Tru-Life's MySpace Gets Hacked By Dipset
Fail Occurred: January 12, 2007
He being a CEO-slash-rapper, Jay-Z felt too big to respond to outright disses from the Dipset collective. So, he sent his newest Roc La Familia protegé, Tru-Life, into battle; a pawn, at best. Tru aimed high, putting out Tru York, a mixtape remembered only for the artwork: a Photoshopped Jim Jones in a Borat-style thong and Cam'ron as a Seventh Avenue transsexual hooker. Retaliation came quickly and nerdily. Tru's MySpace was plastered with a new cover, one for Jim York that featured Tru and Jay-Z where Dipset had once stood. Also, a fake message was sent out to his MySpace friends (2007!), with a fake Tru apologizing for disrespecting Dipset. The excuse? He was just "broke," "dust smoking," and bored from driving his "96 Windstar Caravan."

i'm so sick and tired of people bashing this album. there was nothing wrong with this album. was it different? Yes, but that doesn't make it bad. everyone shot common with bullets for this album being different, but if it wasn't for this album, would we get a Speakerbox?Love Below? would we get a Kid Cudi, and the countless other artist in hip hop that think and do things outside the box when it comes to hip hop
