So yeah, \u2018Big Time Sh\u2019lappa\u2019 happens and the album happens and within that whole period I&#8217;m running around doing launches, I&#8217;m doing interviews back and forth, everything is going crazy and I don&#8217;t really see Lucasraps as much anymore, you are not in the studio as much because now it is time to run around.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Blxckie continued;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>So Lucasraps decides that he is going to go jump into an actual record deal, you know what I mean, because the original deal he had is the same one I&#8217;m in right now, just management and distribution. So he moved out of this house and got the Def Jam Africa deal and then he dropped the album.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The host, Zingah, then asks Blxckie whether he was on Lucasraps&#8217; album, and the \u201c<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=5kqJPmnJj4g\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Uppity<\/a><\/strong>\u201d rapper replied;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>I wasn&#8217;t on the album unfortunately but I was on the deluxe, it was a little bit tricky at the time. I can&#8217;t tell you why, not because there is a thing between us, but I also don&#8217;t know what happened at the time. We&#8217;ve had a few conversations about it but there is no real reason for it and that is why to this day, it&#8217;s like still a little bit touch and go, like we are cool, we link up with each other and stuff.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Now in regards to what Blxckie said, Lucasraps addressed the situation as well when he went on to say;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>So I&#8217;m pretty much going to break the silence for my side, so yeah how do I put this? I don&#8217;t have beef with Blxckie, when I see him, I rock and tap him up, but it is something I told him where it was like, yo bro, imagine we are ants in a container right, I&#8217;m a red ant and you&#8217;re a black ant, then someone shook the container and we started getting angry with ourselves, so that is the best way I can explain it.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>Today it is like I learnt my lesson and I went my way and that is why I have this and I&#8217;m at peace right now. When I left \u2018M4 Entertainment\u2019, I&#8217;m not the type of person to talk bad on things but that really did hurt me, I was really hurt. I asked Blxckie for a verse on \u2018Ye x4\u2019 and he said he&#8217;s gonna think about it, and he&#8217;s still thinking about it, yeah so like you know what I mean, I won&#8217;t lie to you on some G sh!t, I was hurt, you feel me? But I also had to learn that sometimes you get punched in the face but you have to get up, that is only for me to understand that yo, that wasn&#8217;t for me and stuff that is coming for me it&#8217;s gonna be crazy, you understand what I mean.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>So I mean I have no hate to nobody, I went through the frustration part, I went through the angry part and I&#8217;m at the point where it&#8217;s like there was so much damage done that we can only either build from it or let go, and I&#8217;m just at the phase of not gonna push to build.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>Now what I made from this situation is that things turned sour as soon as Blxckie released his album \u201cB4now\u201d, as well as Lucasraps leaving \u2018M4 Entertainment\u2019 to join Def Jam Africa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I mean from Blxckie&#8217;s point of view, he was doing a lot of networking once the album dropped, and considering that the Covid-19 lockdown ended towards the end of 2020, the homies weren&#8217;t chilling together as much as they used to.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So it is reasonable to expect the disconnect between them, plus Blxckie made mention of Lucasraps releasing \u201c031 To The World\u201d in retaliation to his (Blxckie&#8217;s) debut album, pretty much saying that he went into it with the wrong mindset and dropped the album with the wrong energy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now in regards to Lucasraps, he made mention of not beefing with Blxckie but he felt hurt about his relationship with him when he left \u2018M4 Entertainment\u2019. I mean he stated that he asked Blxckie to be on \u2018<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=CPyLCgLtYK0\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Ye x4<\/a><\/strong>\u2019, and he&#8217;s still waiting for a response from him to this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So even though he is not willing to push to board with him currently, he still has a lot of love for him. Now this response from Lucasraps showed a lot of maturity from his side, and I can only respect that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now the way I see it, I think this split just comes down to their egos. I mean Blxckie had no intention of being in Lucasraps&#8217; shadow, whereas Lucasraps on the other hand wanted to continue boarding with Blxckie in hopes of elevating his own career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now thankfully it is not beef and these two don&#8217;t hold any animosity towards each other, so hopefully we can see them once again drop another genuine hit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And with that being said, you guys let me know your thoughts on this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What do you make of Blxckie and Lucasraps going their separate ways? And do you want them to reunite on a genuine level?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the past year, there has been speculation about whether Blxckie and Lucasraps&#46;&#46;&#46;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2065,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[10,15],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/nsfas.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/Blxckie-and-Lucasraps.jpg","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/nsfas.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2056"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/nsfas.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/nsfas.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nsfas.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nsfas.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2056"}],"version-history":[{"count":9,"href":"https:\/\/nsfas.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2056\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2066,"href":"https:\/\/nsfas.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2056\/revisions\/2066"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nsfas.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2065"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/nsfas.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2056"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nsfas.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2056"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/nsfas.net\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2056"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
