Westbestside:
Keep deceiving yourself

Lol. You're mistaking you for me. I go extra miles not to be deceived. Can you say the same for yourself? Running riot here already?

Meanwhile, you may wanna be sure of your premiss.
I've asked the OP to give me a link but so far no response.

I've scanned New York archives in the said date but couldn't see this news.

See for yourself.

Would appreciate it if you take your time out to work on this seemingly deceptive post and unravel the facts

Westbestside:
Rather put it in normal way, you will go back to your eternal slave masters I mean the fulanis. Even New York time knows your race as betraying race.

The Igbos do not observe what other tribes know as 'master' and this is well documented in history. Other tribes evidently have their 'masters' or 'leaders' if you choose to call them that.
So this pathetic jib won't sell.

MODIFIED: Unfortunately, I couldn't find the exact page where this was found and as it is my practice, I will refrain from quoting this 'snapshot' as a viable source until OP provides a NY Times archives link to this information.

@OP.. Please, share the NY Times archives link. I've checked but couldn't find it.

Ayomideen:
I might be getting you all wrong o but are you trying to say MGK won that war against Eminem?

Nah bro.
He was insinuating it's an insult for M.I to diss VEC and I gave him a subtle reminder that if it's about the self-imposed Lord of Nigerian rappers status, Eminem, a rap god, dissed MGK as a reply incase he forgot.

Eminem won that round as a streetlord.

But this pathetic attempt by M.I. to hide behind fatherly figure to dodge a mic battle will only sell for his dumb fans. Even he knows VEC prowess.

Too sad the battle ended before it began.

Neurotika:
Sometimes trying to prove you're the best to someone way below you is an insult. We talking lyrical depth and delivery, you talking energy.

You mean like Eminem proved to MGK? It's alright.
Of course it's an insult only in Nigeria with this senior-brother-money-wins-all mentality.

Let the euphoria die down first, then we shall explore the rap potential of the diss songs.

Rebelutionary:
I felt the punch in every line....it was hitting me right in the heart... Every word from M.I was like a red hot sword...this is exactly what Eminem did to Machine Gun Kelly...this is too much abeg!

At no point was Eminem advicing MGK like a son. Eminem took him on.

This is a petty excuse to shy out of a mic battle.
Too sad he begun it with a defence that he wasn't gonna diss. After so many disses already.
Was that the plan for the fans VEC insulted?

Someone will say M.I. was being mature. In rap game? Na wa.

Charmingrascal:
I don't know if that thing M I called a diss track is truly a beef or ballad to mourn somebody.

No energy
No punchlines


Shit is Just too sober to be a beef song







Watch out for Vector's reply I know say e no go pass tomorrow.

Started the shii with a bible verse, that's when I knew this baba was gonna drop rubbish talk.

Still getting high on the Chairman title. And he already knows that shii is backwards.

TroubleMaker47:
M.I has just dropped his reply

You're telling me aftet how many of my comments on it?

YungJo207:
No need to listen man doesn't look like a reply to me looks more like an advice to me
Anyways what do I know some of his fan will sure be disappointed and trust me vector go reply.

I have been to M.I Instagram page and trust me dude just shot himself with that post.

I already did.
And this is supposed to be for the fans.
Well, it's not like we expect him to survive a lyrical duel with Vector.

So las las we're back to where we started.

M.I. claimed this is not a diss. That's coming after many other disses.
No yawa. We accept it as a mature advice.
Later we will dissect the concept word by word.

Now the realest question.

Lyrically, The Purge and this The Viper.. Which is lyrically dominant?

anonymousghost2:
go n listen to m.i reply to vector hahaha.
this is not even a diss but an advice lol...
the viper by mi.
[quote author=Raheemzee post=82858514]The father just dropped some advice to the tall son, he sure would dobale now

When I drop my views, you can be very certain that it's because I've listened to it.
Something you really can't say.

Just how my class students decided to hit me up with a surprise gift as their form teacher. Got lots of well wishes and gifts from other too.
Had to beg someone to help me convey the numerous gifts I got from every students to my house.
I appreciate their efforts to renew our passion for the job.
I'm refreshed!!

This shows?

Was that ever in contention?

It's obvious mushroom is not a green plant so why would it need sunshine to grow in the first place?

BTW it's called a Saprophyte

Ekpeitit:
Let me ask you something, let's say Akwa Ibom State where I come from decide to join your useless Biafra, what will we gain from that?
What do the Igbos bring to the table,we have oil,what do you have?

