You don’t have to have skills to rap, you don’t have to be a dope rapper to rap, you don’t have to even have talent to rap. Everything I’m saying is fact. All you need is a ghostwriter. F**k all the politics of what you need. There are so many acts that are just mediocre that are winning. My point isn’t to make them lose, my point is that mediocrity is oversaturating the game and we just keep s**t level.

O’Shea Jackson Jr. Wants To Be Left Out Of The 50 Cent & Ja Rule Beef
By Ne’Richa
O’Shea Jackson Jr. wants to make it obvious that he has no role in the reoccurring rap beef between Ja Rule and 50 Cent. He took to Twitter to jokingly clarify that he’s name is “Bennet” and he “ain’t in it” when it comes to the disagreements between Fif and Ja.
He seemed to be unaware that their beef spans over the two decades since his teenage years.
It’s actually somewhat comical once you realize that Jackson’s sentiments are not exclusive.
The newer generation who is just now introduced to the beef were pretty much all kids when everything jumped off.
Even more of a reason for these grown azz men to patch things up!
O’Shea basically said that he said what he said, but he still isn’t in it!
