Rap Beefs
'N'vyus'
In August of 2005, Webbie, along with his Trill Entertainment coherts released a confrontational track, attacking West Coast rap artist N'vyus (who currently resides in Baton Rouge) for beefing with various local artists and subsequently backing away from them. There are three tracks released online which are set to be released on the Trill Entertainment Presents How The Dirty Wuz Won mixtape that aim directly at N'vyus, citing incidents at a concert in New Orleans, confrontational comments made on songs and N'vyus' alleged beefs with other locals.
As of July 30, 2005, N'vyus has not responded or commented on this firery conflict.
'B-Loc'
Apparently, Baton Rouge rapper B-Loc was caught distributing bootleg copies of Trill Entertainment mixtapes and was confronted about the situation in 2003, which then resulted in the rapper suffering multiple gunshot wounds at the record store he owned. The rapper has since released various diss tracks and Trill Entertainment has also traded words with him.
