Jay Rock’s Westside Connection

On Tuesday, Ice Cube addressed his critics on his blog:
Jay Rock let his fingers do the talking and responded to the entry late tonight via his Twitter account.
Bang. Bang.
Im Glad somebody said something. Crooked I threw stones and hid his hands, Jay Rock wasnt disrespect Cube, at the same time Man’ed Up. Props to him for that, Gudda Muzic was slept on
Jay Rock wants attention.
he didn’t have a problem with Cube, but Glases MAlone, Crooked I & BIshop Lamont were all doing the CD called No Country For Old Men to diss old WectCoast rappers and it included Cube in a bif way. The cat getting at Cube on the project was mainly G Malone, Crooked I, Crooked I was going at Snoop hard. A song was even leak.
So what these youngster talking about? they wanna wave white flag now? they started this.
The crazy thing is, that project even subliminally took shot at Dre. Didn’t understand that when Bishop was signed to him.
This had nothing to do with Jay Rock. Cube address all new west artists cause they all been complaining about the OG artist like they owe them something so that’s how Cube addressed it.
Cube in the right. They in the wrong.
Expect “No Vaseline prt 2” now.
cube didnt even say shit about “new west” so jay rocks paranoid ass needs to calm down.. if i was him i wouldntve even addressed cube if i know i never said anything about him so obviously he wasnt talkin about me.. but i guess he feels he is nothing more than a local rapper so he has to jump to conclusions
“what’s up with these local MC’s in L.A. who keep disrespecting me?”
-Ice Cube
@Jay Rock
nigga if you never disrespected Cube then why are you responding? obviously he ain’t talkin’ to you nigga. it’s all in the context clues. ol’ sensitive ass nigga.
^^^
he wants attention.
notice how Cube called em’ “local” lmao (thats a shot fired too)
ICE CUBE is the muthafuckin man hands down. That Hollywood $$$ is the only reason he fell back from rap. Any “local” West Coast nigga who diss Cube is a fool.
HE’S TALKIN ABOUT GLASSES MALONE… STOP HAVING THESE SENSITIVE RAPPER EGO’S. BUT I FUCKS WIT JAY ROCK… SO 100, PEACE AND LOVE.
Internet gangsta…
It is what it is…..I understand where J’rock is coming from but again…if you said nothing then you shouldn’t have took that angle. If anything he should have just cleared up that he’s not a part of the bullshit that some of the younger emcees are apart of. Cube should have said names though. It’s all dumb shit for anyone to try to discredit what Cube means to the west or Hip Hop in general. I mean, Glasses Malone? Really? Crooked I? C’mon….why even speak on another rapper. They wanted this.
He obviously got some kind of problem with Cube, Ice didn’t call no names and he didn’t have to, who ever disrespected him knows who the are, BUT Jay Rock just let off the first shot by saying WHY DON’T HE STOP BEING SCARED, Ice cCube said what he said and Jay Rock just bit the wrong persons BAIT when he should’ve just kept it inside his circle.
TWITTER CAN FUCK UP YOUR CAREER. Why would you say something that direct and
controversial on twitter(worldwide) why not atleast wait till you get on the radio or keep it to
yourself. People can retweet, favorite it, send it, and take it out of context.
BIG 110 is right.
Glass Malone the main dude going at Cube. He even had the nerve to claim Cube scared of him.
Funny enough Glasses Malone is signed to Mack 10 who Ice Cube is not feeling. Cube said Mack 10 has to kiss his pinky before they can do another record. Of course there was that project with the intent
[…] O’shea was talking about Jay Rock at all, but I could see where he was coming from. Spotted @ Double R. Share & […]
make some history before u speak on a legend, not smart move…
Cube is a legend, these new niggaz need to calm the fuck down… Cube didn’t name no names but if the shoe fits wear it… I guess Jay Rock feels like the shoe fits him, but honestly I’m from Cali and I don’t know anybody checkin’ for Jay Rock… and fuck G Malone, that dude is garbage
i interviewed glasses about a year or so ago…he said some shady shit about cube…i havent listened to his music (personally….not professionally) since.
