Jigga
Cormega
Prodigy
Nature

^^^^ yup, on the stillmatic album, either and destroy and rebuild

^ yeah thats right. I wanna know why he dissed Cormega? :confused:

Where did this all start and why? A lot of kats don't really know the whole story to this Nas vs Cormega beef or how it even elevated to this level. Back in 1995 The Firm was a highly anticipated crew put together by Nas including Az, Foxy Brown and Cormega. You can check out the Nas album entitled It was written and check affirmative action and see the original Firm take charge. Cormega starts spittin' on this cut and ends it with these lyrics "Mega the pretty boy with mafia connections it's the firm nigga". Later that year Foxy brown came out with a maxi single for her track with Jay-z entitled "I'll be" off her "Ill Na Na" album. On her maxi single you can check the cut called "La firmilia", and Cormega is nowhere to be found. Cormega who at the time was in prison on cocaine charges had been replaced by Nature.

In October of 1997 The Firm released its self-entitled album on Uni/Interscope Records and Nature had stolen Cormega's spot. Cormega had already been released from jail and had put together his first album on Def Jam Records due to of been released September 8th 1998. The album entitled "The Testament" had been pushed back time after time making it almost impossible for Cormega's album to ever be released. Cormega released a song entitled "Fuck Nas & Nature” on his own and lyrically dissected Nas and Nature. Cormega continued putting songs on his own out, eventually some of the songs intended to appear on "The Testament" album leaked out over the Internet. Such songs as Dead Man walking, Mega was a rolling stone, Guns n Roses, Testament, Angel dust, and other classic material.

In October of 1998, Def Jam Records released an album entitled "Survival of the Illest", this album featured three songs by Cormega, "Dead man walking, Affirmative action, and Slow down". That would be as close to releasing an album on Def Jam Records, as Cormega would get. Rumors started flaring over the Internet and over Hip-Hop magazines as to how much pull Nas really had in this industry. Magazines and fans blaming the push back of Cormega's album on Nas and his influence over the Hip-Hop community. Cormega struggled to find another record companies to sign him to a deal. One year later in 1999 Cormega finally released a song with Violator entitled "Who can I trust" featuring The Hot Boys. The song was featured on the volume one edition of The Violator album. Cormega's song didn't get any radio play and was not one of the premier singles off the album. Cormega in 2000 finally found a home with the Koch Record Label. In 2001 Cormega put out his first official album entitled "The Realness" which included guest appearances by Tragedy Khadafi, and Mobb deep.

It wasn't much later after that when Cormega had already established himself as one of the hottest artist that Queens Bridge had to offer. Cormega would take shots at Nas on some of his material either freestyles, songs, or even on interviews. At the same time beef between Nas and Jay-z had risen, Jay-z had made a diss track to Nas on his "The Blueprint" album. Nas came back with a freestyle diss soon to be entitled "H to the omo". On that freestyle Nas had taken some shots at Cormega. Cormega came back firing on a freestyle of his own using the same beat that Nas had used with harsh lyrics such as "Nas couldn't pump a reebok". On this Freestyle diss from Cormega towards Nas, Cormega claimed as to being a Ghostwriter for Nas on some of his most classic material.

On December 18th 2001 Nas released his album where he reinvented himself as Stillmatic. Regaining Hip-Hop's top spot and conquering top honors. Nas put a monstrous comeback diss entitled "Destroy and Rebuild" where Nas took Cormega apart limb by limb. This track was an instant Hip-Hop classic, Hip-Hop heads in the urban communities were left with there jaws open in disbelief. Cormega didn't sit down and take the punishment he came back with another freestyle diss towards Nas entitled "Poetry". Cormega's second album to be released June 25, 2002 entitled "The True meaning", has already turned heads. This album features a few disses towards Nas, especially one of the four top tracks on this album entitled "A slick Response". Where Cormega tells a Nas story over the The Notorious B.I.G.'s classic Juicy beat.

In Hip-Hop there have been a lot of wars including LL cool J vs Canibus, Eminem vs Cage, 2pac vs The Notorious B.i.g., Jay-z vs Nas, Eminem vs Canibus, Bad Boy vs Death Row, East vs West and now this soon to be classic beef between Nas and Cormega. Where exactly is this beef going to or to what extents will this beef be taken to, where and exactly how high it will rise nobody knows. I am sure of one thing though, I guarantee you its only the beginning so don't take this beef too lightly because the best is still to come!

^ thanx Eazzy for clearin that shit up, I didn't realize they STILL had beef, I thought it had dies down or sumthin.

I think Mega pretty much squashed it in some interview I read once or someone posted on here or someshit.

Good breakdown but you missed a few things

Mega actually recorded a verse for La Firmilia but it never made it onto the actual record

The freestyle containing 'Nas couldn't pump a reebok' and other classic lines such as 'Comin at me usin Rakims rhyme flow' and 'without me, would there even be, an eye double ell em ay tee eye see'; Is called Realmatic, if you aint heard it, get it

Mega also released a song featuring Mobb Deep dissing Nas entitled 'Thun & Kicko'

'A Slick Response' doesn't feature on the True Meaning.. The only mention of Nas on the True Meaning is 'Love in Love Out', where he doesn't actually diss Nas outright, more gives his reasons for the beef becoming...

The beef is over... Nas dont want none with Cormega, and Mega openly declares his admiration for Nas... I think thats what Esocra refers to, I posted on here a while back that Mega was asked who he thought was really making a difference in hip hop and making real hiphop music, his answer was Nas.. He then went onto say that 'Nas is still his boy' though he doubts they'll ever get on the same again

Some good bedtime reading there haha, actually reading into this beef and hearing ALL the freestyles n diss tracks has made Cormega my number one rapper... Lyrically, Nas is the better MC but Mega's whole aura and, well Realness on the mic astounds me... Nas might be the King of New York and the most coveted rapper, but Mega has his own place in hip hop that nobody can touch, he's 100% unique, un-fucking-touchable

Cormega's a beast...

yea cormega is tight, and yea that beef is def ova, idk if this was in that long ass thing, but nas also had beef with 'beanie siegel' i believe, (or however u spell it) this was a while ago, on nastradamus, it wasnt big, and beanie basically was bitchin at nas askin y he was comin at a new rapper n shit...again nuthn big but still there

k i was layin down and it came to me, that it was memphis bleek not beanie, memphis said in one of his songs, 'imma ball till i fall' then nas says u 'u wana ball till u fall i can help u wit that, u want beef, i can let a slug melt in ya hat.' a sub shot to MB

i cant believe nobody even mentioned the 2pac beef.......

It wasn't really a beef...


Pac just dissed him like he dissed most rappers...

Not sure but I don't think that Nas dissed him back...

true but lots of people call it a beef, so much that they officially squashed it......just tryin to sort this out.......and im pretty sure that Nas didn't respond.........

Cormega is tight. Jigga will blow yo fukin brains out though, wit his legendary status haters best ta watch it. And NAS lyrically destroys.

Props to both Nas and Hov.

is it pronounced something like Hoe? or Who?

Nas did diss Tupac "The Message" on the album It Was Written - 1996 was a comeback to against all odds.. no names are mentioned but the second verse is amed at Pac
