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”
