Did Andre Nickatina (then Dre Dog) ever call Biggie out?

Posted: 08 Jun 2020 08:32 PM PDT

Andre Nickatina (then Dre Dog) released his album The New Jim Jones in 1993. Biggie released Ready To Die in 1994, and it has some notable similarities:

  • Lips uses the same sample as Big Poppa.
  • The Ave uses the same sample as Juicy.
  • Dre Dog references the nickname "Puff Daddy" in Off That Chewy. Sean Combs seems to have gone by just "Puff" before he released his own album in 1997 [1].

IMO, any of these things could be a coincidence on their own, but taken all together it seems fishy.

Did Dre Dog ever mention all this? His name doesn't appear in the mainstream story of the east vs. west coast rap beef.

[1] this is hard to verify. Wikipedia sort of implies it. A usenet search for "Puff Daddy" returns lots of results for 1997 and older, but nothing for 1996 and older.

Atlanta city councilman talks about how Lil Baby came to meet him and is shocked to see he is deeper than what he expected from his moniker and music. They then went to a BLM protest together

Posted: 07 Jun 2020 06:03 PM PDT

Met a dope dude named Dominique. A brother whose seen struggle but also recognizes his divine power to call forth all that he seeks in life. When we first met he showed up in a worn black t-shirt, some joggers and @balenciaga sneakers. No jewelry or entourage. His driver patiently waited outside while we talked for hours. I thought because everyone called him @lilbaby_1 that he would have this huge ego and only care about superficial shit. Instead he spoke about how much he loved business, fashion and lifting up his community. He's only been rapping for 3 years and has completely dismantled an industry. The hood he grew up in and the projects that raised him made him baby. A rebel with a cause, disrupting with a purpose bigger than himself. ⁣

The next day we marched down Mitchell Street with our fist in the air yelling - No Justice, No Peace as he leaned over and whispered in my ear, "this is what matters!" See he understood his calling was greater than the streets - it was to change the streets. To inspire the people to see beyond their environment and conditions that silently kept them unconsciously imprisoned. After marching for an hour, a white business owner brought out some waters to the crowd of walking protesters. As he was handing out the waters Lil Baby ran over to him and gave him $500. I looked up at him and smiled because if I was rich that's something I would've done. As the protest came to an end, I watched in silent awe as @troubleman31 graciously walked up to him and greeted him like a King. It was inspiring to see one generation salute the next as they prepare to take their rightful place in Hip Hop. ⁣

Our generation is strong, we do not require someone to open a door for us because we understand our power to knock down any door that comes between us. When we speak we are casting spells, our tongue is powerful and through our vibrational energy are able to manifest into existence everything our spirit desires. Go forth into this world and live within the fullness of who God created you to be, and don't let anyone tell you who you cannot be or what you cannot do. You are capable of ALL things, if you believe.
