yeah for the most part it was kurupt because of the callin out names track. kurupt said fukk DMX cause he thought he slept with foxy brown, but the rumor was that it was ja rule not dmx, hence the line

"And I don't know who the fukk you think you talkin to
but I'm not him, aight slim? So watch what you do"

and

"I'm tired of weak ass nikkaz whinin over puss
that don't belong to them, fukk is wrong with them?
They fukk it up for real nikkaz like my mans and them
who get it on on the strength of the hands with them, MAN"

also, in the second verse he took some shots at eminem because of a radio freestyle where eminem was mocking DMXs flow. You can see he is rapping about two different people at one point, the bolded is at Em

"First of all, you ain't rapped long enough
to be fukkin with me and you, you ain't strong enough
So whatever it is you puffin on that got you think that you Superman
I got the Kryptonite, should I smack him with my dikk and the mic?
Y'all nikkaz is characters, not even good actors
What's gon' be the outcome? Hmm, let's add up all the factors
You wack, you're twisted, your girl's a hoe
You're broke, the kid ain't yours, and e'rybody know
Your old man say you stupid, you be like, "So?
I love my baby mother, I never let her go
"

It was Kurupt I believe because he was beefing with him over Foxy Brown and this waaaaaaay before Nas/Kelis or even the idea that Nas and Carmen's situation was public like that. Plus X been down with Nas for a minute.

And while we're at it: No, DMX was not dissing Eminem on that record too, nor was Em dissing him on Forgot About Dre.
That was hot little internet rumor in 2000 (yes I actually remember this on SOHH's little rumour section they had back then)

Except for the wack part, this perfectly describes Nas' life at the time. :manny:
