    NENE dropped a Chanmina and SKY-HI diss track:

     

    SKY-HI already responded:

     

     

    We'll see if Chanmina pays her any mind. They both debuted around the same time, but Chanmina completely dwarfed NENE success-wise, so some bitterness is expected.

    Seems like NENE was ripping off another female rapper, who dropped two disses, one subtle, one direct:

    Hello, a reminder that there are 2 weeks left until the deadline. So far I have only one ballot from Curaga, and if I don't have at least 5 by the deadline, then the rate will have to be indefinitely postponed. Let me know if you aren't interested anymore or, if I didn't tag you but you're interested, let me know, too, I'll send another batch of reminders next week.
