The rift between Boosie and T.I. was sparked by Tip's admission to snitching on his dead cousin to avoid a gun charge. Boosie, sticking to his principles, called out T.I. and said their joint project would be shelved as a result.
But while the beef between the two seems real based on Boosie's staunch anti-snitching sentiments, Yung Joc recently appeared on Math Hoffa's podcast where he shared his skepticism of the whole thing and why it seems like a marketing ploy instead.
“So it’s kind of one thing if you my OG, and I can speak out against you, I can’t migrate to another city and link with a n-gga who done did the same thing, and not say nothing,” said Joc. “So that’s the space Boosie in, and he standing on that. I don’t know if for Tip, ’cause he’s like ‘Man, I thought we were good.’ But then at the end of the day, I don’t know what’s real no more."
“They had the joint album. Now T.I. said that he’s gonna do his last album where he be throwing himself as the king. It could be the press for his new album. ‘Cause it was just that fast with him and Boosie. With Boosie doing that, it’s a lot of people who still love Tip in the way that they’re, ‘You know what? With you doing that, bro, we gon’ support this shit whole 100 percent.'”
He continued: “And there’s some people who love Boosie that are like, ‘You know what? You stood on that, we gon’ support you.’ So I don’t know what the fuck. When I think about marketing, when people talk to me about shit, I always saw it go wrong. I say some shit in the background and then, when that shit come out, n-ggas be like, ‘Bro, how the fuck you knew that?'”
