In the last few days, the white rap world has been up in a frenzy with Alabama rapper Yelawolf resurfacing into mainstream media recently with his new “Bloody Sunday” freestyle which took shots at some of the most prominent white artists in the game today. The Shady Record signee drops some triggering bars for his fellow white artist in the game those being G-Eazy, Post Malone, and Machine Gun Kelly.
Yelawolf in the track is offering up free smoke as he unloads a clip of bars for G-Eazy first as you can see some of the lyrics below. He insults G-Eazy rap skills comparing them to 90’s white rapper Vanilla Ice who’s infamous for his one hit wonder “Ice Ice Baby” track. He also throws a reference from Tom Cruise’s film “Vanilla Sky” but all of this seem rooted in a clouded relationship between G-Eazy and Eminem.
“Is this the guy that said he was the hottest white boy since the one with dyed blonde hair? Hold up, G… easy, I can’t let this Tom Cruise lookin’ motherfucker just paddle by / Don’t know if I’m watching Vanilla Ice or Vanilla Sky / Marshall Mathers may have ignored you / But if you want the smoke, bring the foil / I’ll boil you till the kettle’s dry.”
Next Yelawolf had his radar locked in on Post Malone and calls him out for being an “appropriation thief”. Post Malone has been accused in the past of being a culture vulture for his comments of separating himself from hip-hop despite gaining mainstream status due to his association with the culture. Yelawolf ultimately was only talking about Post Malone appropriating the southern cowboy aesthetic look when he’s a white boy from Syracuse, New York.
“Who else? I would diss Post Malone but he don’t even rap / Fuck it, fuck Post Malone, just because, let’s see if he answers back”
“All that change, tits, and funk chill bill, and the cowboy boots and hats / Damn Posty, can’t we be friends? Our clothes already match / Poser, biter, appropriation thief, give a fuck how many records you sold / Every fan you made is a leaf off of my tree.”
The two artists would go back and forth on social media with Post Malone calling Yelawolf a “nerd” and claiming that the rapper wished to be like him.
also Yelawolf is a nerd, and this tweet is the only support I will offer his album :)also @Yelawolf please show me all your chill bill shit please! Last I heard you was talking about how you wanted your shit like mine, I have a couple lenders, don’t worry! hmu dad 🙂

Yelawolf would respond with an Instagram post daring both rappers Post Malone and G-Eazy to come back at him with a diss track of their own.
Yelawolf also had words for his longtime rival Machine Gun Kelly as well but stated he would re-frame from making a statement as he raps “Trunk Muzik III bruh, you gon’ know how I feel about MGK,” The “Trunk Muzik III” project is the 3rd installment in the series and is due to drop this year but no release date has been given yet as this will serve as the last release under Eminem’s Shady Records label.
