Ludacris is firing shots at Big Sean and Drake in a new skit and song off of his mixtape, 1.21 Gigawatts: Back to the First Time.
"History Lesson" and "Bada Boom" take aim at the rappers, in particular Big Sean for claiming he fathered the "Supa Dupa" or "hashtag flow"
“With the super duper flow, I created that one word rhyme style,” Big Sean told MTV back in March 2011. “Drake really made it more popular, but Drake gave me the credit and was like I really got that from Big Sean. I think some artists just did it so wack man. Every time I say names I get in trouble and it’s like I’m dissing, but some people used it wack. If he said Ludacris used it wack, hey. Don’t get it wrong I’m not trying to dis Ludacris or nothing,” he explained. “He’s a great MC. But even though that that style that got so overused, there was a lot of people who did it great and there was a lot of people who didn’t do it so great. People always ask me was you mad that people took that style from you. I’m like, ‘Nah, that went and shows me how far I can go as an artist.’ I feel like I changed hip-hop. I haven’t even dropped an album yet. So that goes to show me how powerful my mind is.”
Drake also addressed that particular flow in an interview with AllHipHop back in June 2010.
"I don’t want to offend somebody…I hate that rappers picked that flow up. I wish they had left that for people that know how to use it. [They go like] “It’s a parade! MACY’S!”
That was a direct shot at Luducris, who said that line on the song "My Chick Bad"
“Couple girlfriends and they a lil' crazy/Coming down the street like a parade, Macys,”
Whether they meant to offend or not, it seems they did. Although Ludacris doesn't mention them by name, in this new world of subliminal rap disses, this one is pretty clear cut.
“I’m the truth in this booth and you n*ggas all hoes,” Luda raps on “Bada Boom.” “Counterfeit rappers say I’m stealing their flows, but I can’t steal what you never made up b*tch/ Y’all some duplicate rap cloning n*ggas/I manufacture you hoes put on your makeup b*tch. Let me explain, aint been nothing new since Big Daddy Kane/Flows will get recycled, passed around to different names”
He later went in further.
“May not like the way I used it, but you know you ain’t invent it, boy/Do your research before you make a claim so bogus that’s disrespecting pioneers in the game.”
Will Drake or Big Sean reply?
