![]() ![]() The whole song reads as an obsessive, jealous tirade that seeks to piggyback off the popularity of other local artists. Some hot goss that’s circulating in the Portland hip-hop scene has to do with a fresh rap beef that emerged out of the buttfuck nowhere: Long-standing NE Portland rapper HANiF (FKA Luck-One) recently dropped a new song and video,”Identity Fraud (Wynne diss),” the sole point of which is apparently to take shots at Lake Oswego-raised rapper Wynne! (Wynne now resides in Portland, has a viral internet following, and has garnered support from the local hip-hop community.) Over a sample from Jay Z’s Blueprint track “Takeover,” HANiF makes various harsh jabs at the 23-year-old for attending Oregon State (she actually went to the University of Oregon), being from Lake Oswego but repping Portland, her body, and calls her out for so-called “cultural appropriation.” The takedown track also pulls from the chorus in the Jay Z song: “Northeast Portland, we runnin this rap shit/ Southeast Portland, we run this rap shit /St Johns, we built this rap shit/ The fuck back to Lake Oswego, that wack shit.” He also takes shots at stalwart North Portland rapper Mic Capes, acclaimed producer TROX, and Wynne collaborator Dame Lillard (“a loser who’s trying his hand at music”). ![]() Some local music buzz to put on your radar.
