narrative these Cole and Kendrick fans are pushing is that Joey is clout chasing lol.
Yet when it is their best interest it's no clout chasing no more 😂
Rass went it 🔥.
Rass Kass the lyrical legend of the West
Cliff savage goes hard. I can feel it! His flow is just diff we need that!
Sounds like a Jr. Version od J Monty, no shade
I love the west coast energy! This could be a really good thing for Hip Hop.
Shout out to Ras Kas! He was just featured on a Nino bless song with Cambatta and Slug from Atmosphere. Song and video are incredible.
2:45 Mick Vaughn Daylyt
Props to The Company Man for being committed to react to all the responses. That is truly hip-hop. 🫡
Another Savage song with high replay and repeat value. Just🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋🌋☄☄☄☄☄☄
Waterproof MC🔥🔥🔥
Greetings Justin! In the spirit of checking out new (or not so new) lyrical talent, I would like to suggest you check out COAST CONTRA. The twins (Ras and Taj Austin) in the group are actually Ras Kass and Teedra Moses' sons. There's another brother, Eric Jamal, who is from Philly and Rio Loz, who is from Columbia by way of Florida. They've been together for roughly 11 years and they are pure HEAT!
DAMN I LOVE HIP HOP this year has been so damn good already and we aren't even a month in
BIGFAX!
As a New Yorker I’m very disappointed at Joey. Almost every reactor is confused after listening to sorry not sorry, just like myself. Not only is it unfocused and he throws a random stray at Cole, but the bars are so rudimentary. He can do so much better and I hope he proves us wrong. But right now these two tracks from him are really weak. In terms of bars, some of the West Coast responses are just so much better.
Ras actually saluted Joey on his song if you listen, he’s knows it’s
Competition he’s from THAT era. Joey just gotta drop another fire album and IF someone claps at him and or pro era directly (which would risky imo) THEN they gotta go crazy,
@@romaretaylor9953 But they have been clapping at him directly. Sorry Not Sorry is strange because he's responding and not responding at the same time. He says he wants all the smoke but he's not responding to the smoke. I guess you can say that they are not on his level but those tracks got a lot of shine and they are REALLY GOOD. Joey's strategy is a bit clumsy IMO. Again, I hope he proves me wrong because I'm a fan.
"Almost every reactor" dawg lmao. Pls recommend me some good reactors because most of them think anything that's rapped aggressively and with conviction is fire, still haven't seen a good bar breakdown from them.
I can't believe ppl really pushing this narrative ngl, not only are most of these responses mid lyrically, they are from mostly no name rappers with no resume or clout.
@@romaretaylor9953 not to anybody bro lol, some of these ppl don't deserve responses.
@ No Life Shaq, Curtiss King, VibeVilla.
Yeah this is fun. It's a shame that ever got away from lyrical competition.
It's All Happening!!!
Roc Marciano is the king of New York, y’all got jokes tho
Easily, Rome Streetz cold too.
Man the West Coast is barred up right now
Although I love to see people "pop out and show Ninja's", the West is really, really, and I mean really running with one line that can be attributed to one of the greatest rappers alive who also said he was "Sorry ,but not sorry" for coming out of so called retirement.
The people who should really be getting their bars up is all those East Coast rappers who let Ice Spice best all of them on 2024. But maybe that's just me I guess...
Probably the stupidest recurring narrative from ya'll.
Did Blueface becoming such a big rappers for all those years mean real deal MCs like Planet Asia and Earl Sweatshirt should be embarrassed?
NY hip hop is super dope still, it's just underground (Roc Marciano, Rome Streetz, Skyzoo, Conway, 38 Spesh, etc.)
Ya'll not hip hop fans like that.
I feel as if he thought the East would ride harder for him... This is embarrassing from that standpoint. I love that he did it, just wish younger NY rappers would tried to showcase their skill.
Fr like where is ProEra or UO or Flatbush Zombies?? Only person I seen come out was CJ Fly.
There's so such thing as "the East".
West Coast rappers are obsessed with reppin "westside", "west coast", "west up" all the time. Ppl from "the east" rarely ever claim the East Coast, like how frequently do you hear "eastside" or sum? Almost never.
