“Look, I cut that bitch off like an edit / My daddy a G, it’s genetics (Straight up) / I heard ya new shit, it’s pathetic / Ya contract should be s-shredded”

“Look, I woke up in beast mode / With my girl, that’s beauty and the beast though / Been top 5, these niggas sleep though / Only thing that sold out is the seats though (Never sold my soul, never will never have)”

“Niggas change up more than wishin’ wells / Karma come around I’ll wish ’em well / Livin’ like I’m on a limitless pill / I kill the scene like I’m Denzel”

Big Sean is doing “No More Interviews,” or atleast that’s what he says on one of his two new singles.

On “No More Interviews,” Sean vents on how he’s over the gossip and rumors, people on social media, conflict within G.O.O.D. Music, his loyalty, and his ex, Naya Rivera working on a “tell all” book, but leaving out key factors from their relationship to make him look bad.

Listen below.

“No More Interviews” is available now on all platforms.

QUOTABARZ

“I’m coming from the underground like it’s Groundhog’s Day / I’m talking so underground that when I talk about J, nigga / I might mean J Dilla, R.I.P. real niggas”

“This my last time putting my ex in a song even though the last one went triple platinum /I’d rather put that energy into what’s worth having / Like how I got a platinum album with no solo tour”

“So many friends turn to enemies, they frenemies / I don’t know why I act like I’m surprised or it’s offending me / I’m saying, though, I should have learned from Hov and Dame / From Stunna and Wayne, Cudi and YE / What happened to our family ways, though? / When I put you on that song with Nas, you had told me that you was forever grateful  / And that we brothers, so it hurt to hit the internet to find out that me and you don’t fuck with each other  / Over a miscommunication that probably could be fixed with a 5 minute conversation, I’m still praying”

“Going off like Kobe when he wore the crazy eights”

Lupe Fiasco Fires Back at Kid Cudi

Lupe Fiasco took it to Twitter to say how he really felt.  He posted sometime after Kid Cudi saying “what part of ‘rehab’ is calling people p***ies and asking for fades?! Rehab is checking your own problems not this sh*t.”  The rapper had no problem making his own opinion about the Drake and Cudi beef.

Kid Cudi and Fiasco have had an odd relationship for a while now. Last year, the Man on the Moon criticized Lupe for selling personalized verses for fans online.  On “Sway in the Morning” last year in January, Fiasco called out Cudi saying “let’s settle this… talk to me before I f**k you up.”

Kid Cudi has not responded to Fiasco’s tweet and Cudi has taken down his Twitter post to Drake
