This week brought the hip-hop world a surprising but fascinating beef between two all-star producers. Hit-Boy and Hitmaka continued their beef, which all started when the latter said that the former can't compete with him in a radio market. Then, Hit-Boy teased some lyrics from a song with The Alchemist where he disses Hitmaka and his merits. After that, Hitmaka responded by saying that Hit-Boy is a terrible solo artist and should focus on his production. In subsequent attacks online, both producers clarified and doubled down on their stances.
First, Hitmaka published an edited video of ILOVEMAKONNEN's clowned Tim Westwood freestyle with Hit-Boy's face on it. Also, he included an alleged DM screenshot where the King's Disease producer complimented his production success. "CHAUNCEYYYYYYYYYYYY CHAUNCEYYYYYYYYYY,” he captioned the post, calling Hit-Boy by his government name. “Quit f***ing playing kid YOU know I got the hit factory Now Swipe Right 2 SEE YA IDOLS EVERY TIME U RAP SALUTE TO THE WORST PRODUCER RAPPER OF ALL-TIME.” For what it's worth, Hit-Boy responded simply with three laughing emojis in his comments.
Hitmaka Continues Beef On Instagram
On his end, Hit-Boy posted an edited picture of Muhammad Ali (with Hit-Boy's face) knocking out Sonny Liston (with the Chicago producer's face). “I only meant to Diss 1 person on slipping into darkness,” he captioned the post with a laughing emoji. In the comments, he continued his clarification. "I got respect for mustard metro and southside," he wrote. Regardless, Metro Boomin allegedly responded to the shots, so maybe that wasn't clear to everyone or he intended his jabs to be friendlier competitiveness. Also in the comments, Hitmaka clapped back.
"Pls send beats so I can help u,” he clapped back. “N***A U DID 3 ALBUMS WIT @nas & he ain’t give u one verse. Everyone knows u terrible at rapping don’t make me go rap I actually have plaques from being a rapper.” In addition, this beef couldn't have come at a more perfect time. As Hitmaka dropped his Jim Jones collab album on Friday (March 10), Hit-Boy dropped an album of his own with Musiq Soulchild.
