Brisco Disses Gucci Mane and So Icey Ent. "Waka Blaka"

Thursday, January 21st, 2010

It's a shame that there have been so many negative responses to the recent report of rapper Wacka Flocka Flame being shot after a botched robbery.  Some must really dislike Flocka to actually poke fun at the fact that he got hit up.

Florida's own Brisco is one that had his some words for Flame along with Gucci Mane and So Icey Entertainment with the release of the diss track “Waka Blaka”.

Now if history does serve me correct, Brisco, weren't u dealing with your own troubles after reports were saying that you were robbed at a barbershop, had your car stolen and pistol whipped?

If anybody knows if should be you to not kick a man while he's down.

"Oh, Let's Do It"

Unlike some of his rap cohorts, instead of giving an exact date for the drop of an upcoming release, Ludacris just let's it go for the wind to catch it.

Giving his interpretation on tracks such as “Wasted”, “Oh, Let's Do It” and even Robin Thicke's “Sex Therapy”, the GA rapper continues to stake his claim as being one of the top lyricists in the game today and he will ensure that everyone is fully aware of that fact.
