KRS-One disses Nelly/'The Difference'
« on: April 17, 2002, 06:35:29 PM »
(Not sure if this has been posted before?)
An Album that's expected in June is 'The Difference', a compilation of 12 new songs featuring 'underground' rappers. It's already getting attention thanks to KRS-One's (featuring Tonedeff - similar in voice and flow to Eminem) track on the album, 'Clear 'Em Out'. Although KRS-One denied that it was a direct diss at Nelly, the album's press release say otherwise.

Lyrics like "You tired of me saying what's real hip-hop/ Well I'm tired of you biting my shit to go pop" and "Sales don't make you the authority/ It only means you sold out to the white majority" leave little doubt that, directed at Nelly or anyone else, KRS is not a fan of mainstream hip-hop.

The Compilation arised from the album's producer Domingo trying to get listeners away from mainstream songs and direct their attention at what the underground has to offer as well.

"Hip-hop is so fabricated right now," Domingo said. "We're trying to bring it down to where it really came from: the underground, the streets. A lot of these cats got mainstream songs, but the whole point of the album was not to do so-called commercial music. We thought, let's put out an album that may not satisfy mainstream ears but the ears of people that want to listen to hip-hop how it was."

Track listing for The Difference, according to Official Jointz:
"Certified Official" - Dilated Peoples
"Rumble" - High & Mighty
"Irrationally Speaking" - Sean P. (a.k.a. Ruck) ft. Illstar
"Blow It Up, Shut It Down" - K-Slash ft. Mr. P.R.
"Clear 'Em Out" - KRS-One ft. Tonedeff
"From the Child to the MC" - Rise
"Native New Yorker" - Punch & Words
"Play No Games" - Cocoa Brovaz ft. Mr. Yuk and Animal Cub
"The Ha Ha Ha" - Craig Mack
"Watch Yo Mouth" - Deacon the Villain
"Double Up" - Royal Flush, Big L, Kool G Rap ft. Ma Barker
