You realize this all stems from Hoey calling out a whole coast right? And NY isn't the whole East Coast btw, Jersey and Philly aren't catching strays, it's just the dead apple getting composted


Didn't he call out Kendrick? He said in the song he's got love for the West.

He said "too much west coast dikk licking" that's what set this off, this is just like LL and Tim Dog hating on the west for no reason other than jealousy, if Hoey just called out Dot I dont think you would see as many LA/LA County artists jump in it the way they did, at the end of the day competition is good for hip hop and NY could use some light on them so personally I think this is good for everyone involved, although everyone is rhyming over some soft ass beats which is kinda making this whole thing underwhelming to keep it a buck, I find Hoey and Papoose to be grating to listen to but Saigon would be cool to jump in on this or maybe Maino. Either way none of this is really that serious, this ain't the east/west blown outta proportion beef of the 90s

Wish guys like Banks or Lox can jump in but they might be past battling. Even Griselda.

Banks and Lox would kinda be like Dot responding, its punching down to a degree, Joey isn't on Dot level to get a direct response, and while I fukk with Reason and Ray they've gotta bump around on the proving grounds before Lox or Banks should be battling with them, realistically it doesn't make sense for anybody besides other Pro Era dudes to even Junp in this because it's an outta left field bait battle that Joey kicked off, really this is just Joey trying to take shots at the throne but him and dot are not even in the same atmosphere, it's all in good fun anyways as we can see from Joey and Soul interaction on that RedBull cypher.

It could cause a domino effect, but it probably is unlikely. It all depends if some of these guys are ready for battle.

I actually thought the joint Joey just dropped with Lux was pretty good but imo after Goldeneye this shyt is over, Ray left him nowhere to go because its true that Troy was calling ya dead best friend Splat Man and you ain't do shyt, the best Hoey could come up with against Ray was jabs calling him gay which theres no truth to but it's a fact Hoey and Puff were spending a lot of quality time together, I applaud Hoey for jumping in the ring but he just got knocked the fukk out word to Smokey
