Big Sean Apparently Disses Kanye West In On The Radar Freestyle

Big Sean appears to take shots at Kanye West in a new freestyle for On the Radar Radio, rapping over Aaliyah's classic hit "If Your Girl Only Knew."

The Detroit rapper opens the freestyle by seemingly referencing Kanye's disparaging comments about him on a 2021 episode of Drink Champs, where Kanye said signing Sean to G.O.O.D. Music was the worst thing he ever did.

Sean raps, "I had to switch the home team cause they committed treason. N****s looking for engagement like they got their knee bent. I got better things to do than to find someone to beef with."

He also seems to criticize Kanye's matching tattoos with Lil Uzi Vert and Steve Lacy, spitting, "Man this industry is terrible I can't even vouch. I've seen grown men get matching tattoos for the clout." Additionally, Sean pays tribute to Aaliyah and fellow Detroit icon J Dilla by hanging a Dilla cap on his microphone stand at the end of his performance.

Some speculated that Big Sean's bars were aimed at Kendrick Lamar, but DJ Hed confirmed on Twitter that the Compton rapper wasn't the target. Sean addressed the freestyle on social media, expressing frustration with critics and emphasizing his focus on music. Despite recent appearances suggesting improved relations with Kanye, including previewing an unreleased collaboration, Sean seems to be addressing lingering tensions in his latest work.
