For the last few days, we’ve received lots of links from our friends to a post on the hilarious “Big Ghost Nahmean” blog where the writer, in character as Ghostface Killah, went in on the new crop of rappers, labeling them as soft.
In an interview on The Star & Bucwild Morning Show on one of our affiliates, 100.3 The Beat in Philly, Star read a quote from the blog that had some not-so-nice things to say about Wiz Khalifa.

Wiz, who was in the studio at the time, wasn’t aware that the post wasn’t really made by Ghostface and then labelled the veteran Wu-Tang MC as “corny.”
(Side note: Ghostface could diss our moms and even then we wouldn’t be able to call him corny… Out of line, perhaps, but not corny.)
Listen to the interview below:
The real Ghostface responded to the interview via Twitter:
