To Da Break Of Dawn Is The Most Underrated Diss Record

[John Hull]

Cool J was in his bag on this one... styled on Kool Moe D, MC Hammer and Ice T at the same dam time! Just listen to it again and peep how many times this one record been sampled. Real heads recognize how many times L's vocals from this one diss been flipped by other rappers.

Genius butchered a lot of the lyrics on this shyt btw but it's still a good reference/starting point for those not knowing

Diss Kool Moe with the "Got the nerve to have them Star Trek shades on"

Called Ice T "a little Hip Hop Racc00n"

 

[Awesome Wells]

True.

It's always been one of my favorite diss tracks. L was in top form around that time. Whole album is classic.

 

[Big Mel]

Crushed Moe Dee, Hammer & Ice T's perm.



LL is so polarizing. On one hand he's probably THE rap archetype. On the other he's one of the lamest humans I've ever witnessed.

 

[Aje]

Why'd he go at those three?

 

[Big Mel]

Why'd he go at those three?

Really? Cmon man.

Really? Cmon man.

I don't know. That's why I'm asking.

 

[Big Mel]

I don't know. That's why I'm asking.

Moe Dee & LL is well documented. It's the Nas/Jay of the late 80s.-

Ice T dissed LL on 'I'm your pusherman', a record that got mad plays in NYC via Red Alert.


I don't even recall the Hammer shyt because who thinks about Hammer?

 

[Van Glorious]

truth

 

[Wacky D]

on the house party soundtrack as well.

 

[Travellin' Man]

True.

It's always been one of my favorite diss tracks. L was in top form around that time. Whole album is classic.

 

[Lord Mecca]

Crushed Moe Dee, Hammer & Ice T's perm.



LL is so polarizing. On one hand he's probably THE rap archetype. On the other he's one of the lamest humans I've ever witnessed.

 

[Newark88]

One of my favorite tracks (let alone disses) ever too

 

[Mike the Executioner]

A really underrated diss track. Killed three people on one song.

Also great because of how much it's been sampled. I recognized Ice Cube and Gang Starr samples from the first verse alone.

 

[chemicalsword]

ehh
Damn near every diss is about their looks


and Canibus ate LL

You're gonna hear a real ill paragraph soon
I took the cover right home to the bathroom
In the immortal words of L.L., 'hard as hell'
Your broad wears it well
She's the reason that your record sold a few copies
But your rhymes are sloppy
