Shady Records’ Yelawolf and Post Malone are going in-in on one another. The white rap artists have taken their frustrations toward each other to social media.
Yelawolfwent to Instagram Wednesday to respond to Post calling him a nerd following a diss record release.
Last night, Post hit up Twitter to go in-in on Yela for going at him.
also Yelawolf is a nerd, and this tweet is the only support I will offer his album :)also @Yelawolf please show me all your chill bill shit please! Last I heard you was talking about how you wanted your shit like mine, I have a couple lenders, don’t worry! hmu dad
On his new “Bloody Sunday” freestyle, Yela takes direct aim at Post.
“F*ck it, f*ck Post Malone, just because/Let’s see if he answers back/All that change, tits, and funk, chill Bill/And the cowboy boots and hats/Damn, Postie, why can’t we be friends?/Our clothes already match/Poseur, biter, appropriation thief/Give a fuck how many records you sold/Every fan you made is a leaf off of my tree/Boy, you’re my seed, another mullet in the gang” (“Bloody Sunday” Freestyle)
“I can’t let this Tom Cruise lookin’ motherfucker just paddle by/Don’t know if I’m watching Vanilla Ice or Vanilla Sky/Marshall Mathers may have ignored you/But if you want the smoke, bring the foil/I’ll boil you till the kettle’s dry” (“Bloody Sunday” Freestyle)
YelaWolf‘s been signed to Eminem’s Shady Records for a hot minute already and though he’s never quite experienced the success of his boss, he’s managed to make a name for himself throughout his rap tenure. But all good things come to an end and with his upcoming Trunk Muzik 3 being his final release on Eminem’s imprint, the rapper straight out of Alabama is looking to go out with guns-a-blazin’ and he seems to be aiming directly at Post Malone and G-Eazy.
On his latest freestyle “Bloody Sunday” the Confederate flag loving artist calls Post Malone an “appropriation thief” and referred to G-Eazy as a “Tom Cruise lookin’ motherf*cker.” That seems more like a backhanded compliment if anything but in the South maybe it’s straight disrespectful.
After dropping some pointed bars on G-Eazy and Post Malone, YelaWolf hinted that he got something for his boss’s rival, Machine Gun Kelly by stating “Trunk Muzik 3, bruh/You gonna know how I feel about MGK.”
Looks like if you’re a white rapper these days then YelaWolf’s going to come for ya head.
Check out “Bloody Sunday” below and let us know your thoughts on the suede cowboy boot wearing rappers freestyle.
Over the last several weeks, Yelawolf has been on an absolute tear. In preparation for the release of his new album, TM3 (Trunk Muzik 3), he has been releasing freestyles every week to set the tone. Thus far, he has used them both as vehicles to show his skills are still razor sharp, and also as biting commentary on his views on the state of Rap music. On his “Billy Goat” freestyle, Yela took aim at White rappers who he believes are not truly about the culture. “See, I got haters by the carpool / They say I changed, that’s because I got a jar full / You primates / Monkey-ass white boys, lyin’, fake / Oh, you a Hip-Hop Head?, b*tch, your first record was Kan-ye / You just on a blind date / You get dumped with the rest of ’em when this current trend is over with, I’ll still be on my way,” he rapped. On “Elvis Messy” freestyle, the Gadsen, Alabama MC staked his claim on his status in Hip-Hop, boasting that he was the Muhammad Ali of Rap. With “Bloody Sunday,” as the name suggests, Yela has released his most aggressive freestyle of the series, thus far. While Eminem seemingly took aim at the entire Rap industry with his 2018 Kamikaze album, there were some people that Yelawolf believed his Shady Records boss either missed or who needed further dressing down. Among those who get caught in Yela’s crossfire are G-Eazy and MGK. Regarding G-Eazy, Yela raps “Never thought the culture that I loved would be this sleazy / His videos all look alike, no wonder they can’t see me / Is this the guy that said he was the hottest white boy/Since the one with dyed blonde hair, what the f*ck? Hold up, G… easy / I can’t let this Tom Cruise lookin’ motherfucker just paddle by / Don’t know if I’m watching Vanilla Ice or Vanilla Sky / Marshall Mathers may have ignored you / But if you want the smoke, bring the foil / I’ll boil you till the kettle’s dry.” MGK only gets half a bar in the last verse, but Yela makes it clear more is to come on TM3. Perhaps the person who gets the most static, however, is Post Malone. Despite his Hip-Hop persona and close affiliation with Rap stars, Post stirred up a fair amount of controversy in 2017 by seemingly denigrating the culture from which he was benefiting. He infamously said “If you’re looking to think about life, don’t listen to Hip-Hop.” After saying he was not going to go after the Grammy-winning “Rockstar,” Yela gives Post a thorough Alabama shaking. “Who else? I would diss Post Malone but he don’t even rap / F*ck it, f*ck Post Malone, just because, let’s see if he answers back / All that change, tits, and funk chill bill, and the cowboy boots and hats / Damn Postie, why can’t we be friends? Our clothes already match / Poser, biter, appropriation thief / Give a f*ck how many records you sold Every fan you made is a leaf off of my tree / Boy you’re my seed, another mullet in the gang with the teeth / I see I just picked a bone with Post Malone and did it all on a Beastside beat.” By the sounds of his freestyles. Yelawolf plans to have as many bodies as he has beats in his trunk on TM3.
