KRS-One ░░ did not agree with that and released the song ôSouth Bronxö in response. ░░ These two songs started what is now known as The Bridge Wars. Not only ░░ did KRS-One believe he won this battle, the consensus of the fans also ░░ believed that KRS-One and his group, BDP, had won. ░░ ░░ In 2016, with the release of MC ShanÆs 3 minute freestyle, the beef from ░░ 30 years prior was reignited. In the interview, in which he released his ░░ 3-minute freestyle, MC Shan stated ôIÆm not going to do it on the ░░ strength of oh I got something to prove, yall gonna pay me!ô. With this ░░ being said some might think MC Shan might be bringing this back up as a ░░ power play, looking to gain money or fame once again. Others may think of ░░ this as a classic rap battle making its second wind. Either way this has ░░ brought both of their names back into the headlines. After the song ░░ ôS.H.A.N." was released, MC Shan came back with the song ôRevenge of the ░░ Walking Deadö and KRS-One with the song ôTake Em Outö. ░░ ░░ Regarding MC ShanÆs statement about making money of the battle this time ░░ around KRS-One raps: ░░ ░░ ôF--- a million dollar battle, I make your car rattle. You ainÆt making ░░ no money off me slave, youÆre a chattel. Me? IÆm a free man, where your ░░ shows at?ö ░░ ░░ Referencing one of his diss tracks towards MC Shan, ôThe Bridge is Overö, ░░ KRS-One mentions another rapper from Queensbridge who came to fame almost ░░ a decade after his and MC ShanÆs beef, Nas. ░░ ░░ ôCause of you the Bridge was over. Till Nas came back with Illmatic. You ░░ donÆt even rap good, G you not hood. YouÆre the opposite of Nas. Just ░░ spell your name backwards.ö ░░ ░░ KRS-One preemptively strikes, saying that MC Shan can only win if he ░░ copies him and flips his name to Shan-Won. ░░ ░░ ôYou done, the only way you gonna win this battle, is if you bite my name ░░ and call yourself Shan-One with a ôWö, but you donÆt even think that ░░ fast.ö ░░ ░░ At the end of the song KRS-One brings up the subject of how it has been ░░ 30 years since their beef originated. ░░ ░░ ôWhat's up? After 30 years you just stand up? After 30-something years ░░ you just man up?ö ░░ ░░ hahahahaah ░░ ░░ I've had this one sitting in my archives in WAV format for a while, and ░░ it looks like it never made an album, although another Shan diss record ░░ did--"Take Em Out" as a bonus track from the album "Now Hear This ░░ (Remastered Deluxe Edition)." This particular track has since been ░░ removed from KRS-One's Bandcamp, but was originally a free download at: ░░ ░░ krsone.bandcamp.com/track/still-huggin-a-nut-s-h-a-n ░░ ░░ Thank you Wayback Machine! ░░ ░░ So, semi-exclusive? I'm not sure where else you'll find it besides ░░ YouTube. And a final thought regarding the track's disappearance from ░░ Bandcamp... STREAMING IS BAD FOR MUSIC HISTORY! Ok, enjoy! ░░ ░░ Internal cause it was free.
