Rap legend Pusha T has come a long way from his days dealing in the streets — seemingly replacing kilos of cocaine with quarter-pound burgers.
After revealing his infamous creation of McDonalds’ “I’m Lovin’ It” slogan back in 2016, King Push is back to flip the script, dissing the Filet-o-Fish in favor of Arby’s Crispy Fish Sandwich.
Push has vocalized his disappointment with McDonald’s for their egregious underpayment of his services in coming up with their iconic tag line, with his collaborator on the project, Justin Timberlake, getting paid $6 million in comparison to his $500k.
Considering this misstep a lesson learned, Pusha T went on to acquire 40% of Arby’s Mix N’ Match commercials for the use of “Burial,” his collaboration with UK EDM artist Yogi. Fast-forward to the present day, where Push doubles down on his Arby’s support by championing their Crispy Fish sandwich on “Spicy Fish Diss Track.”
“I’m the reason the whole world love it, now I gotta crush it
Filet-O-Fish is *** and you should be disgusted
How dare you sell a square fish askin’ us to trust it
A half slice of cheese, Mickey D’s on a budget?”
Pusha T — “Spicy Fish Diss Track”
King Push doesn’t mince his words as he spits direct disses at Mickey D’s, referencing his creation of their slogan and disparaging Ronald McDonald himself as he praises their competition.
Between collaborations with Ye, Nigo, Babyface Ray and more, Pusha T is preparing himself for his follow-up to 2018’s DAYTONA. Now with a major brand deal under his belt, there is no telling what surprises he has in store for us.