he talking about Glasses Malone Glasses was in a video with Joe Buddens saying how he met Cube and Cube was scared of the Niggas Glasses was with
all In all Jay Rocc need to shut his fuccing mouth nigga did you say anything bad about cube for him to say that no so why are you involving yourself something that dont pertain to you
he didnt even say New West he said Local La Rapper that could be CJ Mac or Kilo or ras kass he never said new he said “Local”
Jay Rocc loses alot of points for this Fucc That Nigga becuz He trying to get involved on some publicity shit I can see if the Nigga Cube said New West Artist but he Said Local there are Local la Rappers that has been in the rap game for years
Yea so maybe that nigga Jay Rocc need to enrol himself bacc in Locke High And Learn to read or maybe he consider himself to be a local artist
cuz real Talk if it Aint Nipsey or THe lil Nigga Casey Veggies the rest of them New west can eat a dicc
and Crooked I is not New West Cuz been on since like 2001 niggas need to stop putting him in that category he was on the cover with Lupe Saigon and Rich Boy thats not New
but yea Glasses Malone is Garbage That nigga look like Bowser from fMario
Y’all gotta READ the WHOLE blog entry. he states that Newer isn’t always better..which is a shock to me cuz the New west is the shit as far as Nipsey, Jay, Game, Bishop not to mention Pac Div & K-Dot. bottom line niggas need to stop looking for OG’s to put a stamp on them and get the people. thats who matter at the end of the day.
Jay Rock doesnt give a fuck about this whole thing, all he wants is stir up some shit for Cube and get some attention.
Besides, he wack.
@Riccy Retardo
he wasnt calling out youngsta on that part he was saying what the New Rappers should do
Like I said anybody can be a local LA Rapper
its obvious he talking about Glasses and if Glasses still consders himself to be New West then he should just retire right now
but the fact is that Jay Rocc has no reason to involve himself in that
Cube is worth Millions cuz got like Tony Yayo says it cuz got that Ninja Money he has no reason to be scared of anybody that nigga got enough money to take out Jay Rocc and Glasses Whole Family
and Game is not New West cuz been on for a minute Now
Don’t worry, A VERY DISRESPECTFUL DISS IS ON THE WAY JAY….
i mean come on Cube started the whole West Side hand signal in Rap *looks at the Jay Rocc Pic above* SMFH
Fucc that nigga cuz music is not that good
if it was Nipsey or Bishop Yea but come Jay Rocc what was the last banger he had what classic Mixtape has he put out
I mean thats why Niggas say Nipsey got Next on the west becuz he not focusing on No Beefing he just putting out Classic Mixtapes what was Jay Roccs Last Mixtape period Nipsey not focusing on interview and bullshit documentaries (like Turnt Up) anymore he releasing Music Man the last thing I heard from Jay rocc was that stupid ass Mary J Blige remake
i fucks with Rock
period
Cube needs to deal with this in the background all those statements he released should of kept it to himself cAuse he ruining that new west everyone helping eachover vibe he should be disappointed
JAY ROCK IS TRIPPIN, I THINK HES A DOPE ARTIST AND HAS A GOOD FUTURE AHEAD FOR HIMSELF, BUT AT THE SAME TIME HE AINT EVEN DROPPED AN ALBUM YET, ONLY GOT 1 SINGLE, AND REALLY AINT EVEN ESTABLISHED HISELF AS A ARTIST. ICE CUBE IS A FUCKIN LEGEND, IF WASNT FOR CUBE JAY ROCK PROLLY WOULDNT BE RAPPIN. PERIOD. DUDE IS WAAAY OUTTA LINE TO EVEN COME AT CUBE LIKE THAT. A NIGGA GET THE XXL COVER, AND THINK THEY THE SHIT!!! LOL HOMEBOY EGO WAAAYY OUTTA CONTROL ALREADY. I MEAN ICE CUBE??? COME ON NOW!!! LEGEND, PIONEER FOR THE WEST COAST, HE BASICALLY THE WEST ON THE MAP!! JAY ROCK NEEDS TO CALM DOWN AND COME BACK 2 EARTH AND HELL BE STRAIGHT. IF ANYHING HE NEEDS TO TAKE POINTERS AND ADVICE FROM CUBE CAUSE HES ACOMPLISHED EVERYTHING THERE IS TO DO IN MUSIC AND ENTERTAINMENT INDUSTRY IN GENERAL. LIKE I SAID I THINK JAY IS DOPE, BUT COMIN AT ICE CUBE IS A LITTLE OUTTA LINE SEEMING THAT HIS CAREER IS JUST STARTING.
this is ridiculous. I keep saying it, never disrespect a vet/pioneer unless you absolutely have to unless there was a blatant attack at you personally. these fools aint on Cube’s level. just cut it out, make your music and just pray that those who paved the way for you appreciate it but if they don’t they have that right if they feel you not reppin right.
Jay Rock is dope… been bumpin his shit since Lift Me Up back in 07… but he needs to focus on him! He is just starting his journey, Ice Cube has over 25 years in the game… Thats where Rock wants to be at, I just hope he doesn’t pull the Canibus move, and go at him…. B/c Cube will fry him!
Cube really shoulda really just said some subliminal shit once and left it. He’s put out to much bait now and clearly say “new west niggas” or however he put it would make it seem like he’s targeting more that just glasses. But that shit is the problem with the age divide in rao and society though. The older ppl say fuck the up and coming and the youth saying that old nigga ain’t shit. That kind of mentality makes everyone and everything competition when we should be coming together.
