The Game

California’s own The Game is never one to conceal his thoughts via social media. To respond to the recent “rap beef” occurring all over social media as of late, the Compton OG wanted to address the issue that seems to be appearing all over our timelines non-stop.

See The Game’s long Instagram rant about social media and alleged beef below.

So, this is what it’s come to these days ??? Outside of 2pac & B.I.G. dying because their beef got out of control due to the media blowing it out of proportion & us as people adding fuel to the fire with the whole East Coast/West Coast bullshit…. Hip hop beefs were healthy & consisted of rap battles between dope M.C.’s like the legendary KRS-One & Busy Bee beef, the Nas & Jay-Z beef, The Real Roxanne & Roxanne Shante beef, the Ice Cube & N.W.A. Beef, Bone Thugs & The Dogg Pound beef, G-Unit & Murder Inc, shit even me & 50’s beef & the list goes on…. Back when your whole neighborhood & city got behind you & supported you….. But now, so much of this bullshit going around, it’s even hard for me not to get sucked into this social media way of beefing…. & even though some of these memes be funny as fuck….. Why do they determine who won a rap beef ??? WTF happened to REAL hip hop & the classic way of handling rap feuds ??? Never thought I’d see the day when rap beefs were won over iPhone apps & shit. We went from learning from & respecting the O.G.’s to learning from & depending on I.G.’s lol…. Rap all fucked up & niggas is gettin more weird in this shit as the followers pile up….. But hey, since we fightin wit emoji’s these days… Thought I’d end my rant with mine [typewriter emoji] <------ now go flood baller alert or shade room wit it when they post this cause that's what it boils down to these days ? #KeyboardKillas ---> [keyboard emoji] #Ethyr #TheBridgeIsOver #TakeOver #Wanksta #NoVaseline #HitEmUp #300Bars to name a few…. #WillTheRealMCsPleaseStandUp
