Disrespectful views at Tha Kang, T.I.? Nah, Ms. Banks you're out of line. Yeah Harris' Aussie ain't that dope but neither are you. I just saw you at Coachella and I wasn't impressed. You got the look, the swag, the tough talk but where are the tunes? "212" is alright but that's where it stops. According to Jay-Z's old board rules: You have no right to diss Tip. Look in the mirror and ask yourself: How many classic albums have you created? Are you on anyone's top 10 MCs list? Do you have any hardware on your walls, ma? Cliff is right. Keep him out of the girlfight. You're heavy in these tweets, but I hope you're finding time to create music that backs up your buzz. Or you'll soon be begone like Kreayshawn. You young ladies today bore me. *Turns up Mia X CD* No Limit forever!

Mainstream America may be scared of Uncle Murda, but Mariah and Nick aren’t. Excuse the air conditioner, but after explaining his mini-hiatus, he talks about his relationship with Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon.
A few years ago, Mimi said she was a big fan of Murda’s single “Bullet Bullet”. At the 2:10 mark, he says he recently caught up with the couple and says he has yet to send over a present for their newborn twins. Murda luh da kids.
Jadakiss has always been revered for his lyrical prowess. He popularized colorful similes (I’m in the Aston Vanquish same color as dandruff) and spit one of the slickest basketball lines ever. Sam Cassell, what up?! In our final clip, Kiss pops his collar and speaks on his rhyme style. How dare you question his trendsetting? Look at what he brings to the table!
Surrounding the release of Jadakiss’ third album The Last Kiss, he said he was going to release a West Coast-inspired mixtape called, Kiss My Converse. Two years later, the project has yet to see the light of day. In this clip, he gives an update on the tape and says he will do a Southern version with Greg Street.
