Diddy Under Fire
Uncle Murda kicks things off by addressing one of the hottest topics of 2024: Diddy’s string of legal troubles and controversies. In his verses, Murda does not mince words. He dives right into Diddy’s federal sex trafficking allegations and infamous videotaped assault incident from 2016.

J. Cole’s Apology
