When news about P Yungin’s passing circulated, Lil Dump made an obscure comment during his live session.
Reportedly, in a story that has since been removed, Lil Dump was claiming that P Yungin was playing possum to drop a music video.
However, Lil Pump isn’t the only one intriguing people’s attention. NBA Youngboy’s brother, OG3Three, was sharing a cryptic photo with the song, Body for Body.
The initial trigger between P Yungin and OG3Three was allegedly a clash over creative visions and loyalty among the group.
P Yungin felt overlooked and undervalued, leading him to produce a series of diss tracks targeting OG3Three.
OG3Three retaliated with his own tracks, but the situation intensified when P Yungin unveiled War Cry. Moreover, P Yungin’s beef isn’t just with these rappers; he has also fallen out with other upcoming artists.