Booklyn’s Stro The MC signed to Mass Appeal last October. It was the culmination of several years of work, and now the New York spitter is releasing his first content of the new year. Off of his Mass Appeal-released Nice 2 Meet You, Again EP, the rapper formerly known as Astro drops the video for “Waters.”
The first half of the visual mostly centralizes on Stro’s lyrical ability, which seemingly extends beyond his years (no surprise why Nas is a fan). He’s driving his BMW SUV around the neighborhood at night and delivering some braggadocio bars which complement the vibe so well. The delivery features an inflection in his voice at the top of each bar, making it unique. In the second half, the beat switches up, and Stro hops out of his vehicle and continues his lyrical assault.
He closes in strong stride. “All of my bars prevail, you’re stuck in jail / Like nudes in the 90’s, so much p*ssy in the mail / Nowadays, my generation operatin’ through feminine ways / A dedicated MC before I heard it pays / But now, ain’t nothin’ free, dog / Need a couple G’s at least f*ckin’ with me, dog / I’m ill, actin’ like you don’t see, dog / But you a wolf, I know you’re pre, dog / I’m on that ass like toilet seat / I’m fly, plus I keep a lil shum shum like toiletries / And I deliver like they order me / This beat is wavy, I just came to test the waters, nothin’ more to see.” Stro has reached a new plateau, and approaching a decade after he appeared on Sha Stimuli’s My Soul To Keep album as a juvenile, he’s through working pro bono.
According to the Stro, Nice 2 Meet You, Again was a major transition for him both in his personal life and professionally. “[It] represents a new me and a new beginning,” he told Billboard‘s Carl Lamarre at the time of the project’s release. “There was a lot of ups and downs creating this project, but through the grace of God I’m able to say I got it done.”
Stro follows a lineage of lyrical MCs Nas and his team have signed over the years. Mass Appeal has worked with Run The Jewels, Gangrene, Dave East, DJ Shadow, as well as the late J Dilla and Pimp C. Stro joins Fashawn, Ezri, Cantrell, and 070 Phi on a label tour, beginning next month:

After a tumultuous period leading up to and after the release of his third album, Trial By Fire, in the Fall of 2017, Yelawolf is back with some long-promised new music. The Slumerican Records CEO teased the arrival of TM3 (Trunk Music 3) for most of last year, but judging by his latest offering, “Gangsta Walk (Get Buck Freestyle),” the sequel may finally see the light of day this year.
While the Gadsden, Alabama native caught flack from some Hip-Hop Heads for transitioning into a more Rock & Roll / Country-heavy sound on 2015’s Love Story and Trial By Fire, it seems he’s looking to reclaim his spot as a lethal lyricist with a double-time delivery. Over the beat for collaborator Gangsta Boo’s “Gangsta Walk,” Catfish Billy lets loose, “I’m a still that motherf*cka, ain’t nothing new to this / Been that Country Cousin way before I even knew K.R.I.T. / Seven-hundred-dollar glass of whiskey and I shoots it / Using my gold teeth to take an olive off a toothpick.” The vibe of the production and the MC’s presentation hearken back to his pre-Shady Records mixtapes. The mere mention of the Country Cousins project (which never happened, despite significant anticipation) suggests exactly who Yela’ wants to speak to among his onetime fan-base.
Next, the MC addresses some of the rumors swirling around him, as well as issues he’s been dealing with. He does so with compound rhymes: “That A.D.D.’s like S.A.T.s, I never took nothing for it / Dazed and confused, major league, dude, I never took nothing for it / I was just bored / I was just stuck in my trailer walking back and forth / Became a rapper just so I could sing and lose every fan I had before.” While the lines may be tongue-in-cheek, they are also honest and self-reflective. It flashes back to the artist who was so devastating on early mixtapes and in those days trading bars with Em andSlaughterhouse. “Forget about the old me, kinda sorta / Put on a pair of boots and jump the border / But what’s a border to a native quarter / But a way to make Trump create a new order? / I’m a rebel, b*tch, I don’t wait at the shore for / A wave to crash, I go and make the water.” Yela’ combines multi-syllabic lines about his tattoos and fashion changes to show that he is not in favor of the White House campaign. It accomplishes an agenda to reintroduce one of the most exciting MCs from the early 2010s.
He ends the freestyle by defining his and Slumerican’s vibe and sound in 2019, “See if Johnny Cash and Jim Morrison / Became B-Boys with Eminem / And Pink Floyd and forged a group with Hank III, of course, then / Slumerican would be the emporium.”
