Hip Hop’s most egotistical mogul, Sean Combs, expressed shock and dismay last week at the news that his friend, rapper Jay Electronica signed a record deal with Jay Z and Rocnation.
It wasn’t news that Diddy pursued Jay E like a dog in heat after the latter dropped heat seeking mixtapes that created a frenzy in Hop Hop land.
After recording a track with Jay E that was warmly received by the hip Hop masses (“The Ghost of Christopher Wallace”), Jay E. ultimately decided to take his talents elsewhere.
Hoping to get in on the ensuing publicity about the historic signing, Sean Combs tweeted:
“Damn it hurts in a whole other way when someone you felt, and I mean really felt was your Friend, Betrays you. It hurts when Breathe.”
Diddy later tweeted that he wasn’t referring to “Jz” as the “Friend” who betrayed him. Duh, we all thought he was referring to Jay E, not Jay Z.
Anyway, here’s Jay’ Electronica’s response to Diddy courtesy of the crack news team over at Its The Real News:
