Ice-T has no idea who Trapt are as they keep trying to start beef
Yesterday, the Twitter saga with Trapt went a bit deeper with their official account taking shots at Sumerian Records and further Ice-T but today that beef goes a bit further.
Ice-T tweeted shortly after telling Trapt frontman Chris Taylor Brown off with a message about respect over popularity and Brown shot back again dragging out a hilariously nonchalant response from the multi-talented musician and actor.

Since this has started, Trapt’s social media account started going on ridiculous rants against seemingly every metalcore band in existence on top of actors and others.
After Born Of Osiris made a joking cover of their song “Headstrong,” Brown got worked up and threats were made against their entire artist roster.
A series of now-deleted tweets saw the Trapt vocalist trying to act hard telling Sumerian to “get your best bands and arm them” because “blood will be spilled.” Apparently, the vocalist thinks someone at Sumerian was threatening his life.

Through this, debates over streaming numbers were yet again brought up. This led to Brown rallying against Ice-T’s metal band Body Count. Numerous people tagged Ice-T in the posts which drew a reaction from him.
Dude.. Keep talkin. We’ll bump into each other one day. https://t.co/iA0OWA5Ahq

Brown replied back conveniently forgetting the ridiculous reasons he was threatening Sumerian artists for while trying to say Ice-T is saying he will kick his ass over the tweets.
Damn Ice T is threatening me for saying TRAPT has much higher streaming numbers… ? You can’t make this shit up! I said he was a great actor… Bodycount is a great group as well. Been around for a long time. Just don’t have the numbers trapt does. Kick my ass though for it… https://t.co/qCJHY4A4YQ

Then, Ice-T laid out a message which was clearly about the Trapt situation.
ICE Cold Fact: Never confuse Popularity with Respect.

Brown has clearly had a nerve struck by the interactions with Ice-T as he continues tweeting about him.

Bro! You are so damn sensitive about fucking FACTS! Most of the people jumping on this bandwagon you created are posers. I stated facts. I stand by them! I don’t give a fuck if you or anyone on liberal Twitter respects me… Have I not made that clear by now?! ??♂️ https://t.co/Eh7hxnuIQb

While this has been wildly interesting to see play out, Ice-T is giving a pretty blunt message today that hopefully puts a stop to Brown’s anger against the rapper. Ice-T isn’t alone in not knowing who the hell Trapt are either as has been shown throughout the past month.
Dude.. I have no Fn idea who you are… https://t.co/LoMponkVSg

Brown still can’t let things go though and continued tweeting about him and Power Trip.

Shortly after this, he also gave a heartwarming message showing how inflated his ego is by saying only successful people can talk about other successful people without much of a definition of success being provided.
I believe only successful people are allowed to talk shit about other successful people. Peons are not allowed to say shit and I’m here to tell you why. I will be the one person who matters who will give you the attention you so crave… I care about you, believe it or not
