Ludacris has sparked social media reactions after speaking about his pen game compared to Jay-Z‘s.
Ludacris appeared as a guest on a recent episode of Cam Newton’s podcast, ‘Funky Friday,’ which was released via YouTube on Friday, May 10. About 49 minutes into the interview, Newton asked Luda about Jay-Z while playing a game of “Win, Lose, or Draw.”
“Verse — like, if I sit this person down in a room and sit you down in a room [and] you guys have two hours to create a verse — Ludacris vs.Hov,” Newton posed.
In response, Luda said he would win in that scenario.
“A verse? I would have to say ‘win.’ I would win on that one,” Luda explained.
The rapper acknowledged that his statement was “strong” or bold. However, although Hov is one of his favorite rappers, he believes his bars can outdo Hov’s.
“…I mean, I’m just gonna go in and metaphor and style — in terms of like flow, I’m gonna kill that s**t,” he explained. “And it’s not that Hov is not gon’ kill that s**t, but I’m like, when you say s**t like that and it’s put me in a category where I’m like, ‘Oh s**t, I’m going against Hov,’ I gotta like — every f**king word, every line, every style, every flow, every metaphor, I got to go!”
Watch his statements below.
Social media users shared mixed reactions to Luda’s “strong” statement in The Shade Room’s comment section.
While Instagram user @omoakin added, “Is he suppose to say somebody else will beat him at his own craft ? 😂”
As The Shade Room previously reported, Ludacris went viral earlier this year after Katt Williams name-dropped him during an interview with Shannon Sharpe. At the time, Williams accused Luda of being a part of the Illuminati.
Additionally, Williams called Luda’s wife ugly.
In response, Luda took to social media to send some bars Williams’ way. The rapper accused Williams of trying to take his shine and being a clout-chaser.
In response, Williams took to the mic to unleash his own set of bars against Luda, per The Shade Room. Williams titled his diss ‘Hit Em Up Part 2′ and referred to Luda as a “fraud” who is on the “wrong side of history.”
Most recently, Ludacris responded to his viral exchange with Williams while appearing on ‘The Breakfast Club.’ At the time, Luda explained why he viewed Williams’ remarks as “laughable.”
