Tray Pizzy aims at Dave East on "Retribution."

Tray Pizzy and Dave East used to be on good terms once upon a time. The Harlem rapper even tapped Pizzy to collaborate on the track, "All I Know" from the project, Hate Me Now. However, things have apparently soured between their relationship. Now, Pizzy comes through with some harsh words for East on his latest track, "Retribution."

Tray Pizzy fires shots at Dave East on his latest track, "Retribution." On the track, Pizzy takes aim at Dave East street connections and questions whether the Paranoia rapper is actually from Harlem. "I could tell you ain't from Harlem, they don't drip like that/ I know some real Harlem n*ggas, they don't Crip like that." Pizzy explains on the song that he feels that East has been firing subliminal shots at him on tracks which triggered this response.

Quotable Lyrics
Killed you on your last shit, I guess that did it
Wayno said I was his favorite and messed that with it
All these feelings of competition, couldn't hide 'em no more
I'm from the Bronx where n*ggas can't even hide in the store
