Was listening to Takeover today and had a thought: I can't recall hearing any response from them (I'm sure there was one, I just can't recall it.) We all know the back and forth it sparked with Nas, the interviews, Ether, etc... For some reason I can't recall what Prodigy and Havoc's reply was. And those cats were straight street, especially Prodigy. I'm surprised those cats never took it to the streets

Prodigy responded on Crawling from the Infamy album, and that was the nail in the coffin because his response was so lackluster and uninspired.

he was dissing him throughout the Infamy album.

100% true, as one of the people who bought and enjoyed the album at the time. That was another reason people felt he lost though. It felt like Hov had fukked with dude's mind so much, it was all he could rap about.

Crawling was the song people decided to put up against Takeover as the official response though.

Dude was a shell of his former self at the time, so he never really had a chance. He had just come off of HNIC, so his fall off was attributed to Takeover. Havoc outshined him throughout the album for the first time.

Mobb Deep had a Jay-Z diss record in 2001 called "can't handle" but it's not on youtube.

They saw him walking past at a club, and P went to go hit him with a bottle but a rat ran by the bar and knocked the bottle over and when P went to punch him, he slipped on an ice cube and got surrounded by the police and Jay ran out the club
