AS the prime minister and the last-but-one prime minister trade barbs in public, concerns are growing that the spat could escalate into diss tracks.
After open warfare broke out over Johnson’s honours list, rumours that he is heading into a recording studio to spit fire bars about his rival and ether him like Nas did Jay-Z continue to circulate.
A Downing Street source said: “Sunak’s been spotted jotting lyrics on the bus to work like Eminem. Johnson’s said to be workshopping some raw shit on the underground circuit.
“We’re one TikTok drop away from the bloodiest beef since NYC’s Roxanne Wars. Boris has laid it down cold over samples of military marches from his shellac-crate-digging MC, Rees-Mogg.
“He’s the bomb on the mic, mixing Latin rhymes with Peppa Pig similes, and what a freestyler. He’s basically freestyled his whole career.
“And while Sunak has an inherent advantage coming from the Soton hood, his previous rhyme was Eat Out to Help Out. His stuff’s shit. It’ll sound like a G-Unit track written by ChatGPT.
“This could prove fatal. Not for them, for hip-hop.”
Sunak said: “The diss in diss track stands for disrespect.”