This been an overall mid off. Most of the West Coast responses have been mediocre, Joey's tracks' have been okay, etc.
Carson's Finest!!! 🔥🔥🔥
SAVAGE ✨ 💯
This whole situation has got to be humbling for Joey. He took a shot at the heavyweight champion and he's getting ganged up on, and outperformed, by the amateur club boxers.
This is insane 💀
"ganged up on" and it's a bunch of no names and ppl with no clout. Not to even mention most of these tracks have been mediocre lol.
This gotta be the best era for mid rappers bro cause ya'll will gas up anything 😂
@@ptyten9718if they're mid what's Joey? Bc they all pretty much outdid him bar wise....I stan none of them, I just love good music. Which Joey has, but the last 2 songs....nah. Stans gon stan tho lol.
@@econometrics469 Rass Kass isn’t amateur but hey 🤷🏾♂️
@@luvmyfam82bro said stan, Joey not even a top 10 rapper from NY currenty. I ain't a fan like that.
99% of ppl that responded to Joey are irrelevant in hip hop, they don't matter. Nobody is ganging up anyone because they not even on the same block. Imagine saying Kendrick needed to respond to all the NY/NJ that responded to Control no matter how small time they were, would have been an insanely ridiculois statement. Ya'll gotta get real and touch Earth, nobody cares about most of these dudes lmao.
@ptyten9718 first off I'm a woman, don't call me bro.... secondly idc about numbers I care about talent. Music is subjective so U may feel they are irrelevant but I and many other ppl don't and we don't have to agree with U,bc again music is subjective.... thirdly U may need to take your own advice and touch earth - which is a weird statement, I've heard touch grass but touch earth?? I'd never spend so much time commenting on stuff I find to be mediocre. Have a good night....
Joey needs to name drop and respond directly!
Who exactly needs a name drop?
Are ya'll living in an alternate reality? Joey would sound absolutely crazy if he namedropped "Cliff Savage" and "Ray Vaughn" bro, they have no relevance or clout whatsoever.
@@ptyten9718 Passive aggressive vague tracks aint cutting it. You have something to say to someone, put a name on it.
@@afrobutterfly this literally dismisses hundreds of dope disses in the history of hip hop just because they didn't have a direct namedrop, ya'll weird.
@ptyten9718 We'll agree to disagree.
5:23 “I’m a big supporter of new artist, especially the lyricist” 5:23
Are the Joey fans going to say Ras Kass is not worth responding to like they said about Ray Vaughn?
Probably.
Ray Vaughn is def not worth responding to, they right.
Ras Kass deserves just off his status and resume.
@ Ray had one of the best diss tracks towards Joey if not the best. If he wants to play the status game to excuse him from not responding directly to Ray, that’s on him. It just looks weak and Joey isn’t really in position to back away from battles that he started.
second dude rapped good but he didn’t say much in terms of diss
He literally said it wasn't a diss in the song
@ you’re right my bad lol.
Tbh Responding To People Like Cliff Savage Only Benefits Cliff. I’ve Never Heard Of Him Before This. Its More Logical To Call This A Clout Chase Than What Joey Did.
I love Cliffs voice and flow. 🔥 track.
You should react to Sy the Rapper's response to Joey. It's called Undercover Hater. I like it
I loved the first song... Then no disrespect but I wonder if Cliff actually wrote his lyrics... It's either I should give him a suggestion or he wrote his own lyrics.
am I the only one who caught that bar after the "big clippers" line where he says they overreacting (ovary acting) for views ?
🔥🔥🔥

Am I the only person that thinks the second verse on “Sorry Not Sorry” is a pretty blatant diss to Cole?
“Nigga, what's beef? Huh
Beef is when a nigga like you can't sleep, uh
Wake up with no appetite and now you can't eat, uh, now you can't speak (Nah)
Cat got his tongue, he been missin' all week, uh
Perfect time to separate the strong from the weak, uh
I won't ever hesitate, won't ever miss a beat, nah
Stay calm and meditate, but know I got a be armed, uh”
Whether you like out or think it’s weak I think Joey has a select few he thinks it’s worth engaging with wouldnt call it a white flag though
@@knowlesjared white flag is insane, these ppl are biased as hell lol.
