Rapper Big Sean is addressing the buzz surrounding Ludacris’ “Badaboom” track, which supposedly disses Sean and fellow rap star Drake. Sean tried to downplay the dispute between he and Ludacris over who originated what Sean dubbed the ‘Supa Dupa’ flow.

“Ya’ll sure [the song] is about me? ‘Cause I didn’t hear no name or nothing, ” he said. “I ain’t got no problems with Luda, I never did. I think he’s referring to an interview I did over a year ago. Literally over a year ago. But in the interview I said he’s a legend. I respect people who is ahead of me. I respect OGs and the Gs in general. The only thing I said–[the interviewers] was telling me about the “Supa Dupa” flow. They call it the Supa Dupa flow because on Big Sean my second mixtape I had a flow on there where I was using one word to describe another word in a punchline form.”

“I feel like Drake made it more popular on the song ‘Forever.’ A lot of people thought Drake made that up and this was new, and Drake was like, ‘I could trace that back to Big Sean actually on his mixtape. That’s where I first heard it. I think that’s where a lot of emcees got it from,’” he continued. “That’s what Drake said. So people was telling me, ‘This is your flow.’ And I’m like, ‘Alright.’”

“I’m pretty sure it was done before [Luda] but I’m just saying where it came from now,” Sean added. “We talkin’ about now…I’m not trying to debate and say, ‘I was the first to do this ever.’ I’m just saying that’s just where it was between us. So [some interviewers] asked me, ‘What’s a good example of [the Supa Dupa flow] and what’s a bad example of it?’ And I think I said [Luda's] ‘balloons’ line. But I’m telling you this was over a year ago. I can’t believe this was something that’s been lingering this long…I don’t have no problems with Luda. I didn’t even know he cared that much, for a year, to be thinking about what I said in interviews…I think Luda is the best, I think he’s a legend.”

Master P. sought to explain the title of his upcoming album, Too Many Zeros. The New Orleans mogul was contacted by lawyers for gossip media outlet TMZ over the project, which was originally reported as TMZ: Too Many Zeros.

Master P says that the title has nothing to do with the media brand.

“Me and Harvey [Levin, TMZ's founder] is cool,” Master P. told AllHipHop. “I think he’s a great businessman. I don’t have anything against the media or the cameras being on me, that just means I’m relevant.”

Too Many Zeros is P’s first album in four years and is to be released from his No Limit Forever Records imprint.
