Joyner Lucas and Skepta are at it again, fueling a cross-Atlantic rap feud that’s leaving fans on both sides eager for more. It all started when Skepta’s diss track ‘Friendly Fire’ landed, sparking Lucas’s fiery response.
Skepta fired the first shot with lyrics that aimed directly at Joyner Lucas. In ‘Friendly Fire,’ Skepta raps about his standing in the rap world, dismissing Lucas’s skills as inadequate compared to his own. Joyner didn’t hold back; he recorded himself listening to the track and simply said, ‘Alright, say less, my boy,’ teasing a swift comeback.
This feud traces back to Skepta’s bold claim that UK rappers surpass their American peers. Joyner Lucas seemed to take it personally, interpreting Skepta’s words as an open challenge. Meanwhile, Skepta responded in a casual tone, acknowledging Lucas’s bravery but sticking to his belief in UK supremacy.
Drake’s input only added fuel to the fire. He sided with Skepta, praising London rappers as the world’s best lyricists. Joyner Lucas found Drake’s remarks amusing, responding with nothing more than a laughing emoji on social media, showing his confidence despite the heavyweights against him.
However, this isn’t Joyner’s first dance on the battle stage. The rapper has a history of challenging other artists, notably calling out Meek Mill for a battle in the Ultimate Rap League. Joyner’s love for competition is clear as he expressed a desire to face off against someone equally talented yet inexperienced in the ring.
Although Meek Mill hasn’t responded publicly to Joyner’s challenge, the Ultimate Rap League appears keen on making this showdown happen. Joyner’s passion for lyrical battles highlights a vibrant side of hip-hop, where skills are tested and rivalries keep the genre alive and thrilling.
In the world of hip-hop, feuds like the one between Joyner Lucas and Skepta keep fans glued to their seats. With high-profile artists like Drake chiming in, the stakes are high, and the anticipation is immense. As the rap battles continue to stir excitement, fans can only watch and wait for the next lyrical volley.
