We went too long without a heated Twitter rant from Jay Electronica. It’s been a year since he went off on an angry tangent and shamed the blogs and media in general about the possible upcoming release of his debut LP. As per his usual protocol, the Louisiana native took to Twitter to tweet his opinions about the rap game today, and he asserts that he wants nothing to do with the “so called thugs.” Read the full story after the jump!
Jay Electronica called out all MC’s who front about their lavish yet gangster lifestyle in their raps in a Twitter rant yesterday. The RocNation lyricist made it clear that he’s not fucking with the rappers who don’t live the life they rap about.
“Be clear I have zero respect for any so called thug that will bang on his own brother and ppl and community but pussy up when cops come.”
The Louisiana native went on to say that he has no respect for the MC’s who rap about gang violence and parade illegal weapons in music videos but didn’t even grow up struggling through that lifestyle. It’s no surprise that he would go off on a tangent about the “cowards” in the rap game today. Eventually, he went as far as calling them all “dumb ass coonery tap dance niggas.”
“You rapping about blasting one of your own over absolutely nothing. Why you ain’t blasting on the judge or the da or the cops?? I hate these fucking cowards The entire game is full of cowards. And dumb ass coonery tap dance niggas acting like they bout some kinda life.”
If he really feels that way, then it’s strange that Jay praised 50 Cent for mentioning Louis Farrakhan on “Power” in his earlier tweets, even after 50 recently admitting the life he rapped about was a total facade. But I digress. Electronica has since deleted the tweets but thanks to All Hip Hop, you can check them out in the gallery. What could have set Jay Electronica off? Sound off in the comments!
