Papoose listened to the 15-second clip from Kendrick Lamar's 2013 BET Hip Hop Awards cypher verse and came away unimpressed.
Some believe K. Dot was taking shots at Drake, but Pap thinks the Top Dawg Entertainment emcee was actually firing at him instead.
Pap talked to XXL about the verse and if he plans to respond.
So you saw the Kendrick clip that came out from the BET Cypher?
Yeah, yeah, I was hearing about it a lot, and then when I actually clicked on that, I couldn’t believe that that was what everybody was making a big deal out of.
What was your reaction?
Oh, it was comical, man. I laughed.
A lot of people said he was going at you.
I agree with the people, I looked at the majority and they were saying he was going at me. So I agree with the listeners, I agree with the fans. They say majority rules, so I agree with the majority.
You’ve gone back at Kendrick in the past with a verse. Are you planning on that this time?
Yeah yeah, he can’t f*ck with me. He’ll never be able to shine my shoes, lyrically. So I’m just gonna be able to continue to prove that, to show and prove, like I did on “Control.” This is hip-hop, I love hip-hop, but I just want to continue to show and prove that he can’t fuck with me lyrically. You can look forward to that in my next release, straight up. I live in the studio, that’s my second home. So yeah, I’m definitely going to respond.
Who do you think will ultimately win this battle?

Pics After The Jump
Miley Cyrus is completely uninhibited when it comes to showing off her body. The twerking queen has had several racy photo shoots in the past several months.
Even her music videos for "Wrecking Ball," "23" and "We Can't Stop" probably can't watched if your boss is looking over your shoulder.
Her most recent photo shoot is for famed photographer Terry Richardson. If you're not familiar with Terry's work I suggest you check out his "Cake" video for Lady Gaga and Kate Upton's "Cat Daddy" dance clip, which has racked up over 18 million views.
His new Miley photo spread might be her most daring to date.
Peep a few of the pics below and let us know what you think it the comment section.

Where would the world be without social media outlets like Facebook and Twitter? There would without a doubt be less e-thugs and arguments.
The latest spat to pop off is between Miley Cyrus and Irish singer Sinead O'Connor, who found fame in 1990 after releasing a cover of Prince's song "Nothing Compares 2 U."
The beef started Thursday (October 3) when Sinead posted an open letter on Facebook to Miley warning her about being "pimped" by the industry
The music business doesn’t give a sh*t about you, or any of us. They will prostitute you for all you are worth, and cleverly make you think its what YOU wanted.. and when you end up in rehab as a result of being prostituted, ‘they’ will be sunning themselves on their yachts in Antigua, which they bought by selling your body and you will find yourself very alone.
Miley responded via Twitter by comparing Sinead to actress Amanda Bynes, who is currently in a mental institution suffering from schizophrenia.
Cyrus also posted tweets from Sinead's 2012 Twitter meltdown when she hinted at suicide, along with a photo of the singer tearing up a picture of Pope John Paul II during a Saturday Night Live performance in 1992.
O'Conner responded by writing another open letter on Facebook threatening to sue Cyrus if she didn't remove the posts from her Twitter account.
Miley… Really? Who the f*ck is advising you? Because taking me on is even more f*ckin’ stupid than behaving like a prostitute and calling it feminism. You have posted today tweets of mine which are two years old, which were posted by me when I was unwell and seeking help so as to make them look like they are recent. In doing so you mock myself and Amanda Bynes for having suffered with mental health issues and for having sought help.
I mean really really… who advises you? have you any idea how stupid and dangerous it is to mock people for suffering illness? You will yourself one day suffer such illness, that is without doubt. The course you have set yourself upon can only end in that, trust me.
I am staggered that any 20 yr old woman of the 21st century could behave in such a dangerous and irresponsible manner as to not only send the signal to young women that its ok to act like prostitutes but also to the signal that those who have suffered or do suffer mental health problems are to be mocked and have their opinions invalidated. Have you no sense of danger at all? or responsibility? Remove your tweets immediately or you will hear from my lawyers. I am certain you will be hearing from all manner of mental health advocacy groups also. It is not acceptable to mock any person for having suffered.
It is most unbecoming of you to respond in such a fashion to someone who expressed care for you. And worse that you are such an anti-female tool of the anti-female music industry. I hope that you will apologise to Amanda Bynes and to any person who has been wounded by your mockery of those who have suffered. And I hope that you will wake up and understand that you in fact are a danger to women.
Furthermore you posted a photo of me tearing the pope’s photo .. as if to imply insanity.. by doing so all you have achieved is to expose your staggering ignorance. I suggest you read The Philadelphia Report, The Boston Report, all the reports which will illuminate for you why that action of mine remains sane and valid. By mocking it you mock every child who suffered sexual abuse at the hands of priests and had it covered by the Vatican. You could really do with educating yourself, that is if you’re not too busy getting your tits out to read.
O'Connor continued the conversation in another Facebook post, mentioning legal action again.
Ms Cyrus has today posted tweets of mine which are two years old and which were sent when I was ill and seeking medical help. She has done this in an attempt to deliberately cause me harm and hurt. I wish to confirm that I am quite well and kindly request people cease e mailing me in the mistaken belief these are recent tweets. Ms Cyrus' lawyers will be contacted by mine regarding this matter. I confirm also that I do not at all support or condone the abuse or mockery of those who have been brave enough to openly discuss mental health issues. Mockery causes deaths. Period. It is an unacceptable form of bullying, no matter who it is doing the bullying.
The war of words ended (at least temporarily) when Miley tweeted that she didn't have anymore time to talk about the issue because she was preparing to host Saturday Night Live this weekend. She invited the Irish to meet her and talk it out in person.
The tweets mocking Sinead are still currently Miley's Twitter page.

Pusha T has not been afraid to throw shots at the Young Money camp in the past. He recently classified Lil Wayne's Dedication V mixtape as "trash."
In his new interview with Rap-Up he was more complimentary of Drake's Nothing Was the Same album.
"I think he's got some cool joints on there," Push said.
Despite the compliment King Push doesn't consider Drizzy as being competition.
"I don't think me and him are in the same lane," he said. "Like, I don't wanna do any of that. I think we're polar opposites. Polar opposites who can rap. The attitude of [my music] and the attitude of his, people wanna compare that. It's cool. I think it's good for hip hop. People always compare, but if you ask me, nah."

Lauryn Hill has been released from prison today after serving three months for tax evasion. The former Fugess rapper/singer drops the song "Consumerism" to coincide with her newfound freedom.
The song is available now on iTunes https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/consumerism-single/id719012403?ls=1.
"Consumerism is part of some material I was trying to finish before I had to come in. We did our best to eek out a mix via verbal and emailed direction, thanks to the crew of surrogate ears on the other side. Letters From Exile is material written from a certain space, in a certain place. I felt the need to discuss the underlying socio-political, cultural paradigm as I saw it. I haven't been able to watch the news too much recently, so I'm not hip on everything going on. But inspiration of this sort is a kind of news in and of itself, and often times contains an urgency that precedes what happens. I couldn't imagine it not being relevant. Messages like these I imagine find their audience, or their audience finds them, like water seeking it's level."
- Ms. Lauryn Hill
