Bob Dylan was going through his really Christian phase and wrote "Gotta Serve Somebody" and then John Lennon responded by writing "Serve Yourself."

I'll probably think of more later.

Well, how's about a bit of old-school feuding with some classic tracks from the Bronx vs Queens Bridge Wars.

Some of my favourite hip-hop diss tracks:

Link

Jay-Z towards Nas.

"That's a one hot album every ten year average."

Link

DJ Quik towards MC Eiht.

"E-I-H-T, now should I continue, you left out the G 'cause the G ain't in you."

Link

Lil B towards Joe Budden.

"I bet you still jack off with your butt cheeks out, listening to mood music."

Trim just taking shots at tons of other grime MC's.

One of the greatest opening grime lines of all-time:

"I can't hate 'Pow', that was a hit, even if the main verse was nicked off God's Gift, it's been a couple years now and Sniper's still chatting shit, and whoever shanked Fumin in 2006 needs to come to Eskimo Dance so I can buy him a drink."

This feud rumbled on for a while, here are my favourite moments from each side:

Link

"Hinting and shit, d'you know what fam? I'll cut you a deal: I'll stop thinking I'm sick when you stop shouting, thinking you're Titch, bare anarchy I will bring to your bits, don't let the little badboy act fool you, if he could he would sing at the BRITs, you went from 'Ghetto Gospel' to "sing-badda-badda-badda-badda", and you think that's sick? If I was the engineer I would've unplugged your headphones, knocked off the G5 and the mixer and said, "I ain't recording this shit, d'you know what? Come out the booth you div, nah, keep the money for the session", I told them man I'll bun him in a second."

And Ghetts' reply:

Thank you for this thread. It's reminded me of so many great grime beefs. I will come back with more later.

Oh yeah? Well...

This thread is for examples of the best songs that were parts of ongoing musical feuds. For example, Lynyrd Skynyrd wrote "Sweet Home Alabama" in part to respond to Neil Young's Dixie put-downs "Southern Man" and "Alabama." (The joke was wasted on Young, who later said that, when he heard his name in the Skynyrd song, he thought it was "pretty great")

My own favorite comes from the skirmish between the Sex Pistols and the New York Dolls. The Pistols' manager, Malcom MacLaren, had visited New York in the early 70s and seen the Dolls. When he got back to England, he wouldn't shut up about how great they were and tried to foist some of their ideas on the Pistols when their paths finally crossed. Johnny Rotten & Co. were having none of it and responded with the song "New York," which taunts the then-defunct Dolls with lyrics like "You poor little faggot," while Steve Jones does a pretty convincing imitation of Johnny Thunders' sneering guitar. By then, Thunders had formed his own band, the Heartbreakers (no connection to Tom Petty) and replied with "London Boys." He fires right back at Rotten by both imitating his voice and singing stuff like "You need your manager to take a piss/He holds your hand and he shakes your dick." And he does a pretty mean Steve Jones, too. The edge goes to Thunders, as well as the last word.

Others?
