Chino XL’s Tupac diss track that sparked bitter feud between the two rappers resurfaces after his sudden death at 50
Jul 30, 2024
RAPPER Chino XL's diss track shading Tupac Shakur has resurfaced after 2Pac's former rival died on Sunday at the age of 50.
Tupac responded to a dig in Chino XL's song Riiiot! in 1996 with his infamous song Hit 'Em Up, sparking a feud between the two rappers.
Chino XL, real name Derek Barbosa, died on Sunday morning at his home, according to a statement from his family.
The rapper and actor rose to fame in the 1990s and dropped his debut album Here to Save You All in April 1996.
His seventh track on the album, Riiiot!, included a line name-dropping Tupac - which started the beef between the two rappers.
"By this industry I’m not trying to get f**ked like Tupac in jail," the vicious line said, referencing a rumor circulating at the time that 2Pac had allegedly been sexually assaulted in jail.
Tupac always vehemently denied the claim.
Pac then came for Chino XL, along with other rapper rivals including The Notorious B.I.G. and Diddy, in his iconic diss track Hit 'Em Up.
"Chino XL, f**k you too!" he said on the track.
It's unclear if Tupac and Chino XL made amends before 2Pac was killed at age 25 on September 13, 1996.
