Royce Da 5'9's younger brother Kid Vishis airs out his beef with Talib Kweli. The origin of which he explains below.
"#ForTheRecord I don’t personally know @talibkweli never been a fan, never been a follower.. Never really existed in my world. Appreciate anything he’s done in Hiphop but never been my style or preference. He called somebody who I follow on IG and someone who used to work for Heaven studio as an engineer a “Nazi” for disagreeing with him on some corny Shxt I’m NOT involved in about Climate Control. In response the guy called Kweli a “boy” which Mos Def doesn’t Fly 2023 a white guy calling a black man “boy”.. That person was made to apologize privately And publicly for it. Kweli didn’t accept the public or private apology which is his business and I have Nothing to do with this situation other than my studio affiliation with the engineer. However, @talibkweli began @ing my name and other people who I actually considered my friends names in posts non stop.. I received about 30 mentions from this stranger before I actually responded. In response I respectfully said we can have a dialogue about it no problem but your @ing my name into something I’m not involved in fam. @talibkweli response was More Disrespect, calling me a Nazi lover, Bootlicker, etc. My response l, “yeah ok man” and I didn’t say anything again til I seen he continued to slander my name and now is bringing Aliengang into it which is a community of super talented artists and supporters. I Still Didn’t Respond. He tried to @ people from Detroit and bash me but that didn’t work out in his favor. I stayed quiet. He then days later after another 30 mentions of my name i seen a post where he said, “why do I think Kid Vishis is so quiet? Cuz he Knows His Place”.. At this point it’s like a guy who I would slap to the floor in Real Life is trying to “Bully” me online lol! Nah bro. We not doin that. I told him if he @ me again disrespectfully, I’m gonna return All The Energy he has been giving me and give him the full show he’s asking for. @talibkweli response, “Nobody cares about your show Nazi Lover” So that when I started to return the disrespect. He also said I’m a trash rapper and he want AllTheSmoke Now we gotta see about that. Has nothing to do with the white guy that said “boy”
St. Paul, MN emcee Ken-C shows you how cold the Midwest can be in new single “Vanilla Ice.” Available digitally via all DSP’s now, this single is the first leak from forthcoming collaborative project with Rochester, NY’s Kidd Called Quest.
An ol’ school boom-bap party-rocking heat-rock of a single Quest said of their partnership “I was impressed by how versatile he is as an emcee. With each beat he would come up with concepts or ideas of the track quickly. Very excited to get this project out to the world.”
Ken-C has been releasing music over the past decade with a massive back catalog (available via Bandcamp). Kidd Called Quest in addition to his work as part of the duo Young Black And Gifted (with emcee Azariah) has been dropping soulful boom-bap work with such notables as Big Shug, Kool G. Rap, Pretty Bulli, Jae Hussle, Curtis Coke and many more.
Sacramento producer, Hi-DEF, returns with a follow up to his “Hugh DEFner” series, a collection of mashups/remixes over beats produced exclusively by him. This is only but a small portion of things to come. The full mixtape is dropping sooner than you think.
