Bun B, A$AP Rocky, Hopsin Respond To Trinidad James

[Mad Good Dro]

Trinidad James' controversial comments about Atlanta running New York recently continues to be a topic of discussion.

If you missed it, the Atlanta rapper performed at the Converse Rubber Tracks concert in NYC recently, and essentially said that the New York hip-hop scene fallen off, while declaring the South's dominance. Maino has expressed his stance over the comments, demanding an apology. Now, here's a few others.

Los Angeles-based Hopsin recently spoke with XXLMag.com, where he offered his opinion on James' status in rap, calling him the worst... ever. "Trinidad James is the most garbage piece of rapper that has ever existed on the face of the Earth," he said. "His opinion is like a newborn baby saying it's the king of the world, as far as fighting and it would whoop Bruce Lee's ass. Like, c'mon now. What do you know about anything?

"Atlanta might be making moves and all that," Hop continued. "There may be rappers who come out of there, but that doesn't matter. It doesn't mean that they are dope. If you break down the real formula, a lot of the dudes coming out there ain't even really dope. They just got beats that bang. It's the same sh** that's repetitive. That's what the industry likes and that's what being signed. It doesn't mean it's f***ing dope. Go bar and bar. Put somebody a capella. Play one of their a capellas. Look at their lyrics. It ain't changing nobody's life. They ain't doing nothing. They are not impressing anybody. It's just the beats."

In an interview with MTV's RapFix Live, Bun B and A$AP Rocky also offered their opinion on it.

"It's not really about who run what," A$AP said. "Everybody got its time, but people don't want to enjoy that until it's gone."

"We can't be critical, too critical of situations because we have to keep everything in its proper perspective," Bun B offered. "Hip-hop started in New York, so if you're an emcee... you're already trying to be like New York, so it don't make sense for somebody to say New York tryin' to be like them. We're all students of the culture. We're all taking in information and giving it back out. It's just starting to look different than maybe it looked originally. It's starting to sound different than maybe it sounded originally. I can understand his viewpoint. There's some validity to that, but that's happened in hip-hop before, where other regions have been so enamored by what's happening from here, that we want to be a part of it."


Rising New York rapper Action Bronson also offered his take, via Twitter on Wednesday (Nov. 13), writing (@ActionBronson): "U shouldn't ever run ur mouth then back pedal. Say what u mean. DO NOT INVOLVE ME WITH DISGRUNTLED NY RAPPER TALK IM OUT HERE GETTING IT AND IM SO COZY. Thank u in advance."

Bronson was one the artists Trinidad James would later reference as those "keep it real in NY and get no support," when he later clarified his statements via Twitter.

People not getting Trinidad's Rant, the nikka said the south runs new york, and thats all they see and hear, he follows that remark with naming underground ny rappers he feel should be bigger than they are, yet the city not behind em, yet promoting nikkas who biting the south sound.

Trinidad is a fan of ny music, he comes to new york and all he hear's atlanta sound vs nikkas he fukk with smoke dza, action bronson, troy ave and others, who should be all over ny radio. Trinidad is consumer like everybody else, he is in atlanta, listenin 2 the troy aves, dza's, actions etc

Get to the big apple, and the system supports everybody else but home team. He sits back listens to the breakfast club and ebro and cipha nem bring Troy and other ny mcs to their stations, and be on they dikks about real hip hop all while bringin Trinidad up, for the cliche problem with the industry convo, those artist leave, nothing from their album get played, same stations keepin the bullshyt in rotation, nothing change.

Trindad comes for his promos, they suckin his dikk, wanna play etc, Trinidad starts callin em out, they play crazy,. Webbie's interview a couple days ago, if you pay attention, Webbie was low key putting the breakfast club on blast, envy started the interview off not knowing the release date, Webbie knows them nikkas aint finna play his shyt, thats why kept sayin the date, he even says yall nikkas got me up here knowin i paid good money for these promos and envy got the date wrong and callin me boosie.

nikkas may think the south slow, but those nikkas pay attention to alot of the shyt east coast nikkas do, all of em aint friendly like Bun-b and give cliche answers, when they keep it real and speak the truth, all of sudden its problems. These southern nikkas know they talk behind their back, but kiss ass when they in their city, New York values itself on its so called clean cut image, bein the mecca, home of the apollo, city full of Harvey Dents, thats why alot of em 2 facted.

i feel you. if you take away him being a rapper, he's just a disgruntle fan of New York hip hop. BUT because he's a rapper............. a garbahe rapper at that, niccas are appalled. Also the fact that he said "WE run yall" including him as a dominant force put a target on his back

They also feel like since he is a garbage rapper he a easy target, and if you look at maino's track record of beefs in the industry from big sean to yung berg, he picks on easy targets

remember talked slick about trinidad james, and trinidad let it be known

"I don't consider it a diss. I'm from the streets so a n*gga talking is like a n*gga talking. A n*gga punching, you don't like me, then you fight me. That's why I make the songs to let you know, if you don't like me, then you can fight me. I'm never going to diss you back, we gonna throw these hands back and forth. That's all this is about."

u aint heard shyt else from joe

maino prolly think trinidad a easy target, trinidad ugly for a reason he more than likely can handle his own, one reason he told maino to quit typin and call em him like a man

This is nice and all but you ignoring the fact that if all of what you said is what he wanted to inform, then he chose the absolute WORST word choice in history to get it across. It's not even clear in his weak ass tweets if he was sincere. Dude fukked up, and was cocky. Trying to get the same amount of attention he is now.

no he didnt, 26 yrs old and a grown ass man he has the right to say whatever he feels like,and he didnt retract his comments, the fukk he gonna beat around the bush for?

 

[FreshAIG]

Trinidad James talking about NY rap fell off is the equivalent of the 12th man on an NBA team talking shyt to Kobe Bryant.

Imagine Fab Melo telling Kobe Bryant "What the fukk happened? You used to be nice. You falling off boy. We running you nikkas"

Kobe probably throw a chair at his head. Who the fukk is he to speak on Kobe?

Just like who the fukk is Trinidad James to speak on NY rap. He's the worst MC ever
