Game has been trying to get a rise out of Jay for years, almost to the point of obsession.

Jim Jones’ buddy Cam’ron had a few sharp words as well, but he never got a dis song. A former associate, Peedi Crakk, put out an entire Jay-Z-targeting album called Camel Face Hunting Season, and never heard back. Jay’s highly effective approach these past few years has been one of total calm. Pretty much the only exception: When Jim Jones (peeved at some label politics from when Jay-Z was running Def Jam) went at him, Jay mostly shrugged it off, explaining to Funkmaster Flex that Jones was “like the ninth guy off the bench just shouting ‘You a bum’ to the superstar on court putting up 50 every night.” Then he released a response track - the mostly forgotten “ Brooklyn.”

Since patching things up with Nas in 2005, Jay has barely bothered to engage with other beefing rappers. The sad thing, though, is that we’re probably never going to get a response from Jay-Z. On new track “Its Good,” Wayne responds, taking a veiled shot: “Talkin ’bout baby money? I got your baby money / Kidnap your bitch, get that ‘how much you love your lady’ money.” To clarify: Lil Wayne is threatening to kidnap Beyonce for ransom money. As Forbes keeps reminding us, Jay-Z does indeed have more money than Baby, and therefore this boast would be accurate, if a bit dickish. Birdman, the hip-hop entrepreneur Wayne considers a surrogate father. But to those looking for trouble, Jay was possibly referencing Baby, a.k.a. The line in question was Jay’s, “I’m like really half a billion nigga, really you got baby money / Keep it real with niggas, niggas ain’t got my lady’s money.” To some it looked like Jay was harmlessly poking his competition by explaining their bank accounts are so piddling that they’re practically in line with those of newborn humans, and easily dwarfed by the riches accumulated by his chick, Beyoncé. Way back in January, Jay-Z and Kanye West dropped “H.A.M.” and sparked rumors of beef. Right now, though, all anyone wants to talk about is his Jay-Z dis. The album will get an official release on iTunes at midnight on Sunday after Wayne’s performing at the VMAs, but way before then consensus will have formed as to whether or not he delivered on the hype. It’s his first album since his prison stint, and his first proper album since 2008’s Tha Carter III (in between came the rushed I Am Not a Human Being and his much-maligned alt-rock side project, Rebirth) - and, therefore, it’s a big deal. Lil Wayne’s Tha Carter IV leaked last night.
