Fabolous has responded to Kendrick Lamar’s “Control” verse.
“Brooklyn, we in this mothafucka tonight,” Fabolous says in a video that was released today (November 4).
“I’m a muthafuckin’ king in my city,” Fabolous says.
Then Fabolous addresses Kendrick Lamar’s “Control” verse.
“The thing about Kendrick saying he king, don’t ask me how I took it, nigga,” Fabolous says. “The real niggas know all the kings came from Brooklyn, nigga.”
On “Control,” Lamar referred to himself as a king of both coasts in Rap.
“I’m Makaveli’s offspring,” Lamar raps on the track, likely referring to Tupac’s 1996 release as Makaveli, The Don Killuminati (The 7 Day Theory). “I’m the King of New York, King of the Coast, one hand, I juggle them both.”
Lamar’s “King of New York” line was likely inspired by a 2010 selection, “Get Bizy,” which featured Kendrick Lamar, Terrace Martin, Bad Lucc and Kurupt.
“I’m important like the pope,” Kurupt raps on “Get Bizy.” “I’m the King of New York. I’m live from South Central. I’m a Muslim on pork.”
In August, Lamar spoke about the line during an interview with Los Angeles radio station Power 106.
“The irony of that line is that the people that actually understood it and got it was the actual kings of New York,” Kendrick Lamar says. “Me sitting down with them this past week, and them understanding that it’s not about actually being the King of whatever Coast. It’s about leaving a mark as great as Biggie, as great as Pac.”

I wonder how Kendrick gonna respond to this???
why would he respond to someone who took 3 months to not even respond?
By calling himself the ambassador of the Bay which will infuriate E-40.
Lame ass article
Get some teeth
king of ny
rakim
NEVER CLAIMED..WAS GIVEN..NOR WANTS IT..
HE IS ONE OF THE GODS..
“fabulous responds to kendrick” “hey guys im the king of ny”……what a response, straight murdered him, aint fab the same dude that got rocked by ray j?
lol that aint true but funny…
Nas is the king. He doesn’t even waste his breath on this ish
amen
word to the mutha
The king of bounced checks.
Is you.
One mediocre verse and hiphopdx has material for 6 months. I listened to that song twice, only because the way people were talking about that shit I thought for sure I had missed something. Jesus Christ peoples standards have dropped.
have you turned on the radio lately? ofcourse standards have dropped.
Nah, I avoid the radio at all costs. I feel like Jon Connor summed it up best on “The Peoples Rapper LP”
Is this what we come to?
I feel like all you niggas sat in one room
And said “Look, this is what we gon’ do
“whoever write a verse quick, come up with the worst shit
That’ll be the template for what we all work with
We’ll use this verse and do different variations
Give it to every station make ’em play it til you hate it
Matter fact – these shits will be in illest rotation
That way you won’t really have to know how to rap to make it
Play this shit so much the people’ll hate it til they love it
It’s the only shit we’ll play so the people’ll say “fuck it”
Let’s have a competition called Who’s Shit Can Be The Dumbest?
Let’s see who can make the most money sayin’ absolutely nothin'”
Make disposable rappers with disposable songs
That way, when they fall off you won’t even notice they gone
“Oh well, so long, nice to meet you, life goes on”
They just replace ’em with the next one who dyin’ to get on
what jon connor song was that?
‘Til I Collapse’, He did a whole mixtape over Eminem beats. It was surprisingly solid. Jon also did one over all Jay-z beats, I can’t think of the name of it offhand.
fab is the king of brooklyn on the low

Geez now Fabolous copying Meek Mill. Ok new trend now wait months later to respond. No matter how you many mofos respond (Papoose, JR Writer yup the Dipset guy he aint dead, Joell Ortiz, Fabolous & so forth) it aint going to ‘revive’ their mainstream career.
Loso Way 2 is Detox/Street King Immortal status
Fabolous got bodied by Ray J so he’s more like the chump from NY.
Kendrick was probably having a damn good time showing love for B’klyn at the Barclay’s Center with Lil Kim & Fab on Saturday
