Troy Ave is seemingly nowhere close to done with Taxstone, even after the latter was found guilty of manslaughter in his case. Moreover, the New York rapper took to Twitter to continue to flame the media personality after the court delayed his sentencing. Specifically, he alluded to “lies” and “defamation” in his message, although he didn’t clarify what it referred to. Presumably, it has to do with Taxstone’s own takedowns of Troy and their long-standing beef on social media and beyond. Still, a lot of people pointed out that Ave isn’t necessarily painted in the best light in this case, either.
“If I sued this broke a** pancreatic fat n*** for defamation of character it would end up costing Me money,” Troy Ave tweeted. “Them lies ain’t adding up but neither is ya $$$ #DearHaterIWon.” Afterwards, some fans clapped back at him in the replies. “It would end up costing me money- sounds like you the broke one, sir,” one tweeter fired off. “Well since live nation and irving plaza know your the 1 to start the altercation your not winning anything but you know that by now,” another added.
Troy Ave Threatens To Expose Taxstone’s “Lies”
Last month, Taxstone faced a guilty verdict on charges of manslaughter, assault, and criminal possession of a weapon. Moreover, these charges related to the death of Troy Ave’s bodyguard Ronald “Banga” McPhatter in 2016. Since their case saw more mainstream attention, Ave capitalized on it by releasing a couple of diss tracks. For example, there’s his “victory” song “Dear Hater I Won,” plus a couple of other lyrical attacks at the podcaster. Given his other beef with the likes of Maino, the rapper is flaring up a lot of conflict these days.
Meanwhile, Troy was really feeling himself throughout this trial, comparing himself to Jay-Z with a picture. “To all my real ones that been riding with & for Me, today is the day I finally get to clear my name,” he captioned the post about the Taxstone case and him testifying. “It’s been almost 7 years since I lost one of my closest friends #RIPBANGA, 7 years of a narrative about it being my fault, 7 years of my character being assassinated all the while Trying to defend myself without saying much! At my weakest points I drew strength from GOD! drew strength from my Children & drew strength from Yall.” Regardless of your take on this feud, return to HNHH for the latest on Troy Ave and Taxstone.