Besides, he wack.
^
cube nor jay rock are wack
The fucks wrong with all you niggas biggin up Cube? The niggas a fuckin actor. He’s 40 something years old still trying to bring beef as promotion for his upcoming album and the niggas starring in kids movies. That aint Ganster. I woulda said we dont believe you you need more people, but you goddamn hip hop sheeple havent had an original thought in ya heads in years. If Cube says it its the word of god to y’all. Cubes been lame, I fuckin said it, The nigga need to stay in his acting lane now and not fuck up anymoe of his legacy
Jay Rock should b reading the response to the blogs Aline and realize this not a good look for him. I know he feel gangsta enough to bring beef and handle cause he street, blood etc.
That maybe so, maybe he can pull heat on Cube on Crenshaw or something then that’ll make him feel hard but after all that the public will still choose Cube over him n not have a career.
Also, cube ain’t no sucker now. The street stuff is whaterver for him considering he paid out the wazoo.
So I think J Rock need to consider his career in this one. He just won’t win against Cube with public then Chbe will mollywhop him lyrically. At least on a diss song,
Co-sign Queenz… There is no need to disrespect a pioneer that helped put West Coast Rap on the map.
Ice Cube’s main target in that comment was Glasses Malone.. Back in the day, G. Malone had a bad experience with Ice Cube and he has been dissing him ever since.
Yeah, I think Cube’s blog is more directed towards Glasses just off the lil story he had of when he met Cube. For yrs wen Crooked I was saying that the OGs on the west need to show love to the new cats,I felt where he was coming from but me,myself,Ima “go out and get it” nigga, And I felt like thats what Crooked & Glasses etc shouldve done in the 1st place. NEVER depend on somebody else to get you somewhere. In the music game or in life period. That especially applies to the 100s of cats on the West thats waiting for Dre to sign they ass.
And this is another reson that I skip a lot of these non-talented Dudes out here. You can Not compete with Cube’s catalog. Cube’s single will get burn then minute we get it because he has shown that he’s quality Goods. Jay Rock, Not so Much. To come out his mouth on this is ridiculous. As far as Glasses, Beach Cruiser has been coming soon for Years. That should be a Hint to you. I wanna support their movements but it starts with the Music 1st. Stop listening to ya Homies and Ya Hood and Other Rapper, They’ll tell you anything. Listen to the Consumer
Fuck Glasses Malone and fuck Mack 10! Bitch ass niggas
This has probably been said, but nothing good can come from this on both sides. Must have caught O’Shea on a bad day…this is beneath a hall of famer…and Jay, while a good rapper, should concentrate on elevating his career…Elevation…
THIS NIGGA SAYS HE GOT A BIG ASS GUN ON TWITTER!!!! BUHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!! THESE TWITTER THUGS I TELL YA!!!!!
DON’T HATE ON MY OPINION!!!!
Jay nice but still a little raw. Nipsey is that dude now. Jay’s team needs to follow Nipsey’s crew and get off the street mentality when it comes to making this paper. That Omarion shit was a real bad look too for Jay. Dumb ghetto thinking will ensure short paper everytime. Yea, Cube shoulda been less subliminal. But it’s obvious Cube could give a fuck about any of these up n comers. Unilike Dre and Snoop, we aint never seen Cube help or support nobody but Cube. Truth Will Out!
after reading all this i see all points but in reality cubes been on some bullshit and all hes concerned about is money. he fucked with game cuz game could make him more money. he did that memory lane song and told eric he would be there for lil eazy…ya i never saw that happen, imagine what a cameo from cube on eazys sons track could have done for him? where is he now?
the thing that really gets me if the fact that cube isnt even nice as an mc any more, and hes talking like hes still spitin “bird in the hand” im just barley getting into jay rock, he could do well in time and posibly be what game should of been instead of raps wwe soap opera star. but im glad jay rock spoke out on it cuz there is more going on behind the scenes then just what every one sees on the net, and truthfuly something needed to be said.
death certificate is my favorite album ever and i grew up on these dudes but enuf is enuf they arnt as great as they were and sit on pedastools of bullshit and need to get over themselfs. if the west was to unite like thses new cats are trying to do we could do it big but this crab in a bucket mentality just keeps prolonging the advancement and once again segragating rap.
its jay motha fuckin rock nigga what it do all red chucks yellin out suuuwooooop
is this guy for real?wack ass nobody jay the gay if you,ve got a death wish i think its about to come true?there,s a reason nobody goe at mr jackson and i think our about to find that out the hard way pussy and what makes it even worse is it will probabley be somone fom your on hood that does you! ice cube is gangsta rap he is the founder the c.e.o if you like!do you ever pray to god jay cos your about to meet him muthafucka ha ha ha……………..
