O’Shea Jackson Jr. Reacts to Tony Yayo’s Claim That Biggie Was a Better Rapper Than Ice Cube
Tony Yayo’s recent claim that The Notorious B.I.G. could out-rap Ice Cube has prompted a response from the West Coast emcee’s son and actor O’Shea Jackson Jr.
Yayo made the assertion amid an intense debate with Drink Champs co-host DJ EFN over which of the two men was the better emcee. The G-Unit artist argued that Biggie was the better storyteller, while EFN defended the “No Vaseline” rapper’s discography.
This later led to a shoutout from Jackson Jr. on Twitter. The Compton star came to his father’s defense noting, “People know who my goat is so it’s not fair to even ask me. But I will say that Life After Death whole concept is from Death Certificate.” He added, “Ask @Diddy if I’m lying. It’s all love at the end of the day.”
A wave of support soon followed from fans including one supporter who boldly declared “Biggie doesn’t have a bigger story telling record than Ice Cube” noting that “‘Today Was A Good Day’ is the biggest storytelling record of all time.”
Recently Jackson Jr. took issue with another emcee after rapper Logic covered Cube’s smash record “It Was A Good Day.” The Den of Thieves star appeared to be upset at the mention of his mother, Kimberly Woodruff. Logic performed the song verbatim O’Shea Jackson Jr. Reacts to Tony Yayo’s Claim That Biggie Was a Better Rapper Than Ice Cubeincluding the line, “I got a beep from Kim, and she can f**k all night.”
