VIDEO: Best Video Beefs Of 2008!

Seriously, beef is wack in hip-hop, but as long as stans and gossip folks alike take pleasure in the little tit-for-tat war of words that goes on amongst the games alike (and up-and-coming), we’ll stay tuned in. With 2008 coming to a close, let’s take a look back at what the best video beefs of 2008 were!

Joe Budden vs. Ransom –

Jump-off Joey and his former rhyme partner, Ransom, exchanged some heated barbs through DJVlad.com, WorldStarHipHop and HoodVision to elaborate on who’s gay, who’s the better rapper and who has Zab Judah like skills.

Yung Berg vs The Entire Industry –

Oh, poor youngin’, he just seemed to not be able to catch a break. With Berg raising the ire of Detroit’s Trick Trick, Ne-Yo, Bow Wow, Brisco, and dark-skinned, chocolatey sistas everywhere, it doesn’t look like anyone’s checking for the homie’s next album.

Ice-T vs. Soulja Boy –

In some weird, alternative universe, it’s quite interesting to see “Colors” penman, Ice-T go in on a 17-year-old. Soulja Boy responded hilariously sonnin’ the Law & Order star and Ice-T ran and got his son.

Soulja Boy vs. Charles Hamilton –

After the Ice-T beef, Cleveland-to-Harlem transplant (and fellow Interscope signee), Charles Hamilton, jumped into the fray with Mr. Tell ‘Em and the jokes were hilarious on both sides.

50 Cent vs. Young Buck –

Being the black sheep is never fun (ask The Game), but you have to respect the level of ingenuity that Mr. Curtis Jackson has to even have this phone conversation. The rest of G-Unit should be worried about what Fiddy has on them!

Lil Wayne vs. 50 Cent –

Even though the beef never made it to verbal sparring on video (on Weezy’s part), 50 highlighted his issue – or lack thereof – with the game’s best rapper. Meanwhile, Lil Weezyana decided to through a few unveiled barbs at the Queensbridge bully.

Katt Williams vs. Steve Harvey/Rickey Smiley –

Even though Smiley has no words on the situation and Steve Harvey is confused as to why Katt is coming at him, it’s been a weird and wacky year for the man known the world over as Katt Williams. Wack points to Jamie for pushing the issue, though…
