Infamous Rap Fueds

Here is quick recap of some well known rap beefs...Can't we all just get along

[edit] Roc-a-Fella/Sigel

Jadakiss and the LOX were engaged in a long feud with several Roc-A-Fella Records artists, specifically Beanie Sigel and State Property, beginning in 2001. The two main diss tracks are "Fuck Beanie Sigel" by Jadakiss and "Fuck Jadakiss" by Beanie Sigel. The Lox and State Property would continue to diss each other on radio freestyles and mix-tape songs for the next few years.Jadakiss and Beans would then have an onstage battle. The problem was eventually resolved, and since then, the LOX and Beanie Sigel have collaborated on various tracks together, including being listed as collaborators on "Barrell Brothers" from Ghostface Killah's album "The Big Doe Rehab".
[edit] P. Diddy

When the LOX left Bad Boy Records, the group's and each of its members' publishing was still owned by label head P. Diddy. The LOX released several tracks like "We Are The Streets" and "Blood Pressure" which allegedly were aimed towards P. Diddy. The group fought with him over royalties, debt issues and other things until 2005 when they briefly put their differences aside to perform with Jay-Z at his "I Declare War" concert. Afterward, they went on New York radio station Hot 97 to ask for their publishing, which was given to them by Diddy.
[edit] 50 Cent

In 2004, Jadakiss and Fat Joe were featured in Ja Rule's "New York" anthem. In this song, Ja Rule took subliminal but obvious shots at 50 Cent. In turn, 50 Cent made a song titled "Piggy Bank" in which he disses Fat Joe and Jadakiss. This caused Jadakiss to release "Checkmate","Problem Child", and "Ms. Jackson." 50 Cent responded with the song "I Run NY."Jadakiss then challenged 50 Cent to a onstage battle in Madison Square Garden for 1 million dollars...50 Cent declined..stating that Jadakiss is not wealthy enough to put up that type of money. Jadakiss and 50 Cent's differences seemed resolved in February 2007, when Styles P called into HOT 97 and talked with 50 Cent and squashed the beef. In January 2008, 50 Cent said he has no beef with Jadakiss. As of August 28th, 2008 Jadakiss and 50 cent have officially ended their beef and now have plans to record together. Awwwww.
[edit] Bill O'Reilly

Jadakiss attracted some controversy and condemnation from commentator Bill O'Reilly, who labeled him a "smear merchant" due to lyrics in the song "Why?", which state Jada's belief that George W. Bush coordinated the September 11, 2001 attacks:

"Why do niggas push pounds of powder? Why did Bush knock down the towers?" .In the music video for "Why", a man holds up a picket sign reading "BUCK FUSH".

O'Reilly took the position that the President should be allowed to sue Jadakiss for slander. The track was eventually banned on some radio stations or played with the lyrics in question censored.