Before Joey Stepped Up for the East coast, what were they doing on the Westside ??
What are we doing bro?
Did Kendrick drop the white flag when he didn't respond to the dozens of NY/NJ artists who responded to Control with dope tracks? I don't even like Joey like that but ya'll actin' like he *needs* to respond to ppl with no clout or relevance currently is kinda crazy.
He responded to Daylyt with the same energy Lyt came at him with. Lyt is easily the best WC rapper that responded to him & has a lot of clout and respect as a lyricist because of his battle rap resume. Joey isn't gonna respond to just anybody bro ya'll need to chill 😂
How Ras Kass smoked Joyner Lucas, I don’t have much hope for Joey! But I do want to state that this is an unfair comparison tho!
Pay attention to the lyrics. Ras isn’t dissing Joey, he’s giving him props for stepping into the arena (“Hip Hop is friendly competition, Joey did that”). The lyrics tell the true story. Appears to me that Ras is humbling Cole, Drake and Kendrick (“the top 3 selling lyricists got in scrap
a Mexican Standoff”; “diss 3 niggas on 1 record with No Effort”)…
But several bars seem especially applicable to Kendrick (“overrated [Overly Dedicated] small fry
i’m literally 5 Guys… so what the fuck is Big Mac ?!
clown [Google Kendrick Lamar Big Mac]”; “it’s like being 5 foot 4 [Kendrick is 5’4 - 5’5]
in a world full of Dwarves
to them, You Shaq
til Yao Ming come back…”).
Hmm. Interesting.
I think Joey underestimated the outcome of what could’ve happened 🥹. I fear the west coast is going to continue to overwhelm him with too many people to rap against .
Vastly underestimated the West Coasts resolve to put it on wax
@ I’m from NewYork I’m happy to hear rap instead of this drill music that’s being boosted all the time I just wish Joey had help atleast 😂😂
@@TheHoodSamuraii Joey went at this the wrong way from jump.
@@TheHoodSamuraii CJ Fly got that ray and daylyt and lyrically matched daylyt imo
Overwhelm him by mostly dropping songs that don't crack 100k views, alr bro ya'll doing too much.
Not only are most of these responses mid, these ppl have no clout or relevance. Joey would be dumb to lower himself to these ppl's level.
I recently stopped following my favorite content creator. I have noticed over time, she has moved away from empowering and educating BW to angry Cheating revenge videos. I won't listen to a woman who doesn't hold Women accountable. I can't do it. Where is the growth? I'm ready to talk about BW community and leave BM to themselves.
Well damn Joey did what he was supposed to 😂😂😂😂do
Cliff Savage is fire
I dropped a song on my page in the spirit of competition titled ‘The Art Of Beef’ since no one from Atlanta has stepped up to the plate yet. Check it out if you like unique rap music from new artists. Love & Peace!🔥🤞💯
What Joey did may have been good for the spirit of competition, but waving the flag the song right after is sad to me. I think Chilling With Monie said it in Curtis King's chat during a live but she said, "Joey just wanted us to listen to his music." It really feels that way. I would've listened anyway because I still feel hype for hip hop off of the release of GNX, but as things stand now I am less interested in what Joey has to say.
I saw Daylyt posted on Twitter that he's putting together another track so we'll see what happens after that. He had the best response to me so I'm looking forward to it.
How did he wave the white flag when he's not even competing with these ppl?
He dissed Cole, Kendrick and Daylyt, he would look dumb responding to Cliff Savage bro lol.
Cliff Savage flow is CRAZY 🤪😜🤪🔥⛽️🔥
Joey not responding to these post office worker’s™️
Thats cuz joey cant afford postage
@ I’m just hoping he breeze on power this rap s*it is cool though lol
Joey may not be responding to these postal workers, but it won’t stop them from delivering 😂🎤🔥
@@lordgodspeed1539 weah ahh deliveries 😂
Smash Bros!!!… but Hip-Hop
Joey got one homie to help him against a whole coast. Damn.
