NBA YoungBoy Fires Back at NLE The Great With ‘Zero IQ’ Diss

The track delivers a pointed reply to NLE The Great’s October diss with a more general retort.

Overview

  • The “Zero IQ” or “Zero IQ Freestyle” release arrived on YouTube with a new video on Nov. 15, according to music outlets.
  • AllHipHop reports that the lyrics question NLE’s intelligence and credibility and include violent threats and braggadocio.
  • HotNewHipHop characterizes the cut as addressing the dispute yet functioning as a broader clap-back rather than an all-out direct answer.
  • NLE’s Oct. 30 diss “KO” accused YoungBoy of “poisoning the youth” and borrowed the Dennis Edwards sample popularized in 2Pac’s “Hit ’Em Up.”
  • NLE promoted “KO” with billboards in YoungBoy’s hometown of Baton Rouge and has teased additional material, extending the feud’s visibility.
