In case you hadn't heard yet, the latest beef on the music scene is between Diggy Simmons and J Cole. Why? Because J Cole apparently said he had a "thing" with Diggy's sister, Angela. My question is this: why is there always beef in the music industry and why is it always the small small guys who want to make the loudest noise?
Whenever something like this happens, everyone jumps to the conclusion that it's a publicity stunt. With Tulisa's sex tape it was "oh, her single's coming out soon", but not being funny, that little sex tape would not persuade me to buy Tulisa's single and Diggy's diss track, would not prompt me to buy his album. I don't even think you can use "publicity stunt" as a reason behind any celebrity doing anything.
Beef in the industry goes back years. I'm not going to pretend I follow it all or that I even listen to every artists music but the one war I wasn't happy to hear about, was Drake vs Ludacris. Anyone that knows me knows I love Drake and I absolutely love Luda. At first I didn't even want to hear the diss tracks but as a fan of both artists, I caved in and had a listen. Personally, I felt that Drake should have kept quiet. At the end of the day, Luda has been here for how long? He's released how many albums? Where's the respect please? Drake just needs to sit down and I actually felt the same about his beef with Common. I don't even listen to much Common but come on!! Drake; please don't do it.
I kind of feel the same about this Diggy beef. It's not necessary. His sister is surely old enough to fight her own battles, if what J Cole even claims is true. Saying that though, my younger brother will always have my back, so I suppose on the flip side, defending your sisters honour, isn't such a bad thing.
Anyway have a listen to the diss track, link below.
