It’s been a year full of high-profile rap beefs. Kendrick Lamar and Drake have completely stolen the show for weeks now hitting each other with repeated diss tracks. That hasn’t been the only high-profile spat in the genre to take place this year either. Fans will remember that earlier this year Megan Thee Stallion and Nicki Minaj found themselves locked in a beef resulting in one of the most maligned diss tracks of all time from Nicki. Quavo and Chris Brown have also been releasing tracks about each other, reigniting a prior beef. It’s even seeped into pop music where Taylor Swift dropped a diss track aimed at Kim Kardashian.
But there’s one person taking issue with the very concept of rap beefs, Lil B. The rapper took to Twitter to share his surprising take on some of the heated interactions between his contemporaries. “STAY POSITIVE I DONT LIKE HEARING THE BULLYING OR PEOPLE SAYING MEAN THINGS ABOUT EACH OTHER IN MUSIC OR HIP HOP! HIP HOP IS ABOUT LOVE! AT THE SAME TIME HIP HOP IS ABOUT EXPERIENCE! I JUST HOPE NOBODY IS TRYING TO BULLY EACH OTHER OR BE MEAN! NO PUTTING OTHERS DOWN! XOX” he said in a tweet today. Fans flooded the replies of the post praising his take and asking for new music. Check out the variety of responses to the post below.
