Vic Mensa has been under fire for his XXXTentacion diss during his cypher freestyle at the BET Hip-Hop Awards since the show’s taping a few weeks ago in Miami. The awards finally aired on national TV tonight and fans of the late rapper were even more fed up.
What caused the uproar was Mensa saying “Your favorite rapper is a domestic abuser. Name a single Vic Mensa song, XXX we all know you won’t live that long. I don’t respect n*ggas posthumously, homicide ain’t new to me, catch up with Akademiks at your eulogy. ”This dates back to the violence situation regarding X and his girlfriend at the time. Mensa had previously apologized for doing the diss in front of X’s mother but not for him addressing domestic violence. He also said he’s ready for anyone who wants to fight him.
Mensa obviously didn’t care for the fact that X wouldn’t have had a chance to respond in regards to the posthumously line. If X were still here, it’d be interesting to see how this beef would unfold.
Social media had some reactions to the highly anticipated cypher by Vic Mensa regarding XXXTentacion. Flip the pages for the cypher along with tweets following it.
