“Joey Badass lit the fuse on January 1st with ‘The Ruler’s Back,’ calling out the West Coast and daring someone to respond—and respond they did. What started as a shot at regional pride spiraled into a full-on lyrical melee, with Ray Vaughn clapping back on ‘Crashout Heritage,’ Daylyt entering troll genius mode on tracks like ‘YHRR’ and ‘Ayo,’ and even REASON, AZ Chike, CJ Fly, and Jadakiss’ son JaeWon throwing their hats in the ring. From Joey’s ‘Pardon Me’ to ‘My Town,’ and Ray’s scorching ‘Golden Eye,’ the beef evolved into a coast-wide rap war, dragging in names like YG, Ab-Soul, and loaded bars referencing everyone from Kendrick Lamar to Diddy. It’s the kind of chaos that only hip-hop could birth—strategic, messy, and strangely poetic.”
