Justin Bieber shared a message blasting Clipse while promoting his new album, Swag. Bieber reposted Kerwin Frost praising his new album while slamming Clipse’s similarly new drop, Let God Sort Em Out. Both albums were released this past Friday, July 11.

“Justice is served,” wrote Frost, before saying that Bieber “emptied the clip.”

“This is the only album that matters right now,” Frost added in all caps. “This album is way better than the Clipse. Clipse is for bitter grown men who collect Kaws dolls and shop at Kith and Union.”

Frost later responded to Bieber reposting his message, writing, “Birds of a feather, crash out together.”

Let God Sort Em Out features appearances from The-Dream, Stove God Cooks, Ab-Liva, John Legend, Voices of Fire, Kendrick Lamar, Tyler, The Creator, and Nas. Production on the album was handled by Pharrell.

Bieber's new album, Swag, features appearances from Gunna, Sexyy Red, Druski, and Lil B. Production on the album was handled by Bieber himself, Mk.gee, Daniel Caesar, and others.

Another person to shower Bieber's new album with praise is Scooter Braun, who posted a lengthy message calling it some of the singer's best work.

“This is, without a doubt, the most authentically Justin Bieber album to date,” wrote Braun on Instagram. “It’s beautiful, raw, and truly him. And that’s what matters.”

“I’ve had the privilege of witnessing his growth for almost two decades,” Braun continued. “Along every journey, there comes a time when an artist fully steps into their own — and that’s what he’s done here. He poured his soul into this project, and you can feel it in every single run.”

On Swag itself, Druski, who appears on its skits, commends Bieber for the songs on the album. "You got some soul on this album," Druski said on "Soulful," one of the three skits he appears on. "You kinda sound Black on this muthafucka, man."

"You played that last song, I said, 'Damn.' You got a 'lil, I'm tellin' you. You more than two percent," Druski continued. "On this album right here, I can hear the soul. Your soul is Black. Your skin white, but your soul Black, Justin. I promise you, man."

Meanwhile, the Clipse's new album has gotten its fair share of praise — such as from rap legend Rakim who commended Kendrick Lamar's guest verse on "Chains & Whips."

"I salute you KING!!!" Wrote Rakim on Instagram. "Thnx for the illest shout I heard in a loooong time, and keep up the incredible work my brother, you ain't no joke !!!! Peace and blessings to you and yours."

In Complex’s new cover story with Clipse, the two rappers discussed hip-hop's relationship with aging.

“I think hip-hop has kind of jinxed itself into thinking that there is such a thing as too old. That should never be accepted,” said Malice. “Either you got the talent or you don't. You could be old. You could be young. If you ain't got it, then you don't have it. You don't stay young forever and if you try to stay young forever, you start looking funny.”
