Justin Bieber has a bone to pick with DJ Premier. Back in October, Bieber was looking to perform in the BET Hip Hop Awards Cypher, but got slapped down by Premier when Bieber was quoted as saying he wanted rapper Ludacris to write his rhymes for him. Ludacris said that wasn't true, but it doesn't matter now because Bieber just debuted his own rap skills on the Hot 97.5 radio show in Vegas.

You don't even have to listen to the clip to guess what people are saying about it. The YouTube comments are vicious, especially since the Biebs rapped over a popular Biggie beat ("Who Shot Ya.") But we have to admit, we were a little surprised he managed to do what he did. It's certainly not "impressive," but we've heard much, much worse. (Sorry, Reh Dogg.) Give it a listen and tell us what you think!

I don't care if this is his dream.
I don't care if he is "trying".
The fact is, he is terrible and falsely celebrated. Our standards of music are so low that Justin Bieber is famous. Now he's going from being terrible in one genre to being terrible in another.

I watched that video, and it was painful. Possibly even more so than his other crap.

I'm sick of seeing real talent fall in favor of this.

It was sort of sad... he should stick to attracting Tweens (11/12 year olds).

So, to paraphrase you Justin Bieber is terrible, but not worse you ever heard.? As Shakespeare once wrote "to damn with faint praise," that's what your question does to Bieber.

That disgusts me, it totally destroys the rap world, and degrades good rappers. You want good rappers? Check out T. Mills, JJ Demon, Die Antwoord, I Eat Lightning, The Lacs, Limp Bizkit, The Offspring, Eminem and Hollywood Undead.

he is such a wannabe... just my opinion though. he tries to hard to fit but all the girls just drool over his looks rather than the quality and meaning of his music.

I don't get the hate towards Justin Bieber, he's a cute kid, who sings catchy songs for teenage girls. And yes, those girls don't demand musical masterpieces, but that's the way it has been on every generation... If you don't like him (which is quite understandable if you already passed puberty), then don't listen to him, there are plenty of other artists. But don't go hating the poor kid... It speaks poorly of you if you're an adult...

What does swag mean in this context anyway? All rap sucks, so Bieber is no worse than the rest of them.

I'm honestly tired of hearing about this kid. He's not even that good and soooo many people worship the ground he walks on. Give me a break. He's a talentless kid that wants to live the "American Dream" and be famous. He really needs to go away now.

Go where? Papparazzi will just follow him around anyways. And most people are not "beliebers", just normal fans like me. But they don't bother to research everything about him and post opinions like me.

Oh, I just heard that this little sucker hates rock music. Hence, I declare permanent state of death on Justin Bieber. Dear Justin Bieber, please, die painfully.
