Social media is killing rap beef. Callouts that might have been refined and organized into calculated disses are now being carelessly dropped on cyberspace ;with less consideration than a Craigslist post for a used panini.
It’s been a busy week for the newfound Drake-Meek Mill rivalry. Long story Too $hort, Meek Mill called out Drake for having a ghostwriter. ;Instead of responding via Twitter, Drake did things the old-fashioned way: He recorded a track about Meek Mill. With his mouth. Into a mic. Because that’s ;what rappers are supposed to do.
