Yelawolf released new video for the single

It took Clever almost two years to come back at Yelawolf, but he did not hold back in his response. The only thing, it was an interview, not a track.

In 2019, Yelawolf fired a series of freestyles, but “Bloody Sunday Freestyle” was arguably the most discussed. Michael sent shots to many white rappers in the industry to assert his superiority, and it became a talking point for weeks. Some of them responded very quickly, as, for instance, Post Malone, who, as Yelawolf predicted in his diss, did not rap back but tried to laugh the diss off with a tweet and called Catfish Billy a nerd.

While G-Eazy, Post Malone, and MGK were the main targets of “Bloody Sunday”, the rapper from Alabama Clever, who released a joint with Juice WRLD “Ring Ring” in 2019, got a brief mention on the track as well, mainly because his name sounds the same as the name of Yelawolf’s DJ Klever:

There’s only one Klever
As for the other white boy from Gadsden, psh, whatever
You’re welcome, now take that petty diss and run with it.

Clever did not run with it back then, but he apparently has been holding back since, collecting the wits. Now, in his interview with Genius quoted by , he finally takes it off his chest:

We’re from the same city. Can I cuss on here? Let me say fuck Yelawolf first off. So I get a phone call from two different people that I’m close to that were also kind of close to him at the time and was basically saying, “He’s talking shit about you. I asked him about you. He said he was tired of hearing your name, and blah, blah, blah”. This was a long time ago.

He would get drunk, call me on the phone, and talk his little shit. But I’m a battle rapper, and lyrically, I feel like I could eat alphabet soup and sh-t better lyrics than Yelawolf. So I feel like to out-rap him on a song would be like slapping your sister and feeling like a tough guy. I just don’t see no point in it. I think that you can throw rocks at the moon, but they don’t reach. I’m a little above him at this point. He’s a little irrelevant and I’m not going to do anything to try to bring him back to the light.

It was all white rappers. I think for a white rapper to come out and make a battle record about all the white rappers in the game, it’s just so very corny. Get a life, dude. But I don’t want to give him any more shine than that, but it is what it is.

Not like Clever is in a position to share any shine with the successful Slumerican artist, but it is also telling that he has never found in him to respond to a shot on wax, despite all his bravado.
