Earlier in the week, it was reported that Seattle rapper Bingx was fearing for his overall safety after a rift between him and fellow Emerald City rapper Raz Simone allegedly prompted death threats to be left on his voicemail.
Word of the news has reached Simone and not only is denying any of the accusations, he reveals that is attention clearly lies elsewhere.
“Raz Simone expresses himself through music,” his label Black Umbrella tells HipHopDX in an official statement. “He put out a dope video called ‘Green Light,’ anyone that has not seen it should check it out. Since that video dropped nearly two months ago Raz has not acknowledged this individual. His focus is the release of Trap Spirituals, which is now available at razsimone.com. We know nothing about death threats, so we hope this is the last press release to keep the other rappers name relevant for being part of this ‘beef.'”
The direct acknowledgement may have not happened but the opening for the aforementioned “Green Light” video showcases a leaked portion of Bingx’s still-unreleased “Traffic” video which was preceded with a f-bomb. Around the time of the video’s release, he also posted a series of emails onto his Facebook page where he called the back-and-forth chatter and sneak dissing “tiring.”
Bingx (real name Chandler Hendrickson) also claims that Simone associate Fatal Lucciano attending one of his shows and attempted to take the mic from him own stage. Cavigold Records recently released a statement denouncing the ensuing drama.
Raz Simone’s new EP Trap Spirituals is currently available now.
Raz Simone? Isnt that the lil girl from the cosby show?
Weeeaaak….
Both these niggas trash! Almost as bad as “Nacho Picasso”. Yall rap scene fuckin weak. Give it up Seattle. Aint goin nowhere ever without some fuckin gimmick. Better ask Ol Uncle Macklemore.
I don’t think any of these guy’s represent the real Seattle. It is all show and entertainment to me but Seattle got talent beside’s these dude’s but I like that Green Light video.
This beef was fun while it lasted, but Bingx was really doing some shady stuff behind the scenes. Lyrically he has skills, but I could never take his version of the story or his labels support of it seriously. If death threats were made it wasn’t from Raz or Black Umbrella. You can’t be responsible for your own fans, but I’m sure they would have spoken up if they genuinly thought Bingx life was actually in danger. There was animosity but nobody was going to get shot over this ever.
Nacho Picasso at least those tracks with Deniro Farrar were aight and Trap Spirituals sounds dope, check you ears.
RAz is a phenomenal artist im from Seattle and am personal friends with him ive seen were he started to now and he has always stayed true to his artistry and doesnt do beef here is some free sauce if you from Seattle you and i both know real hip hop alot came from here 206 zulu
How can anybody be afraid of that queertard. Dude you want to send death threats? Let me know, I will personally send you my address, cell phone number and where I work. Let me know. Oh yeah, I carry guns bitch!
