Big Sean Addresses Rumored Lil Yachty Diss On “Wire Me”

Big Sean is still riding the high from his freshly released Better Me Than You album, and he’s swiftly shutting down any negativity surrounding the momentous occasion. On the Pressure Edition bonus track “Wire Me,” the Detroit spitter laid some bars that had fans speculating whether or not the words were aimed at Lil Yachty. However, it turns out it was just a “whole double entendre.”

“I mean, I might have to even throw ’em a lil’ boat,” Sean raps over production by Hit-Boy. “I’m seein’ n**gas gettin’ drowned out ’cause they can’t switch up the flow/ Just give ’em a year or two, and they gettin’ exposed.”

During an interview with Complex, he clarified that he wasn’t referring to the Atlanta rapper at all. “I wasn’t talking about [Lil Yachty],” the Dark Sky Paradise rapper explained. He then pointed out that a diss directed towards Yachty wouldn’t make sense because the two collaborated on the project that the song is on. “Yachty is on the album as well. On ‘Yes,’ he’s doing adlibs with me… No, I’m not taking a jab at Yachty. It was like a whole double entendre. That would have been a whole other entendre.”

The father of two continued, “He was in the studio with me while I was making the album. He actually has a verse on [“Yes”], too. I might throw it on there later.”

Better Me Than You made landfall last Friday (Aug. 30) and boasts a roster of impressive features from names like Charlie Wilson, Gunna, Eryn Allen Kane, Syd, Thundercat, Bryson Tiller, Kodak black, Teyana Taylor, Larry June, Cash Cobain, DJ Premier, and more across 21 total tracks.

Fans have gotten to enjoy a string of quality accompanying visuals from the LP as well for tracks like “On Up” and “Who You Are (Superstar).” The former is dedicated to his son, Noah, and shot from the baby’s perspective, while the latter samples Usher’s “Superstar” and features cameos from Taye Diggs, RDC World, and more.
