The G.O.O.D. Music vs. YMCMB beef doesn’t seem like it’s going to let up anytime soon. The good thing is, it’s not the entire camps going at each other. In fact, everyone seems to be rather harmonious, it’s just Pusha T vs. Wayne, Drake and Birdman. Jae Millz actually jumped in at one point too, but we haven’t heard much from him on that front since then. A snippet leaked last week of a track from Ludacris’ forthcoming Ludaversal album, and it features Swizz Beatz as well as Pusha T, who’s definitely aiming at the YMCMB camp with his verse. “Now your crack swag gone ever since u came from prison. Got you tweeting all stupid, is you skatin’, is you dissin’?” is just one of the examples! In a new interview with Vibe, Push makes it loud and clear who that’s for (though it’s already obvious) and explains how it came about.

“It’s new and was for Luda’s album. You got to blame Swizz,” Pusha said in his recent interview with VIBE. “See, when Wayne got a Swizz beat with the ‘Ghoulish‘ track; he got busy, well, he tried to…I don’t like to refer to my records as diss records. At the end of the day, I make great records even in regards to whether they were aimed at somebody or not my records are great records … Don’t cheapen my music by calling them [diss records].”

He went on to reveal that Ludacris actually tried to step in, hoping Push would change his verse so as to not bring a full-on rap war. Obviously, he refused.

“I play by old school rules,” he explained. “I play by the fundamentals and foundation of what hip-hop was based on.”
