Diggy Simmons on J. Cole Diss Song: “It’s Me Sticking Up For My Family”
Posted by Mr.North under Interviews[12] Comments
While the internet still gasps over Diggy Simmons’ diss song to J. Cole, “What You Say To Me.” Russell’s nephew spoke out on the leaked song in an interview with 99.1 KGGI. Diggy confirms that track was old and somehow got leaked, he also mentions he recorded it to stand up for his sister Vanessa Simmons, who felt J. Cole was attacking her on “Purple Rain.”
Listen to the full interview above, while Diggy’s debut album Unexpected Arrival is in stores now.

“Purple Rain” is not on “Friday Night Lights” it was added to the mixtape though it may have come out prior or around the same time of the “Friday Ni…”

How do you feel someone who you had no real relationship with and who didn’t mention you is attacking you?

On “Purple Rain” J. Cole sounded more like he was talking about a real “preachers daughter” and not at all like Rev Run’s daughter.
Diggy says its old and he didn’t leak it, fine. He don’t want it with Cole any at all and we know this.
I can’t speak for whether or not Cole is lying about having relations with Vanessa, I didn’t hear him say he did. He mentions Vanessa after mentioning Diggy on “Grew Up Fast” but he says something like “wat up Vanessa, I loved u that one semester”, not necessarily alluding to sex.
I would like to see what J. Cole’s response is whether interview or song…

its like yea he was on a tv show but in that song he shows a lot of skill that i dident even know he had.it was a diss song but i think he shows he does have talent.everybodys talking about where their from.what girl they messed with but the art of just putting words together rite and showing skill not everyone can do. not saying diggy is nas but how much did nas sell his first week about same as diggy. as a fan its like i dont care how much u sell ppl will buy it if they liked it.but if you own a label or you only go by sales than its a dif story i guess.but w.e lol

i just went and listened to that Grew Up Fast joint to see what all the fuss is about.
Cole killed that… “I’m the deadbeat father of your little brother, in other words, goddamit, I’m a bad motherfu*ker!”
also, if anything, he gave Diggy a shoutout.

So this song was a year old… and his response was a year old… but he didn’t release it then even though he felt he had the right to stick up for his big sis…. BUT…. a year later and horrible album sales and its mysteriously leaked? Hmmmm so i guess I should believe in santa and the tooth fairy too.
1. We know what it is! This is a ploy to not only keep his buzz alive (cause its fading quick) but to also have people who said fuck that album actually go check it out.
2. The handling of Diggy Simmons is horrible. The Machine behind him is like Rosie from the Jetsons… An old model! They need to promote this kid better as well as establish him as diggy and not Russells nephew or Runs son.
3.I don’t have first hand facts but something tells me his sisters are not as holy as there dad painted them on Run’s House.(sarcasm) And I wouldnt be suprised if J.Cole smashed

I agree….
And to end if off.. It doesn’t help that Vanessa is coming out with a lingerie line. I mean this doesn’t mean u are a hoe or anything BUT I don’t think u would see Alicia Keys putting out a lingerie line.
Its a cry for attention… That’s what all of this is. Nobody would be talkin about Diggy or Vanessa right now if it wasn’t for that one song. Its about attention and they are getting it. So it worked… At least a little bit.

the funny thing is he said he was sticking up for his family but he had no intentions of putting the record out.. how can stick up for her in a song that was never supposed to come out.. this kid is a clown, take your average rapping skills and go away like your brother..

98% of the rap game sucks way harder than Diggy. That would make him above average lyrically. Just keeping it 100.
April 4th, 2012 at 2:26 pm
I am keeping it a 100, he stinks.. everybody gassing him up cuz of the low expectations we all had of him.. stop it.
