Virginia rapper Pusha T has addressed fan concerns after a lyric on the new Clipse album sparked mixed reactions. The line in question appears on the track So Far Ahead from Let God Sort Em Out, referencing the tragic 2022 murder of PnB Rock at Roscoe’s Chicken ‘N Waffles in Los Angeles.
The lyric says: “Me just being me, respect to PnB / I’ll probably never eat at Roscoe’s.” Some listeners felt the line was disrespectful, interpreting it as a diss. However, Pusha T clarified on Twitter that it was meant as a sign of respect and not intended to offend. He wrote, “And I won’t… RIP PNB 🙏.”
While most fans understood the sentiment, some critics, including Pitchfork’s Alphonse Pierre, called the line “out of pocket.” Despite this, the overall reception to the Clipse album has been largely positive, with many praising its lyricism and guest features.
The album also includes appearances from Kendrick Lamar, Nas, Ab-Liva, and Stove God Cooks. It has generated further discussion due to other provocative lyrics, such as a line referencing a lawsuit threat involving Tyler, The Creator.
As fans continue to analyze Let God Sort Em Out, Pusha T’s clarification has helped ease concerns about the PnB Rock reference. The music community continues to mourn the late rapper’s death while engaging with the new Clipse release.
