Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ladies and gentleman
I'd like to welcome y'all here tonight
You all are about to witness
One of the greatest battle to ever go down in hip-hop
In this corner
I'd like to introduce Cassidy the problem

It's the problem bitch

And in that corner is Cassidy the hustla

It's the hustler ask about me

Battler to the center of the ring
I want a nice clean battle I don't want you spittin
None of that shit you was spittin last week last month
I want it off the top of the head
I don't want your mom ad-libbing your shit
I don't want your man ad-libbing your shit
Touch mics let's go

I'm in the zone boy and I got the chrome boy
I'll have blood gushing out your dome on your homeboy
I'm a threat see you should of left me alone boy
I'm real to the chromosome you a clone boy
Chicks get bone I'm know for getting dome boy
Probably got your baby moms number in my phone boy
And if I hittin the click up dick sucks
Had your bitch in the telly throwin her 'six" up
Yea we made her lick nuts then hop on the 6 bus
After this over than they gon try say this was fixed up
They gon be like he cheated that's why he beated
I've been in wild battles and won I'm undefeated
The punch lines that I put in the streets
Even made freeway say "put on a beat"
Only the strong pre-vail I know but a shell
Make him yell like hoes when I perfom hotel

What? I told you this nigga wasn't fuckin with me you can't be serious

Whoa whoa whoa break it up break it up battlers back to your corner

Look kid I told you this shit wasn't gonna be easy

It's ain't gonna be hard

I told you this kid was a problem he not fuckin with you though

He ain't no problem

I need you to get in there hit 'em with those punch lines, those metaphors
You gotta make sure your flow your delivery
You gotta make sure all that's on point
Hurt his feelings, bite his head off

Listen to this all that lip will get you and your man bodied
I'm the man you a bitch in a man's body
You a disgrace who wrote your shit? mase?
Your album wasn't nothing like the shit on the mix tapes
First you was hustling bustin them shells
Then you went commercial to get a couple of sells
That's what you got a couple of sells
And you probably wouldn't of sold loads if wasn't for kels
Well you was crazy man with the punch line flow
But now you the ladies man where the punch lines go
Yo it don't get no better
You was smiling chi-town stepping but ain't get no cheddar
If you a star I'm a galaxy nigga
One verse'll merk all your personalities nigga
You garbage and ain't nothing trash about me
I'm the hustler muthafucker ask about me, ask about me pussy

Oh shit break it up break it up back to your corners
This the last round I want y'all to both spit eight bars a piece
No more than eight bars
Cassidy, the problem I want you to go first
Then Cassidy the hustla I want you to go next
You ready? get in

I got shit on lock
Like I'm constipated you will get abominated
I ain't lyricist of the year but I was nominated
Where your strip at you ain't hustling nigga
That track would have been wack if it wasn't for jigga
I'm a ladies man chicks loving a nigga
But I'll still put a slug in a nigga braat
Real funny I went gold but get money on the road
And I own a hundred percent of my publishing nigga

Ok ok ok that's it that's it
Cassidy the hustler you ready?
It's your turn eight bars, let's go

You don't really want the drama nigga
You'll take more shots in your face then Madonna nigga
You get ate I'm like dahmer nigga
You don't battle you make songs for the chicks like mashonda nigga
The best is me I got stripes like a referee
And coke comin on boats like a refugee
You should switch flow nigga your shits gold
When I drop I'ma shit more than your shit sold nigga

That's it that's it it's over it's over we have a winner
The new heavyweight freestyle champion of the world
Cassidy the hustla

Geah it is what it is don't act surprise

Okay kid what are you planning to do after this victory





I mean you know keep getting money keep hustling keep doing what I do
And if you bastards doubt me

Your rap is embarrassing, did someone else write it? Perhaps Mase?


Your album wasn't nothing like the shit on the mix tapes
Your album was a disappointment compared to your mixtape tracks


First you was hustling bustin them shells
At first, you portrayed yourself as a tough drug dealer


Then you went commercial to get a couple of sells
But then you sold out, aiming for mainstream success


That's what you got a couple of sells
Your compromise only yielded mediocre sales


And you probably wouldn't of sold loads if wasn't for kels
Without R. Kelly's support, you wouldn't have sold many records


Well you was crazy man with the punch line flow
You used to be known for your clever punchlines


But now you the ladies man where the punch lines go
Nowadays, you focus more on appealing to women, the punchlines are lacking

If you consider yourself a star, then I'm on a whole other level


One verse'll merk all your personalities nigga
One of my verses can easily defeat all your different rap personas


You garbage and ain't nothing trash about me
You are worthless, but I'm exceptional

Oh shit break it up break it up back to your corners
Stop the fight once again, return to your corners

Keep your rap within the specified limit of eight bars


Cassidy, the problem I want you to go first
Cassidy, the formidable opponent, you start


Then Cassidy the hustla I want you to go next
Then Cassidy, the skilled hustler, it's your turn


You ready? get in
Are you prepared? Start rapping


I got shit on lock
I have complete control over my situation


Like I'm constipated you will get abominated
Just like someone struggling with constipation, you'll be defeated in an unpleasant manner


I ain't lyricist of the year but I was nominated
I may not have won the award for best lyricist, but I was recognized as a contender


Where your strip at you ain't hustling nigga
What happened to your territory? You're not actively hustling


That track would have been wack if it wasn't for jigga
Your song would have been terrible if not for Jay Z's contribution


I'm a ladies man chicks loving a nigga
I have a way with women; they find me attractive


But I'll still put a slug in a nigga braat
Nevertheless, I'm not afraid to use violence against my enemies


Real funny I went gold but get money on the road
Ironically, I achieved moderate success in album sales, but I make most of my money through performances


And I own a hundred percent of my publishing nigga
I maintain full control over my royalties and publishing rights


Ok ok ok that's it that's it
Alright, it's over, no need to continue


Cassidy the hustler you ready?
Cassidy, the skilled hustler, are you prepared?


It's your turn eight bars, let's go
It's your opportunity to rap eight lines, begin


You don't really want the drama nigga
You aren't truly prepared for the conflict


You'll take more shots in your face then Madonna nigga
I will hit you with a barrage of insults and attacks


You get ate I'm like dahmer nigga
You will be consumed and destroyed, similar to Jeffrey Dahmer's victims


You don't battle you make songs for the chicks like mashonda nigga
You focus on making music for women, like the artist Mashonda


The best is me I got stripes like a referee
I'm the superior rapper, with a reputation like a referee's striped uniform


And coke comin on boats like a refugee
I have a steady supply of cocaine arriving by boat, just like refugees seeking solace


You should switch flow nigga your shits gold
You should change your rap style, mine is more valuable


When I drop I'ma shit more than your shit sold nigga
When I release new music, it will outsell your entire discography


That's it that's it it's over it's over we have a winner
That's the conclusion, we have a clear winner


The new heavyweight freestyle champion of the world
The newly crowned champion of freestyle rap


Cassidy the hustla
Congratulations to Cassidy, the skilled hustler


Geah it is what it is don't act surprise
This is the reality, don't act shocked


Okay kid what are you planning to do after this victory
Alright, what are your plans following this triumphant moment?


I mean you know keep getting money keep hustling keep doing what I do
I will continue to focus on making money, hustling, and doing what I'm best at


And if you bastards doubt me
And if any of you doubt my abilities
