Joyner Lucas and Logic have an interesting history, and the former has made no secret of his animosity toward the Bobby Tarantino rapper. That's not to say there's any real malicious bad blood between them, but Joyner has taken a few shots at Logic over the course of the past year. From his "don't compare me to Logic" bar on "Mask Off" to his recent "44 shots traumatize in front of 45 hit 44 more, carbon copies say you kamikazes, that’s for e'rybody" line on "Look Alive Remix," Joyner has kept the pressure on.
And while Logic appears to be a lover, not a fighter, it would appear that his alter ego Bobby Tarantino has had enough. The following bars from Bobby Tarantino II's "Yuck" seem to be aimed at Joyner. While Logic keeps names unsaid, the implication is strong. Fans have already accepted the track to be directed at the Stranger Things lyricist, leaving many wondering if this is only the beginning. Peep the lyrics below:
"Talkin' shit 'bout Logic, I never respond
I'll let success talk, 'cause a word of advice
More achievements for yourself and less talk
Cats beef with Logic, yeah, they prayin' I respond
If I ever did, I dead you in this game with no respawn
Peace, Love, and Positivity that's all I want with you
But you push the issue 'cause I give you more press than your publicist could ever get you
Hell nah, fuck rap, fuck beef, anyone that hate me, I wish you success
I wish you look in the mirror and ask yourself why you supressed
If feelings of self-hatred that you wan' project on me
Bet if I never picked up the mic then we might be homies
But you jealous, you look at my life and you feel envy
Constantly comparing yourself to me and feel empty
Most people that don't fuck with me ain't ever shook my hand"
While this isn't an all out assault like the "Nail In The Coffins" or "SHEthers" of the world, it's interesting to see Logic firing a warning shot of sorts. Joyner is a capable force on the mic, and seeing these two going head to head on wax would certainly make for some engaging verbal sparring. On the surface, it would seem like Logic doesn't want to take this one any further; after all, he's a man of peace. Still, Joyner has a clear competitive spirit, and who knows what this might awaken in him. Guess we'll have to wait and see what transpires of this one.
