Way Back Wednesday- Diatribe

Diatribe- an abusive and critical speech or piece of writing

Ex: It would be kind of sick to have a rap group named Die a Tribe and each track we drop is in the form of a diatribe about an infinitely more talented and well-respected rapper. We would keep pushing the limits until one of these rappers would reach their breaking point and send out their goons to kill us, hence the “die” in Die a Tribe.

*Lyrics pulled from Die a Tribe’s Jay-Z diatribe diss-track*

“Yo Jay-Z, your flow is la-zy. In the humble opinion of Die a Tribe, we think you got no vibe. You said you grew up in the streets, well Die a Tribe wants to see the receipts. Die a Tribe, we’re a bunch of suburban white guys, and we’re crazy in a different way, wanna know just how, Jay? We go skiing in the winter and we sometimes attempt the medium-sized jumps, and you’re the one claiming to be a punk?” *Next part rapped with Eminem’s quick flow* “You might’ve sold crack, but you’ve never changed the plan on your dad’s Aflac to put an unnecessary premium on your dad’s hatchback so when you take it for a spin round the cul-de-sac to impress the token black that wanted to see if you really lived what was in your spoken raps you could do donuts with that baby until the exhaust was smoking black and when your dad ended up noticing a paint coating crack you could blame it on the gardener with the soaking back to avoid catching flack while also guaranteeing that the coverage ensured your dad got his money back thanks to the duck that quacks and he was able to spend the savings on some auto wax so it all came full circle like a guy doing a 360 while ejaculating on a pile of all of Jay-Z’s subpar tracks”
