Waka Flocka diss record ‘Was My Dawg’.
Gucci Mane being an accomplished rapper out Atlanta, creating many avenues for other artist to shine. One of those artist being Waka Flocka and some would think why would show hate towards someone who is responsible for your career and gave you the oppurtunity on how to elaborate on your success. On the diss track Waka quotes Gucci Mane being somewhat selfish.
“Always talking Brick Squad always talking fam first, when your a** got locked up you turned on a fam first, always taking all the credit never put in no work, use my name for leverage before they front you they gone call first,” Flocka said in the first verse. “You all for yourself shawty you a ball hog.”
Gucci Mane has mentioned in his Breakfast Club interview that he has not spoken to Flocka since he’s been out of prison and says for those who have gone so long without speaking to him means that their is no reason for them to speak anyways.
Waka Flocka’s timing of the diss record wasn;t bad considering that he dropped it while he on feet and a better man while rather than him throwing shots at him while being incarcerated and down. Many may look at Gucci and say how can you take this slander from someone who is under you. In fact this is his second diss track shot at Gucci Mane.

There’s no specific reason on why Gucci on Flocka are bumping heads however it’s something that may raise your eyebrow.