To be very frank, the Igbos have nothing that Akwa Ibom will gain from. Let the igbos keep their Biafra dreams to themselves and leave Akwa Ibom out of it. Biafra is an Igbo idea of secession from Nigeria. Dragging the reluctant Akwa Ibom along will only delay their plans.
It's best that Akwa Ibom is left to remain part of Nigeria. They are very comfortable with the current arrangement as they are already fully in control on how their oil is managed and utilized in developing their lands.
After all, what Igbos have is just a dream for their future in the face of the current clime. Something Akwa Ibom does not have and does not need.

goodnewscliff:
Vectors lines amazes me.... Abagas line kills me

R.I.P. Then.

goodnewscliff:
Shurup bro,,, u think u can grab a thing abaga says if u aint schooled!!!! Vectors so called lines re wacky nd always repeating lines.. M. I is innovative,, hes creative,, raps in different dimensions.... U need to really listen to both rappers then judge without sentiment ... Which kind school d vector go sef

Shh... You dey struggle to understand M.I. e come remain Vector.

Sarmiz24:
Lol those lyrics mad bruh,u 4got to add this world play at the second line
I'm I the only one who see This Shit as backwards?

If u look closely u will also see some kinda Wordplay he did there, if u read the word Shit backwardly it will give This .... Vector is mad lyricist no doubt,the more u listen the more u see

Like I told him, everyday you listen to VEC's vibes, new things to see and learn.

anonymousghost2:
it is ovbious u love mediocrity n babish ryme
none or yeye vec album can match m.i or even jaggz.

We're talking songs..you're talking album.
It is well
McGoldrick

anonymousghost2:
go check comment on twitter n youtube, they are mocking vector after releasing such disgrace.
u know nothing abt diss.
go give materials n schooling to ur vec because his pen game is weaker than his erection.

We know the kinds that populate Twitter. Youtube and even Nairaland. But this one is not about them. It's about me and you.

You are not on twitter. I am not on twitter.
We are here on Nairaland.
It is here that you called VEC's lines on The Purge rubbish.

Give me any straight four liner in the track you called rubbish with mediocre lines and the reason you think it's rubbish right here, right now (that's if you've actually listened to the song). Stop referring me to twitter.

kevoh:
That's basically MI stealing punchline na?

Meanwhile, I wonder why some people are saying VECTOR sounds like Jay-Z when basically that's how his voice sounds when he's speaking. Even when he speaks Yoruba he sounds that way Why would anyone want to sound like Jay-Z when speaking Yoruba?

Leemao.
I'm waiting to see two songs of theirs that one can confidently say thia is what they have in common.

spirul77:
.....

I put it to you that you didn't understand any of the Vector's lines from The Purge as evidenced by your weak attempt at explaining one if the four.
I've explained all four with references and no matter your feeble attempts, you'll have to admit that Jesse Jagz used the pear metaphor first before M.I.

Please, explain the in-depth meaning in those four lines you dropped beyond what I already said. Thanks.

You said I lied that Jagz never used it before M.I.? Below is a screenshot of the Greatest lyrics.
Incase you're thinking I made that up, go to waptrick.one the song is there and you'ld hear him say it yourself.
As for the year of release. Even at 2010, Jesse Jagz had won nominations and radioplay for works years earlier. Note that those works were released same time with Greatest...that was years before this '1.2.3'
As for your claim that Jesse Jagz was only known in the North before 2009, Jesse Jagz was nominated for the International Young Music Entrepreneur of the Year award in 2008. That is a London-based award.

Permit me to use a Eminem line here

'Know your facts before you come at me'

YungJo207:
This one weak me


I wonder why till date mode9 refuse to do a freestyle battle with Vector even after vector requesting for it many times which even mode9 admit.

So M.I comes on Twitter to talk about a reply making some people get ready to download and goes back to vector page on Instagram to say the s**t was dope? YeYe dey smell


Go to vector Instagram page and judge the 2 rappers with your own hand.

For now, the reality is that anyone who accepts battling VEC is likely to be murdered.
They realise it even if their fans don't.
VEC don't need months to shine his blade at all.

TroubleMaker47:
True!
M.I even said it, "I'm on top of the avocado tree, so am ahead of my peers"
Vector has never, can never and would never match M.I lyrically!

Actually that avocado tree line was used byJesse Jagz in The Greatest [2006] when he was still in Choc City
People like us who like and remember great metaphors can't forget.
As for lyrically..Let M.I. drop his reply.

So you see? You don't understand it, that's why you're missing the whole point. Calling it nursery rhymes because you don't see beyond the surface. You just think he's hunting rhymes and that's where you got it all wrong.
VEC never hunt rhymes. He hunts sense.

