For the first time in a loooooooong time I am excited about a beef. And I would never have expected to be excited about this beef, but I am "oooh oooh, when the next diss track gonna come out!?!?!" excited! Maybe it's because it's the first time in a while a beef (at least so far) appears to be staying where it belongs: "on wax." Maybe my venom for Nicki is just that strong. Maybe Kim endeared me to herself more than I realized after her verse on "Hey Ho." Whatever the case may be, I'm hyped.

ETA: Changed the embed. This one is much better. No DJ shouting over it. Just straight play./Whole thing.
No seriously the impersonation in the end. :dead:
It saddens me that so far the response to this (that I've seen) is "Kim is irrelevant." First of all, this whole notion of irrelevance is a farce based on nothing. Second of all the track is ill and if relevance is to be based on anything it should be skill. It seems like because miss spastic baby voice is the current "It girl" it's blinding people from recognizing how good this diss track is.
If anything Kim is to be commended for getting through a song without a reference to suckin dick.
I haven't heard Nicki put out anything yet that leads me to believe she'll top this. But I will (try to) be as unbiased as possible whenever her response comes out. At the end of the day I'm just glad to see beef done right. 50 cent needs to take notes. No making video clips with relatives. No madness. Just "I'm better and here's a track. Please respond."
And I don't think this is the greatest diss song of all time. It's no Ether, but it's excellent and at the very least a good start for what I hope it a healthy back and forth between them.
But seriously though Nicki can't top that!
