Picking up where we left off, Pete Rock has found a new sparring partner in Lil Yachty after blasting Young Dolph over his cocaine raps.
You’ll remember this post that the legendary producer made along with his diss towards the King of Memphis?
Today, Lil Yachty responded to Pete Rock, echoing Young Dolph’s sentiments of “fuck you” to the OG.
This shouldn’t be all that surprising, considering Lil Yachty recently said that he could not name five Tupac or The Notorious B.I.G. songs. His blasé attitude frustrated many in the Hip Hop community, including Anderson .Paak.
That post blasting Pete Rock was quickly deleted and the Lil Boat rapper had a change of heart.
Despite what the old heads are saying, Lil Yachty is making moves in today’s industry. He recently announced he signed to Quality Control, the home of Migos, Rich The Kid and OG Maco.
Meanwhile, Pete Rock is collecting his royalties from his work with Biggie, A Tribe Called Quest, Common, Nas and countless others.

Wtf is a “lil yatchy”????
It’s like a small schooner.
I’m not a big lil yachty fan but least he honest. He wasnt born in the biggie/2pac era so why expect him to name their material? He’s also making the kind of music that he’s comfortable making and that formula is working. @ the end of the day its his type of music that the mainstream is checking for right now so no matter how much you ridicule him, yachty will always be in the public eye. @ least Until the next flash in the pan rapper comes along and there’s a TON of them.
“He wasnt born in the biggie/2pac era so why expect him to name their material?” That’s a lame excuse. My little brother is only a few months older than Yachty is, and he knows Pac and Big’s material very well.
You sayin he wasn’t born in the Pac/Biggie era so he doesn’t need to know any songs is a terrible outlook. Do you think a new painter doesn’t know Picasso’s work. Same goes Fire the greats in anything. Davinci, The Beatles, Led Zepplin, Garth Brooks, Madonna, Curtis Mayfield, etc…it’s called respect for the greats. Takin s little bit of their extreme talents and applying it today. Yaughty, Dolph, Keef, uzi, all are talentless pricks who suck crotch and lick mud holes
Anyone who cares about their craft will study and learn from the people who started it or molded it. You think a person who plays classical music is not going to look up Beethoven? Or someone who’s learning to play guitar not gonna look up some of the greats in that genre? Rap is the only genre were shit like this exists. You can see from the way these fools talk and act that they won’t be here in the next 5 years. NO LONGEVITY! Rap has such a high turn over rates it’s shameful. No innovation breeds a bunch of non innovative talent/stans. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
that pete rock post abt lil yachty was up before the shit with young dolph. these “news” outlets are tryin to tie the whole shit together to make it seem like a story. whether or not a rapper is wack, that’s a matter of opinion. the initial issue that pete rock had, was young dolph rapping cocaine bars next to a little kid.
You crazy if you I this game you learn good crews and how can you not know of the greats before you bubble gum addwas born I see lil yachty i might catch a body too many fake niggaz winning
fuck all you old heads. y’all never let us do our thing. y’all always criticizing and nitpicking every little thing we do. it’s simple, if you respect what we do, then we’ll show respect back. until then, fuck off and let us run the show.
“y’all never let us do our thing” sounds like you whining homie. you aint get movie time on sat night with your friends cuz you messed up and weren’t home for the street lights came on….
thats what you call doing y’all thing??? Lmfao…fuck outta here with that bullshit. Y’all niggas wanna be rock stars not rappers. Go sing rock and roll then
If only y’all had talent we weren’t gonna bother you,don’t claim HipHop while you can’t even rap.
We would respect you if you went to school and could form coherent sentences in a song!!!
this nigga yatchy is trash. fuck him and whoever love him. real hip hop lives forever.
What the F*** is a lil Yachty? Because it sounds like a toy, an it’s too ignorant to now what that means. Don’t worry fam! No one will remember that fake-ass b**** in a couple months anyhow.
As the years go on the wacker the music and the dumber the fans, i don’t care what u listen to, listen to whatever u like, just don’t call it Hip Hop.
Being a fan of hip-hop these days is just pure embarassing.
It doesn’t matter what “Lil’ Whoever the Fuck” says because at the end of the day the truth is their body of work will not stand the test of time in music publishing. They will have no real royalties to collect and they WILL NOT hear their songs on a “Greatest Hits” compilation or used for movies and other publishing opportunities.
That’s not dissing or throwing shade that’s just being 100!! Make good music and things will be great for your catalogue and your career as you get OLD(ER) like you called Pete Rock…Well thats’ only if you make it that fucking far from all the drugs and other bullshit!!!
Show respect to the ogs before you dumb ass it’s called homage you idiot the paved the way that’s how Iknow I’m a blow up look for imrak real rap
@Lil Yachty: Young Dolph is older than me. Am I old too? Fuck you! Fuck your music! We ain’t fucking with you talentless bitches!
I know this isn’t fully related to this article, but I still call bullshit on Lil Yachty not hearing any Tupac or Biggie songs. So he’s saying he’s never at least heard their biggest hits being played, not just on radio, but anywhere? He doesn’t know songs like Hypnotize, Dear Mama, Juicy, Big Poppa, Keep Ya Head Up, How Do You Want It, California Love, Mo Money Mo Problems? Bullshit!
fuck biggie dat fat fuck shoulda died sooner, nigga its Deathrow westside badboy killa for life RIP POOCHIE WILLIAMS & FREE SUGE KNIGHT
The generational divide in hiphop is interesting to watch because that’s a part of the essence of hiphop “fuck you, I’m doing me and I know what I’m doing.” Everyone does it but some people have the talent and are right and some people are wrong af. The main issue is that “back then” there was a way to filter out the garbage acts and today, because of the internet, there is no filter. The older guys are mad because they feel like they paved the way for the new guys to get checks and the new guys feel like they are doing it all on their own.
This ain’t rocket science and don’t even have to do with generational issues/divide.
These niggas really can’t rap, like at all. How y’all mad at Pete Rock cause you can’t rap?
Yachty mad cause Pete Rock told the truth. Dude is wack.
Pete Rock couldn’t freestyle more than TWO bars in that Sprite commercial and has never been able to freestyle as long as Lil Yachty did in that IG clip.
So many so-called “heads” are quick to forget.
are you retarded?? freestyle?? pete rock is known as a legendary producer as well as emcee & dj. freestylin has never been his forte, do your fuckin homework youngin. Pete is a triple OG veteran and has made countless classics not just on his own albums either but on other legendary emcee’s work such as nas’s illmatic. kids these days have all the tools to do their research and are still too fuckin lazy to do it. shame on you, goof.
YOUNG AND DUMB BUT U LOVE THIS MUSIC SHIT RIGHT ????? NIGGA DO HOMEWORK BRUH BEFORE U EVEN THINK ABOUT COMING FOR ONE OF THE PIONEERS OF THIS TRUE ” HIP-HOP ” SHIT. HES PROBABLY THE REASON WHY YOUR FAVORITE MC RAPS U DUMB MUTHAFUCKKA. I HATE THESE YOUNG DUMB ASS NIGGAS WITH NO KNOWLEDGE OF THIS MUSIC SHIT
And guess what? Those two bars he dropped on that commercial are better than anything Lil Navy Man has done so far.
Pete Rock is also not a rapper, hes a producer. This little shit is supposed to be a rapper. How the fuck can he not do what hes professionally being paid to do?
Lil Yachty, just keep your bitch ass wack ass mouth shut. You look like a CLOWN and you ain’t shit, homie.
Did they just called YOUNG DOLPH the king of memphis? three 6 should blow the whole headquarters to “hiphopdx” up. ignorant ass hype beast rap blog.
