There's a lot of noise and controversy brewing over a record that has just come out by New Jersey based rapper LP. It's called 'The Truth', and here LP rips into just about every major rap star that's on the map. He starts out by rapping about Ice Cube and his Westside Connection. He notes that they should be on the WB. He comes back and rips into E-40 by saying his style is so annoying he needs to be smacked. He calls DMX 'big headed' and Foxy Brown a man.

He talks about Snoop and how skinny he is... He tells Noreaga that he sounds much better without Capone. The lyrical assault continues with LP screaming on Cam'ron and how wack he's become. He talks about how Charli Baltimore 'sucks... No really you suck!'. The chorus chirps 'If Your Wack Your Wack-If You Suck You Suck-The Truth Hurts'. Now there's no doubt this is a gimmick type song that's in line with the blazing new joint by rap star 50 Cent entitled 'How To Rob An Industry Nigga'. Here 50 Cent does a humorous song in which he fantasizes about running up and bucking down all of today's rap stars..

The LP record has caused a sea of controversy. Here on the West Coast folks don't take to lightly to dis records. While many may see the LP cut as a battle record, others are taking it personal. For example, LP's remarks about E-40 and Snoop prompted folks to call the station and issue threats. What's ironic, is both E-40 and Snoop have been in lyrical battles and have never shied away from such challenges. I personally thought the record was funny.. Peep for it because it will likely show up in your mail box real soon. Just don't expect LP to do any record signings any time soon.
