Joell Ortiz responds to Kendrick Lamar's verse

 

Kendrick Lamar wanted to raise the bar when he only named ten rappers and claimed to be the King of New York. And within 24 hours, rappers like Fabolous, Joe Budden, Meek Mill and Tyga replied via the internet and twitted away. No response has been made by Wale, J-Cole or Drake thus far. And Asap Rocky is also M.I.A.

 

But according to the response to Big Sean "Control" ft. Kendrick Lamar & Jay Electronica,  Joel Ortiz is the first rapper to state on track to Lamar “Lil homie you ain’t the King Of New York/You the next thing on my fork".

 

So even though he was not mentioned on Kendrick's verse, Joell Ortiz felt some kind of way. It's only Hip Hop and Joell is the perfect lead off battle rapper to step to the plate and rep New York.

 

In addition to murdering the track, Ortiz even expresses his time spent at Aftermath Entertaiment, a label Kendrick is signed to when he raps,  I’ll leave the King of L.A. to Dre, I was this close to staying Aftermath but lamped out like a genie/Dre you a fuckin gangsta and [Kerniss] you such a sweetie and guess what I’m a free agent again if y’all ever need me.”

 

It's been reported that the record will not be featured on Big Sean's Hall Of Fame due to sample issues, which means you can expect to hear much more of the track and other verses to go along with it on mix tapes CD's.

 

Kendrick's verse did exactly what it should..bring the real MC's out. And Latino rappers never want to be left out of a street fight.
