  • Pusha T Fires Back At Jim Jones In New Clipse Track

    While Jay-Z was done figuring out the vibe of the crowd, Pusha T was not holding back as he and his brother No Malice performed an unreleased song from Clipse (the hip-hop duo consisting of him and his brother.) In the scathing new record, Pusha calls out Jim Jones who he’s had beef with since the beginning of the year.

    “Beware of my name, that there’s delegate/ You know I know where you’re delicate/ Crush you to pieces, I’ll hum a breath of it/ I will close your heaven for the hell of it/ You think it’d be valor amongst veterans/ I’m watching your fame escape relevance/ We all in a room but here’s the elephant/ You chasing a feature out of your element,” Pusha raps, seemingly accusing Jones of kissing up to Drake to get a guest verse.

    He continues: “And those lab diamonds under inspection/ The question marks block your blessings/ It’s no tombstones in the desert/ I know by now you get the message.”

    Jim responded to Pusha’s message on Instagram: “Let me know when they really ready.”

    On top of Pusha’s performance, he also walked side-by-side with No Malice on the runway. Take a look at them walk below:
