Upon the release of Meek Mill‘s album ‘Championships,’ one of the hottest talking points was Jay-Z‘s verse on the song ‘What’s Free.’

On the track, which also features Rick Ross, Jigga seemingly takes lyrical aim at Kanye West. For he rapped:

“No red hat, don’t Michael and Prince me and Ye.
They separate you when you got Michael and Prince’s DNA.
I ain’t one of these house ni***s you bought.
My house like a resort, my house bigger than yours.
My spou—c’mon, man—my route better, of course.”

Naturally, this saw the media mill crank into overdrive – with many deeming it a diss targeted at Ye. But Jay is saying that’s not the case.
