He added that diss tracks don’t “end careers anymore ’cause people don’t have the same pride level about the art.”
According to Pusha, what was once known as artists expressing their true feelings in the booth has become a tame exchange that is managed, or ended, by executives.

“It’s really corporate now. So, it’s like, now, you’ll have a Rap beef and a record label gets involved and the CEO is like, ‘Oh, you can’t do this to my artist.’ And they’ll like—I don’t think they end careers anymore ’cause people don’t have the same like, pride level about the art.” He also said that it is less important now who actually wins a Rap beef, unlike decades ago when people weighed bars and punchlines.
“You know, back in the day, it was career-ending, you know what I’m sayin’?” Pusha said. There were stakes involved “because it was based around the art.” He added, “Nowadays, man, people don’t care. They’re like, ‘Oh, you know, they lost today but whatever. It’s no big deal.’”
