Lil Tjay is being used as “media bait” by 21 Savage.

The hip-hop community was buzzing recently when 21 Savage and Lil Tjay unexpectedly found themselves in a heated dispute. It all began during a social media livestream, where Lil Tjay mentioned 21 Savage’s name mockingly regarding his rap style and claimed that “21 is just an arrogant jerk who doesn’t respect his juniors.”

The Fuse Is Lit

Immediately, 21 Savage fired back on Twitter, asserting that Lil Tjay “lacks respect for those who came before him,” while accusing Lil Tjay of “always pulling stunts for attention.” Fans on both sides jumped into the fray, engaging in heated debates on social media and forming camps in support of their idols.

Rumors and Speculations

Many rumors suggest that the conflict between these two rappers stems from Lil Tjay once wanting to collaborate with 21 Savage, but the project was canceled at the last minute without any clear explanation. Others argue it’s merely a “publicity stunt” aimed at attracting attention before both artists drop new music.

Career Consequences?

While some believe 21 Savage is simply “taking it out on Tjay” due to pressure from an upcoming album, others insist Lil Tjay is “trying to gain clout” by taking shots at a big name like 21 Savage. However, the feud may backfire, as audiences could grow tired of the drama and shift their focus away from the music.

No Signs of Cooling Down

At present, no one knows where the 21 Savage–Lil Tjay conflict will end. Both are still trading barbs on social media. Fans eagerly await whether they’ll settle their differences amicably or escalate the drama further—possibly with an official diss track.

Regardless of the truth, the hip-hop community generally believes that music is what truly cements a rapper’s status. And who knows—after all this turmoil, they might join forces to produce a legendary collaboration that shakes the rap world.
