Justin Bieber deleted a put up dissing Clipse after their album beat his for the No. 1 spot, however the drama didn’t go unnoticed by Hip-Hop circles.

Justin Bieber and Clipse dropped albums on the identical day, however just one walked away with a No. 1 spot—and it wasn’t Bieber.

The Canadian pop star shocked followers with SWAG, his first album in 4 years, whereas Virginia duo Clipse made a thunderous return with Let God Sort Em Out. Despite a divided fanbase and little direct competitors, the matchup acquired testy after the numbers got here in, and Clipse took the highest place. Now, this will not be mirrored within the charts of mainstream, however for us…Clipse are No. 1. and Bieber is aware of it.

Rather than supply congratulations or keep quiet, Bieber determined to put up an Instagram Story that took direct goal at Pusha T and Malice. Some joker named Kerwin Frost mocked Clipse’s fanbase as “bitter grown men who collect Kaws dolls and shop at Kith and Union.” At first, I believed that was Beebz. But, Bieber opted to repost and add, “This is the only album that matters right now,” in all caps. OH.

The put up didn’t final lengthy. Bieber deleted it swiftly. But we’re going to immortalize it. The transfer got here off salty, in my view. SWAG marked his first launch in years and was typically properly acquired. He leaned on rap heavy to make that occur. But taking a jab at Clipse? Bad look.

Bieber remains to be signed to Def Jam, the identical label Clipse left behind. Some people have recommended the label pushed him to tug the diss, fearing a large number from the brothers. Considering Pusha T’s observe document surgical takedowns, he doesn’t need to be the following Canadian on the menu. We keep in mind the Drake state of affairs. Rap has at all times proven this man love (simply ask Diddy).

Clipse, to their credit score, didn’t even reply. They let the individuals and charts converse for them. Let God Sort Em Out is the No. 1 most talked about album proper now. They have the crucial acclaim and high-art options.

Bieber has to place his emotions in test. Some have accused him of utilizing medicine. I hope not, however possibly that’s the place he and Clipse can have widespread floor. A fiend and a few coke rappers. That could also be too far. Anyway, glad each albums are getting good evaluations and reward. By the way in which, Bieber is 31.

Maybe he ought to name him “Justin Beefer.”
