Imagine being the first artist in history to have your rap battle L cemented in a federal court opinion. 😭

Judge Vargas literally wrote that “‘Not Like Us’ dealt the metaphorical killing blow.”
Bro didn’t just lose the beef — he made it legally binding.

Take his shoestrings. 💀👟

Bruh Drake lost. It's done. You still arguing different is a tragic moral failure on your part. Out rapped. Outsold. Out awarded. Dissed at the super bowl while his ex crip walked on stage. And lost in a court of law. Only thing left is for Kendrick to adopt Adonis and give a father to look up to.

Does Nike Basketball have an account on here? I wanna remind them that they gave Sabrina Ionescu’s unserious ass a shoe before A’ja.

The epitome of “we gotta work twice as hard to get half as much.”

Plus her being more of a presence on offense is only going to make it harder to deal with those Guards

I get it with the way she be elbowing the fuck out of everyone’s favorite player, then acting like nothing happened.

Everyone from A’ja to Phee to Jonquel to BG be about ready to fight lol

But she provides something unique & something they need, on both ends

She need to be fed more imo

I’m so sick of her going 6/11 every game for 15 efficient, but underwhelming Points.

When Jessica of Nazareth gets back next year, some of them bricked-up step-back Threes need to become Aliyah post-ups.

There ain’t no need for that many Turnovers and that many contested jumpers when you have AB

People (including the Fever organization) really need to wake up, as it to relates to what Aliyah Boston is/could be

She’s a DPOY level defender & the only person in the league (maybe Dominique Malonga soon enough) who can do anything with A’ja

On top of that, they need to give her the damn ball!

‘And now you got these young cats
acting like they slung caps.
All in they dumb raps
talking bout how they funds stack.

When I see them in the street,
I don’t see NONE of that.
Damn, playboy,
where the fuck is the Hummer at?’

(Me asking CC fans why they talk all that shit with no hardware)

Joe Louis Clark @joelouisclark.bsky.social · 13h

I had two songs on repeat on the way to work this morning.

1) I Really Mean It x The Diplomats
2) Imaginary Players x Jay-Z

That’s the kinda mood A’ja got me in.

“Y’all niggas dreamed it,
I’ve SEEN it.
Body warm, heart anemic
(I REALLY MEAN IT!)”

A’ja is Stevie Wonder. Beyoncé. Michael Jackson. Denzel Washington. Angela Basset. James Brown. Aretha Franklin!

She basically made Songs In The Key Of Life this season, and y’all out here whining about how your faves got passed over.

I don’t give a fuck! Either make Thriller or shutcho ass up!

Not just delusional fans either. Like, people who cover the games. People who get to see the shit in person.

2022: MVP. DPOY. Championship.

2023: DPOY. Championship. Finals MVP. (robbed of MVP)

2024: Greatest Statistical Season Ever. Unanimous MVP. Olympic MVP.

2025: “someone else better”

Coming back to this nonsense once again sir, because what the hell were you even talking about?

This ain’t college sports. This ain’t no beauty pageant. Winning is the only thing that matters. Don’t nobody care if you were personally impressed by playoff WINS

Richard Cohen @richardcohen.bsky.social · 8d

I'm sorry, but all the stories about the Aces' incredible drive, how they powered back to the Finals fueled by all the doubters, ring a bit hollow to me. A putback away from going out to a 7-seed. OT in G5 vs 6-seed with no players left. They're alive, but my god it's a skin-of-the-teeth job. #WNBA

Joe Louis Clark @joelouisclark.bsky.social · 1d

A’ja ain’t chasing nobody in her own league.

Her peers are Serena Williams. Simone Biles. Muhammad Ali. Michael Jordan. Tiger Woods. LeBron James.

One of the greatest ATHLETES of all-time.

The GOAT debate is light work
