The Butcher Says This Beef is Not Kosher

My twin brother Jon at hiphop anonymous, posted this story about Kay Slay speaking out against beef, which is rather like Colonel Sanders speaking out against chicken. :

DJ Tells 50 Cent, Ja Rule: One More Dis Record, Then Quit It
When a war of words is becoming too dramatic for the Drama King himself, maybe the situation is getting out of hand.

"If you have some other drama, I ain't gonna front, I'mma hit it," DJ Kay Slay said during his "Double Drama Hour" show on New York's Hot 97. "But this beef in particular with Ja Rule and 50, this is it for me."

The rivalry between Ja Rule and 50 Cent recently elevated on Slay's show, and if the mixtape don has his way, it will end on his show.

Three weeks ago, Slay premiered Ja's freestyle, which the streets have dubbed "Loose Change." In it, Rule comes at the Shady/Aftermath camp, Busta Rhymes, Lil' Mo and manager Chris Lighty. A retaliation came the next week via the Em and 50 freestyle "Hail Mary." Last week the saga continued when Kay played a new Benzino dis record aimed at Shady/Aftermath along with Ja's latest abrasive retort, "Guess Who Shot Ya."

Now Slay is saying enough is enough.

"I'm putting it out there for them, have one [more record apiece] made and take it out that way," Slay suggested. "There's no other way. People are harboring feelings and they need to put everything they got to say and feel on one last record. Get everything out and then just keep it moving. How many more ways can Ja Rule dis 50? How many more things can 50 Cent say about Ja Rule? Most of them records kind of channel through me, and I feel like they need to cut it out now."

This reminds of how Richard Pryor said he knew he hit rock bottom when even his own dealer said he was doing too much coke, and refused to sell him any more.

(BTW, the co-writer of that article is one of my oldest friends in the "hip-hop industry", Minya Oh. We both wrote for The Source wayyyyy back in the day, when it was still respectable.)

Coming here always puts a smirk on my face: "Colonel Sanders speaking out against chicken." Yea, that Kay Slay statement was not intelligent.

Kay Slay probably has the most juice right now to make a truce happen. Both camps have shown him plenty of respect.

BTW...when was the Source ever respectable?

Wow, that's really tragic if Mays and Benzino have tarnished the Source for so long that heads aren't even aware of what an important, pioneering publication it was in the beginning.

When the Source started out, under the leadership of Jon Shecter, James Bernard, and Reginald Dennis, it set a new standard for Hip-Hop journalism, it was truly the hip-hop bible. It would be a terrible shame if that chapter of history is blotted out by Mays/Benzino era.

It wasn't until 93 or 94 that Benzino's extortion of David Mays reached a point that it was severely compromising the magazine's integrity, which forced all those co-founders to resign in protest, along with many other staffers, including Minya (I had already left at that point).

I personally don't give a F**k about these beefs by major recording artists. I don't even know what's their "beef" anyway when all of them are making more than enough $$$ and most of them are exploiting hip hop by putting out sell out music anyway. Kay Slay should STFU because he is one of the person that's been fanning all of these BS beefs by BS artists and claiming fame from all of these "diss" tracks. So for him to say this doesn't make any sense to me. So the very thing that kinda put him on the "map", now he's going to purge it for whatever reason he may have? Whatever! In any case, these "diss" tracks are only good for a few laughs and nothing else. I mean, I will probably remember and listen to say... Pete Rock & C L Smooth's "TROY" forever, but who in the right mind will remember and listen to all these garbage after month from now, a year from now, or even a decade from now? Probably nobody. That just says it all about quality of these "diss" tracks anyway. It's all about their pity bullshit beefs and self gratification. I only listen to them to get a laugh to laugh at them, not with them. I detest person like Kay Slay, who seems to think putting out exclusive diss tracks are part of DJs skill?! Now trying to stop "diss" tracks, which he used to promote and put his name by? Come on, give me a break! What is he scared of now?

As to Source... I was never big fan of reading magazines, unless there were good amount of pictorials... But I do remember when Source used to cover more credible topics and it wasn't all about one person's (Benzino's)forum to make his dumbass points (have any of you seen some of the illustrations (posters) that came with recent Source? it's ridiculous!). I remember when they used cover real "unsigned hype" and did review some up and coming underground artists and albums. But now, it's worthless than toilet papers. Only Hip Hop related magazine I used to buy was Elemental... I haven't bought an issue for almost a year but they were (and are?) cope hip hop magazine. But I'm surprized that people are still buying Source when there's more advertisement in the entire magazine than actual articles. And those articles are not even worth reading anyway because they are so biased. But yes, Source was credible long time ago. It seems like things always seems to start out with good intention, only to go bad when they start making big money.

Posted by: Gn12 at April 28, 2003 04:49 PM

Gn12: That's not how you spell that word.. didn't you hear Ja's new record? It's spelled "MUREDR".

"it goes through slay, and you're gay"

err, I have no idea what that means. But I think Kay Slay should make that his new slogan. "If it goes through Slay, you must be gay!"

Posted by: jay smooth at April 28, 2003 05:28 PM

Yo,
Gn12 is trippin'. You see what s/he wrote:
"No more dis records by Meurdeur inc."
(I'm really LMAO)

But Jay, man . . . this is really f**kin' funny:
"If it goes through Slay, you must be gay!"
(I'm really, really LMAO)

It's official, Jay is the new and improved Drama King.

Ha! Ha! I can't stop laughing.

This is great reading . . .

Well, I dont know what is wrong with being gay.

I met Benzino when he was down here in San Francisco and have to say we are good close friends now. He is a good gal.

Yo Benz, much love from Frisco, I am Antonio, we had such a hot night you and me, man to man, and I got to say your ass is tight.

Benzino is my man, so hot and sexy I just want to make love to him one more time.
