Troy Ave testified against Taxstone in court and has now dropped a track aimed at the incarcerated podcaster.
“Opposition I ruin them/There’s two sides, you gotta be safe in choosing them/Ain’t have a safety on since then be smart, though/ When n-ggas dumping, Troy Ave ain’t scared of nothing/ He backed the gun, somehow I sent him running/ I got a lawsuit coming/ You took a life but look at the life this generation is bumming/ I wouldn’t wanna live like that/ Back to Live Nation and my $32 million, no tax,” he raps on “Black Church.”
In court last week, Troy Ave spoke about the night of the fatal shooting.
“If it’s fight or flight, I’m always going to fight because at that point you could die,” he testified. “I’d rather die fighting. People die from leg shots. I’d rather die fighting than laying on the ground.”
He continued: “When the shot goes off I see the light from the spark and I hear the shot. This is all happening fast. I get up and start fighting Taxstone, trying to take him, grab the gun, and another shot goes off. I put my leg up to kind of block the shot from hitting me in the face or chest.”
