Cuuuuurtis!

Yeah Killa Cam and Curtis got beef. Yawn. Well, actually, not yawn. As rap beefs go, this has been pretty amusing so far. It has to be said that Dipshit are very funny when it comes to rap wars (just ask Jay Z and his sandles and Nas and his kufi).Whether it's that Harlem swagger, the knowledge they have a movement behind them, or just that they're some funny f*ckers, Cam and co are always entertaining.

Kicking off with Cam'Ron's over-hyper call to 50 at the Angie Martinez show ('Curtis. Curtis. How many did Mobb Deep sell, Curtis? Cuuuurtis, how many did Lloyd Banks sell?'), 50 quickly put out the Funeral, demoting Cam from Capo to soldier. Ouch. Giles followed up with a Ballin' based diss but 50 came back just as quick with a video shot live and direct from his Connecticut garage. Complete with girls lathering themselves in the shower, Yayo waving about his bucky and Cent's cocky sneer, I have to say it's all pretty good viewing so far.

No doubt Cam and Jim are lining the next one up as we speak, helping Jimmy push a few more units (with him and Banks both on 300,000, no doubt he's dying to get a few more on Lloyd). And while 50 is getting ready to release another album leading people to wonder if this is just more standard 'G Unit PR Machine', this doesn't seem to be contrived a la Game/ Massacre. I could be wrong, but I think Cent is gonna come good with album 3. Curtis has got something to prove and I think Dipset might just put that little extra pressure on his steroid-sized neck.

'Cuuuuuuurtis.'
