For those of you unaware, Skillz orginated the yearly "Rap Up" that Uncle Murda later helped popularized with his own version. However, during Uncle Murda's 2017 recap single, he took a shot at Skillz which seems like it went under the radar. Skillz clearly picked up on the shot and comes through today with his rebuttal.
For four and a half minutes, Skillz rips through the instrumental as he aims for Uncle Murda's neck on "Murda Gram." The song opens up with a clip of Uncle Murda openly admitting to taking the concept for the year-end rap-up song. Skillz used a screenshot of a DM where Uncle Murda pretty much tells Skillz that he fell off and how his version is way better. Skillz tackles the production of DMX's "Murdergram" featuring Jay-Z and Ja Rule.
Skillz also goes on wax to detail his version of the story and how at one point, Uncle Murda was trying to collaborate on a version of the yearly "Rap Up."

Quotable Lyrics
And what I'm 'bout to say might piss New York off
But you the one reason that New York soft
A worker who could never be a New York boss
Smack that dirty fitted off your head, New York lost
