Canibus releases J. Cole diss track, "J. Clone"
Canibus? Really? You're dissing J. Cole now? This whole thing is so asinine and ridiculous that it hardly bears mentioning. Apparently Canibus took to Facebook the other day to complain about J. Cole, and how, although Cole lists Canibus as one of his major influences, the Roc Nation rap star speaks of Canibus as if he's dead...and Canibus doesn't like this one bit:
"Cole might say he does this to pay homage, but in reality, by him playing my older material owned by my former label dating back to 1998, subsequently overlooking my current works and contributions which directly benefit me now, he is treating me less like an artist that has, and continues to contribute, influence, and inspire an even younger generation of MC’s coming up, and more like an artist that has physically passed on already(i.e. Tupac, B.I.G., Big L, Heavy D, Eyeda [sic]): you get the point I’m trying to make," he wrote. "I can’t help but to think that he is not nearly as sincere or genuine as he would like real hip hop heads to think he is because he speaks about me like I am dead. What he is doing is underhanded and disingenuous and whether it is his idea or not, I don’t agree with his tactic and I have something to say about it."
Canibus is about eight years removed from Rip The Jacker (2003), which means he's about eight years removed from being relevant. Besides being one of the worst diss tracks ever recorded, "J. Clone" marks the sad decline of the once-respected Canibus. Essentially, what Canibus has done, is call out and attack a rising star who's been praising him and listing him as an influence his whole life. Definitely the dumbest thing the repeadetly and incurably dumb Canibus has managed to pull off. If you're curious, give the track a listen below.