For the other three lines I gave you from The Purge. See the ideas.

"..am I the only one seeing that shit is backwards.."

M.I. in his usual gloating (which is okay in rap music) called himself Lebron King James, the best b-baller. He called himself the greatest rapper alive, The King. Ironically, two months later, M.I. dropped an album in which he called himself The Chairman. VEC is asking you if he's the only one seeing this backwards "M.I. taking himself from being a King to becoming a Chairman"

"...their Chairman panicking pushing buttons like a rookie playing video game..."

We all know how a rookie fumble with game pads. It's a reference to how M.I. is picking his fights, testing everyone like he doesn't know what the rap game is all about. He thinks he's having fun until when they come after him (like VEC is).. It's funny you think this is a tweet sha.

"...I don't care if you respect me, just don't play yourself..."

Is an obvious reference to M.I. belittling other players in the industry. M.I. dropped his diss, and VEC trended, simply shows the industry thinks they are at least equals or they expect VEC to put him in his place. And that when VEC prepared to do battle, M.I. wanted to pally up and began dropping subtle lines on how he is bringing rap culture alive but VEC is having none of that. He doesn't want respect because he isn't giving it.

Looooool.

spirul77:
dat is DJ Neptune's 123 ft m and naeto c and da grin, you still don't understand the last line bro,these lines are VEC talking about m tweeting Instead of rapping and talking about his height in the last line, I won't break a sweat relating to these nursery rhymes baba, please go download illegal music ll, you would be glad you did I swear

Jesse Jagz used the avocado pear metaphor in The Greatest which he released in 2006 if I am accurate. You're quoting it being used by M.I. last year in 123. I'm just saying I've heard that years before.

I gave you just four lines from only one track which I believed you have listened to but you couldn't decode.
Even the last line you called a play on his height was the surface meaning which you all see.

M.I. asked for him to drop a joint and Vector's reply was (what's the point? if I cut my legs off you won't still reach the point where my head is)
The joint is at the knee and VEC is like even if he cuts off his leg, M.I. won't reach the point where his head is.

For an average listener, he'll only see a short height diss.

For an in-depth listener, he'll see VEC is also talking about the inspiration behind his lines. His head (wisdom) is high up in the clouds and he's insinuating M.I. will never get there or be as good even if he (VEC) drops a notch lower.

Now you see?
You are not qualified to rate VEC.

spirul77:
....

That pear metaphor was used by Jesse Jagz in his 'Jesse Jaga Jaga' track of years back. Am I wrong?
Tampon is used for menses, without which it has no usefulness so why would it be mad at its job..just saying.
The last two lines is a word play on EFCC political inclinations and how they favour politicians in their hunts. Also a reference to. searching using Google on a chrome.

Any hidden messages, tell me.

Meanwhile, I wanna drop four lines from The Purge for you to decode�
It will go a long way to show if you really know what you're listening to. What's the idea behind these lines


"...Am I the only one seeing this shit is backwards?..."

"...I mean their chairman is panicking pushing buttons like a rookie playing video game he's thinking it's fun sha..."

"..I don't care if you respect me, just don't play yourself..."

"...If I cut my legs off, you still won't reach the point where my head is..."

[quote author=anonymousghost2 post=82846608][/quote]Let's talk about The Purge which you just called rubbish

Give me a straight four-liner anywhere in the track that is rubbish in the track.

You need schooling and I am ready to do that with the materials you provide

[quote author=spirul77 post=82850616][/quote]I hope you are aware that M.I. bought the scene before VEC came on? Why are you referring me back to M.I. like he 'recently' upgraded?
Stop demeaning 'the Chairman' status nah.

[quote author=spirul77 post=82850720][/quote]Did you watch VEC's recent interview with Daddy Freeze?

Because it will be a waste of time to school someone who doesn't even know the substance of what he's listening to.

If I drop VEC's lines now, you're gonna read it on the surface like M.I's lines and end up missing the whole gist.

AkupeMBANO:
you are not informed. the purge is the wackest. meanwhile bringing some upcomings to make up a diss track for you is the dumbest.

Lol.
From the song art onto Vector's whistle onto his very last line, even myself as a VEC fan hasn't completed decoding but has uncovered enough napalm that'ld have triggered a supposed boss of music to have buried his apprentice's career.
And if after listening to Vader and Payper, your opinion is that the upcomings explicitly came for M.I., well, your understanding is still work in progress.
Well, we are patient. Let's see who survives this purge.
