			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.25mag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/quest.jpg" rel="shadowbox[sbpost-4671];player=img;"><img class="aligncenter" title="quest" src="http://www.25mag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/quest.jpg" alt="" width="579" height="212" /></a></p>
<p>Twitter has played host to many rap beefs and quarrels—remember 9<sup>th</sup> Wonder and Phonte of Little Brother?— and this time rapper, Lupe Fiasco has bumped heads with popular rap blog, Nah Right and former producer, Prolyfic.</p>
<p><span id="more-4671"></span></p>
<p>In an effort to convince Atlantic record executives to support the immediate release of Lupe Fiasco’s album, <em>LASERS</em>, he started a <a href="http://bit.ly/9JOyOf" target="_blank">petition</a>— according to Fiasco it has garnered 10,000 signatures. The unorthodox tactic gained the disapproval of some members of the entertainment industry including the head of Nah Right, Eskay, and Fiasco’s former producer Prolyfic who both took to the internet to share their thoughts on Lupe’s career.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.25mag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/prolyfic.jpg" rel="shadowbox[sbpost-4671];player=img;"><img class="size-full wp-image-4676 aligncenter" title="prolyfic" src="http://www.25mag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/prolyfic.jpg" alt="" width="473" height="217" /></a></p>
<p>Read the rest of Prolyfic’s tweets <a href="http://www.thehoodnerd.com/on-blast-lupes-former-producer-calls-him-out-on-twitter" target="_blank">here</a>.</p>
<p>Among Lupe Fiasco’s responses was:</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.25mag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/lupe-to-pro.jpg" rel="shadowbox[sbpost-4671];player=img;"><img class="size-full wp-image-4674 aligncenter" title="lupe to pro" src="http://www.25mag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/lupe-to-pro.jpg" alt="" width="477" height="225" /></a></p>
<p>When posting Lupe Fiasco’s latest release, “B.M.F. (Building Minds Faster,” on <a href="http://nahright.com/news/2010/07/26/lupe-fiasco-b-m-f-building-minds-faster/" target="_blank">Nah Right</a>, Eskay included some choice words:</p>
<p>But it didn’t end there; Lupe Fiasco (@Lupefiasco), NahRight (@nahright) and Prolyfic (@prolyfthegift) took to twitter and continued to voice their opinions on their public profiles.</p>
<p>Here are a few highlights, check their timelines for the extensive back and forth.</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.25mag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/lupe-to-nah.jpg" rel="shadowbox[sbpost-4671];player=img;"><img class="size-full wp-image-4675 aligncenter" title="lupe to nah" src="http://www.25mag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/lupe-to-nah.jpg" alt="" width="476" height="227" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.25mag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/nah-to-lupe.jpg" rel="shadowbox[sbpost-4671];player=img;"><img class="size-full wp-image-4673 aligncenter" title="nah to lupe" src="http://www.25mag.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/nah-to-lupe.jpg" alt="" width="476" height="235" /></a></p>
<p>Try to keep up.</p>