"a whole coast" and it's a bunch of no names who can't 100k views, c'mon dawg ya'll gotta chill with this 😂😂😂
Deep Take : I hate that rappers, fans and media made this battle into anything less than culture. Kendrick has said this many of times and even in the battle he hates Drake and this is serious. These side battles are corny and Joey should instead make an album with substance and these LA rappers are terrible. We as fan deserve a better talent pool front and center from the media so damn we need better journalism too Shesh but yea Drake vs Kendrick isn’t anything more or less than that Drake vs Kendrick Man vs Man that’s why if you stand by that man he kept saying you are ok with actions of someone that is evil and he not joking smh I just don’t get why this isn’t taken more serious
Wait I got more lol what Drake is and excuse me for sounding corny or judgmental or even a hypocrite but what he is is bad for society and human growth all the race bait in the way of his music and promoting toxic actions and childish behavior even in his reggae to Latin songs he is Bruno mars wonder why Sexy Redd with them now after doing a WWE stint smh it’s nasty how the push is what’s necessary but also a push and maybe not what we want or need but yea this copy that music executives and save money on giving to once source … how real are number … Jay Z once said Men Lie Women Lie Number don’t but in the famous words of Maury that was a lie .. Kendrick next album to me will prove if he is better than Hov and that will change everything … Paid rappers will have to speak and culture ties will cross you see Snoop lol all that promo will stop or destroy his image in the culture and make him like kid Rock lol Ice Cube has to make a Friday and Dre has to drop detox we in the era of legacy and legend with everything We let Kevin Hart Drake and LeBron James run our culture to nothing Kobe Jay Z and Dave Chappelle was the 2000s and it was promising but those guys didn’t share what they had they beat the system and kept the secrets …. What’s happening is the ones that was suppose to take over is letting you know why they couldn’t K Dot Katt Williams and Kyrie (you may not think him but remember Dallas vs Boston was the finals) they stopped them and it’s time for the next big 3 to be like them …. Side bars every decade had poets too this was Future when it should’ve been Cole and the one before was Kanye West and before that was Jordan Biggie Martin and PAC trust see what I’m saying for the culture each one has a actors too but I’m rambling you get the picture
To be The Kong of NY from NC makes me as a NC’linian is crazy but I agree! I’m hopin JID take the crown for ATL!
Joey badass is getting cooked. Period.
lol
I love Hip Hop! As long as everything stays on wax, I'm all for sending bars back and forth. But what we really need is MC's on tracks together. Let's get Statik Selektah and Alchemist to produce an East "vs" West compilation album. Call it Battle For Supremacy or something and donate the proceeds to charity. If we're gonna do it, let's make it a moment. Just a thought.
Just imagine, the best MC's from the West Coast on tracks with the best from the East Coast. Imagine Ransom and Ab-Soul on a track together over and Alchemist beat, or Joey Bada$$ and Ray Vaughn on a Statik Selektah beat.
That would interest me way more than diss tracks.
Yo, everyone is doing a 20 v 1 on Joey. Come on, man. Why don't these cowards go at Kendrick, too?
Ras Kass omg the Legend himself.
How does COAST CONTRA fit into this equation?
There is no equation.
Joey is going to have to do his version of Kendrick's BET Cypher and shoot back at everyone in 1 response. Because right now it's a lot of rappers are calling his bluff
I would actually stop listening to Joey if he dedicated lines to all of these no names dawg, imagine Joey freestyling about "Cliff Savage" 💀💀💀
@ptyten9718 That's exactly my point. Kendrick didn't directly respond to every who respondedto control. Kendrick's BET Cypher is a one size fits all diss, but he did focus on the main targets like Drake and Papoose
@@Chill_Brill i feel u
I think Kdot ruined rap battles for me. If they dont end careers. It's not real 😂
if joey wanted real smoke i’m sure he could hit hard. i’ll ghost write for him. just compare ray vaughn to kreayshawn and tell daylyt your raps sound better when drake recites them. obviously not true but shit…
I feel like Ray should go again
Cliff Savage is nice, reminds me of JID
Stop Ras 53yrs old with Beijing in his hair..Justin you been in Cali too long Fam…super mid
