Funkmaster Flex has never been one to hold back his opinion, especially when it comes to the heavy hitters in hip-hop.
Tasha K recently shared a video of the legendary DJ taking direct shots at Jay-Z, claiming the reason Hov stays away from the internet drama isn’t because he’s “too cool” for it, but because he can’t handle the heat.
“Jay-Z who? Listen, hold on. Do you realize that Jay-Z… I’m gonna tell you about Jay-Z! You want me to tell you about Jay-Z? You know he wanted me to tell you why he can’t be on social media?,” he stated in response to Gillie da Kid and Wallo.
When pressed for the reason why the billionaire mogul avoids the platforms, Flex claimed it all comes down to a lack of thick skin. He went as far as to say that Jay-Z is actually lurking in the shadows of the internet under a different identity. He broke it down by saying, “Because he’s the most sensitive motherfucker on the planet and he can’t take niggas in his comments telling him the truth, okay? Yeah. He can’t take it. He can’t open up social media. You know what Jay does? He watches social media from a fake page.”
The revelation clearly caught the two off guard, leading Wallo to ask, “Yo, what’s up with you and Jay?” But Flex stood ten toes down on his claims, insisting that he was simply pulling back the curtain on how the rap icon really moves behind the scenes.
He responded by saying, “It’s not but I’m giving you the truth!” While Jay-Z has always maintained an air of mystery and exclusivity, Flex is making it clear that the silence might just be a defense mechanism against the unfiltered world of the comment section.
(#AD) Funkmaster Flex just turned the volume ALL the way up on Jay-Z 👀 According to Flex, Hov stays off social media because he’s “too sensitive” for the comments. But allegedly still peeks in from a fake page to see what folks are saying.🤔 pic.twitter.com/71ecISq5zi
