Post Malone found himself in the Twitter crosshairs of Tennessee duo Starlito and Don Trip this weekend, this after a tweet taking a shot at the “White Iverson” rapper went public. Malone and Starlito got into a heated exchange with Don Trip batting a little cleanup for his partner later down the line.
The tension between the two acts took hold initially after a HHDX interview from earlier this month with Starlito and Don Trip revealed that Starlito took some issue with Malone’s “White Iverson” smash and likened it to cultural appropriation and even suggested elements of blackface. Further, Don Trip released a song, “Allen Iverson” and mentioned in the interview that he’s never heard Malone’s track while Starlito went on his aforementioned diatribe.
The swipe Starlito took on Saturday appeared after Malone posted a photo alongside the actual Allen Iverson with a gleeful expression and caption, which Starlito retweeted and adding a caption reading, “Plot Twist: Bubba Chuck snuffed him & will be wired $3M Tuesday a.m. when banks re-open #extortion #reappropriation,” which got a fair share of retweets.
Malone fired back with, “[L]ol wish i had 3 million to wire” and that prompted Starlito to turn up the heat writing, “Bric can’t save you.. Iverson would never self-deprecate in the face of a difference of opinion or slight. You owe Twin nem outta H-Town too.”
The entire exchange can be read below, including Don Trip defending his Stepbrothers partner after Malone tried to dig at Starlito’s record sales in comparison to his.
Let him make his music lol. I dont even listen to him except maybe a couple songs I heard. Who gives a rat’s ass about anything. He’s making music let the man do it. At worst, he just referenced AI in his song in a positive manner who cares smh
He put out some positive sh!t and it’s better than most of the bullsh!t rap music out right now and they mad…. Drop some good positive music then talk noise. Go talk trash to all the garbage ass rappers making bullsh!t music destroying our communities, children, and ears.
Post is the biggest culture vulture out of anybody in the industry smh.
Says the guy over the internet invented by white people
Goes to show your colors. This is the world wide web (part of the internet, not the same thing), which isn’t “white culture” (whatever that is).
Yeah right. Everything invented by blacks is for Blacks only and everyone else is a Culture Vulture but when Someone else inventing something its for everyone. Lame Excuses as always. Didnt expect less from you
IDK man you ever heard of riff raff?
This Down syndrome lookin idiot and Paul Wall are two of the most cringe culture vultures to come outta Texas
I’m guessing you are not from Texas because if you were you wouldn’t be saying any shit about Paul Wall. #RESEARCHBEFOREYOUTALK
So the song is him ballin like Iverson that’s why the song is called White Iverson and the Black racists got TRIGGERED! Black racists hide their racism behind the term cultural appropriation. Hip Hop needs to get rid of these racist imbeciles, black and white, before its really over.
or he can just takes notes and get in the studio… the dude is looking frustrated going at post for a track made years ago…300,000,000+ views on youtube starlito – you can’t change that…culture appropriation hahaha more like “I’m jealous” …
Khaled Malone MGK these other new fuck-boy’s wearing skinny jeans dresses blouses jeggings need to go home rap game full of so many fuckin corny people
What’s really sad about Post Malone. Is that rappers actually sale out and do songs with him. Dude is another vulture. Dude is a clown. Anybody that sold out to do a song with him is a clown too.
Ain’t this the same guy wearing the booty shorts in that u tube video? It was hella gay. So I guess he does fit into today’s rap scene with all these other sus dudes.
When Ppl post sales and plaques they’re corny.
Black people can’t be racist… Nooo thats not how that works. Lmfaoo fuck outta here. Big lito fan nashville native here, but come on? He hasn’t dropped a n bomb or anything cut him slack ya black supremacist
Your a racists!!
I’m a fan of both but Post says he’s not a rapper but most of his songs he’s rapping. Ppl thought he should be on the XXL freshman class couple years ago but he doesn’t consider what he does hip-hop. I see how lito can be heated he doesn’t think post is here for the culture just got hot off of a hot song and riding it out just like the rest of these new rappers they about the money. No respect for the rap game just appealing to the masses. there’s no versatility of real rap no more. Just a handful of rappers are doing it
