RadioOnFire.com - The war of words between Joe Budden and Meek Mill has been brewing for a while. A diss track or several was bound to be the result and it looks like Joe is ready to let one fly.
"I’m not off “barbs get him”… F*ck Meek," Joe tweeted earlier this week.


Meek responded via an Instagram post with lyrics that seemed to be aimed theSlaughterhouse emcee.
"Pretty n!ggas wanna mention my name to get acknowledged / Hoping I react like a fool and give 'em violence / I rather kill 'em with success and give 'em knowledge / Before I throw it all away for a sucka 'cause we the hottest / My momma crib big as a church, I'm being modest / No sleep putting in work that's how she got it," the MMG rapper wrote.
That was the response Joe was hoping for.
"God is good," he responded.


Meek later clarified that he wouldn't be putting anything on wax, but threw shots at his New Jersey counterpart in the process.



"Nobody ain't trying to come at that Shermhead/crackhead JoeBuddens this n!gga got the blogs to say I'm about to diss him. We running down on n!ggas off the internet...He's infatuated with rappers lives n!gga a podcaster now lol."
Joe then said he was ready to get to the diss tracks.


"@MeekMill don't worry, I was done being reactionary months ago. I'll initiate, u take your time, diss bars clearly aren't your thing." he tweeted. "I apologized once, now repent. Grab a pad quick n****, it's coming. Don’t speak my name to a fan… Say it to me n!gga. Stand behind your ability to rap. Or tell them why u won’t. Was plenty verbiage when I was faithfully podcasting…. Kinda quiet now mysteriously… Stay woke. This is so much fun. Back dark… Happy 4th… Enjoy the fireworks.

As we reported at the time, this beef started in July 2015, when Joe said on his podcast that Meek was acting like a simp behind his girlfriend Nicki Minaj.

Rostrum Records Files $2 Million Countersuit Against Wiz Khalifa


RadioOnFire.com - On May 31, 2016, Wiz Khalifa filed a $1 million lawsuit against Rostrum Records.
In the suit filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, Wiz claims the label he's been with since 2005, has profited from "virtually every aspect of his professional life" for more than a decade, and entered a "series of other transactions, all in further violation of the rule against self dealing."
He says Rostrum cut deals with Warner Bros. Records and Atlantic Records for his recordings while "intentionally conceal[ing] material information... in order to profit at his expense."

Wiz was 16 when he entered into a verbal agreement that allowed Rostrum and it's founder, Benjy Grinberg, to manage his career.
The Taylor Gang boss argues that his sixth solo album,"Khalifa," released February 5, 2016, fulfilled his written contractual obligation.
Wiz terminated his management agreement with Rostrum in 2014, and now wants his contract voided.
On Wednesday, June 29, Grinberg filed a $2 million countersuit.
He claims Wiz's contract calls for the "We Dem Boyz" hit maker to pay Rostrum 15% of touring and music royalties, in addition to a 20% cut of merchandise sales, according toTMZ.
The label is asking a judge to force Wiz to cough up $2 million.
"To give everything you have to an artist and then be on the receiving end of a fabricated lawsuit is deeply disappointing," Grinberg told Billboard. "What was alleged is, in fact, the complete opposite of our actions and the antithesis of what Rostrum Records and I stand for. Rostrum looks forward to quickly addressing these baseless claims so we can continue to focus our energies on our artists' success.”
A court hearing has been set for August 1 in Los Angeles.
