Ray Vaughn Responds to Joey Bada$$ Diss

Joey Bada$$ ignited controversy with his new single 'The Ruler's Back,' where he criticizes the excessive admiration for West Coast hip-hop, referencing a perceived lack of substance in the genre. This prompted a swift response from Ray Vaughn of Top Dawg Entertainment, who fired back with 'Crashout Heritage,' directly calling out Joey for what he sees as 'sneak dissing' and questioning his credibility. Vaughn's track also takes aim at other figures in hip-hop, including Tory Lanez and podcaster Mal, while emphasizing the strengths of the West Coast music scene. The back-and-forth highlights ongoing tensions in the rap community, particularly between East and West Coast artists. As of now, Joey has not publicly responded to Vaughn's diss. The exchange showcases both the competitive nature of hip-hop and the personal connections among artists.
