CYHI THE PRYNCE – ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM (KANYE WEST DISS?)
In the midst of the Drake and Meek Mill feud, CyHi The Prynce drops this track that is seemingly a shot at the man that brought him into G.O.O.D. Music, the one and only Kanye West. CyHi appears to be upset that he’s yet to make any noise on the label and completely goes off. But an alarm clock going off could signal that this is nothing more than a dream. Listen to it and you be the judge.

You Ain’t Built Like That
Tired of hearing about niggas doing it big
But they ain’t big enough to take care of they kids
He be Internet, shooting a vid
Couldn’t even help his baby moms move in the cribIt’s a lot of grown man out who are only concerned with themselves. They make sure they have the new this or that, but then you see their kids. They’re not taking care of their kids. They’re not being fathers. They’re not being real men. That line is basically about that. Step up and be a father to your child and take care of your kids. There are a lot of deadbeat dads out there. A lot of these dudes say they’re flossing and they’re ballers or gangsters, but that don’t make you a gangster if you’re not taking care of your family. So it’s just a line telling these dudes to get their priorities straight. Stop trying to floss on the internet making yourself seem like you’re more than what you are.
Tell you hurry up when it’s time for thugging in the streets
But take they time when they got a plug for you to eatThat line was aimed at individuals who might have an influence over some dudes who are real street niggas, or may be going down the wrong path, and instead of guiding them in the right direction, they’ll call them up for something negative and have them put in some work and then maybe put themselves in bad situation and these dudes won’t put up no lawyer money or bail money. That line goes out to all the real niggas out there, man. Don’t let nobody have you putting in work if they’re not going to support you when shit gets real.
