The Drake vs. Common beef may not have seen any recent diss tracks released since Comm remixed “Stay Schemin” to go after Drizzy. however, various rappers are still giving their thoughts on it, including up and coming lyricist Papoose.
The Common and Drake beef may not have achieved the level of previous hip hop battles such as LL Cool J vs. Kool Moe D, or KRS-One vs. Juice Crew, but it has people talking these days. French Montana commented on it, as well as hip hop heavies Scarface and Birdman. an underrated star in hip hop is rapper Papoose, real name Shamele Mackie, who recently spoke to Hot 93.7′s Kevin W. Reese. Papoose said when asked about the beef: “Interesting, man. Because Common is a master lyricist. and I think Drake is nice, too. It’d be interesting to see the outcome. I’m like everyone else. I’m just waiting to see what happens. to me, it’s interesting…it ain’t gonna be a walk in the park.”The independent rap star also talked about the fact he isn’t working for a major label.
