This is actually a diss song. Jay-Z is dissing DeShawn Stevenson of the Wizards for his homie Lebron James. It's basketball beef meets rap beef! If you don't know the back story on this one here we go.
LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers are playing DeShawn Stevenson and the Washington Wizards in the first round of this years NBA playoffs. Last month, after shutting down LeBron in the final minute of a game, DeShawn said that Lebron was 'overrated'. When asked to respond to DeShawn's comment LeBron said humorously that responding would be "almost like Jay-Z saying something bad about Soulja Boy. There’s no comparison. Enough said.”
So basically LeBrown called DeShawn talentless. And wack. And a one hit wonder. And a corn ball. And a fad. And a kid. And... well you get it. Lebron James is Jay-Z and DeShawn Stevenson is Soulja Boy. Lebron is the best and DeShawn isn't (to be fair, DeShawn Stevenson is a way better basketball player than Soulja Boy is a rapper). So for game 3 of the Cavs/Wizards series DeShawn invited Soulja Boy to the game as a guest of the Wizards to basically do his little dance on the side lines. The result was actually a Wizards win.
How did LeBron respond? He had Jay-Z make a diss record about DeShawn Stevenson. And to make it even better he had it debuted at a Washington club called "Love" on Friday night that had members of the Washington Wizards in attendance. In fact, the DJ played the record 5 times (ok, this is starting to sound a little gossipy now).
As you would expect the song didn't make DeShawn too happy and he responded by going after LeBron again. "I don't like him," he said, adding "He says he has a lot of swag, but I don't think that's something to do. This is basketball. I'm not worried about the song. I'm not worried about what he did." DeShawn also made it very clear it's LeBron he doesn't like but he has no problem with Jay-Z. "Jay-Z is a legend. He'll go down in history. No disrespect to Jay-Z. I take it as a compliment. I like his music. I like everything he does. I would never go at a legend."
Basketball beef! I want to hear a Soulja Boy record going at Jay & LeBron now. THAT would be funny. Soulja Boy tell em! Don't go out like that! You gotta respond! Can you see that happening? Nope.
