Troy Ave‘s response to Uncle Murda‘s “Rap Up 2023” has remained safely in the vault since he recorded it, and it will likely stay there.
That’s according to DJ Self of Power 105, who revealed on Friday (January 5) that the Brownsville native won’t drop the track because he respects the G-Unit affiliate too much.

“Troy Ave has expressed to me that he has a response to the response of Uncle Murda’s response, do that make sense?” he said. “Out of love and respect for Uncle Murda, he has decided not to drop the song. He said he recorded something because he’s an artist, and artists, you know, they pen [their] words down.”
DJ Self then claimed that he caught the end of the recording of Troy Ave’s response, which he played for his listeners. Check it out below.
It was first speculated that Troy Ave had a bullet in the chamber for Uncle Murda on Monday (January 1), when the Brooklyn native posted to Instagram a photo of himself looking at his phone, implying that he’d been watching the “Get The Strap” rapper’s annual recap.
“Damn do I gotta “WRAP this n-gga UP”,” he wrote in the caption, suggesting that a diss track aimed at Uncle Murda may be on the way.

Uncle Murda addressed the ongoing drama between Troy Ave and Taxstone in the 2023 version of his annual year-end “Rap Up” song.
“Troy Ave really went to court and got on the stand/ N-gga snitched on Taxstone ’cause he bodied his man/ You supposed to keep it in the streets, I hate when n-ggas tell on n-ggas/ I don’t fuck with Taxstone but I don’t be wishing jail on n-ggas/ Troy Ave lost his chain on that night all that shit happened/ But it was fake, seven years later found out Maino had it,” he said.
The 50 Cent affiliate also has mixed feelings about one of 2023’s biggest breakout stars — and HipHopDX‘s Rookie of the Year — Sexyy Red.
“Sexyy Red made a sex tape and I saw it, I think she got pregnant while she was getting recorded/ And I heard she said she got chlamydia twice, that bitch ratchet, let me try to give that girl some advice,” he spits.

Uncle Murda tackles other hot-button topics like Remy Ma allegedly cheating on Papoose, Keke Palmer’s claims of abuse against her ex Darius Jackson and Jamie Foxx’s “medical complication,” which the rapper suggests was a result of “bad coke.”
Boosie Badazz and T.I.’s turbulent relationship, Lizzo’s sexual harassment lawsuit and Blueface’s claims that he slept with Soulja Boy’s baby mother and that Offset cheated on Cardi B with Chrisean Rock are also chewed over.
