Video: Cons Clarifies Pusha T Biting Accusations

Thursday, February 17th, 2011

On Saturday morning, the rap world woke up and listened to Pusha T’s “My God” (that is, if they hadn’t already heard it the night before when Flex dropped it). On Saturday morning, Cons woke up and fired some shots at Pusha, which took everyone by surprise at first because Cons wasn’t being clear about why he was making “biting” accusations.

Until this video came out. In it, Consequence explains there was a line in Pusha’s song that sounded like it was both a shot and a veiled reference to a line in one of Consequence’s songs that Kanye wanted Pusha T to rap on.

it’s The Last Supper for you n***as just the picture repainted – Pusha T

vs.

“it’s The Last Supper for you motherfuckers, I don’t make a promise I can’t keep” – Consequence

Cons also announces he’ll be releasing the song in question (“The Last Supper”) as a bonus when he drops the untagged version of Movies on Demand 2 on iTunes.
