The Clipse's ‘Ace Trumpets': The 12 Best Lines
The Clipse finally released a full-blown single from their highly anticipated album Let God Sort Em Out after releasing portions of songs over the last couple years and there are no shortage of slick lines and clever wordplay. More from Billboard Rihanna's Father, Ronald Fenty, Dies at 70: Report Ye Says He Misses Pusha T's 'Friendship' After Being Name-Dropped in New Clipse Song President Trump Says He'd 'Look at the Facts' When Considering Potential Diddy Pardon Pusha T and his brother No Malice each have one verse, with the former handling hook duties as they try to outdo each other with rhymes about drug dealing and being millionaire rap stars, which is maybe some of my favorite type of rap music if I'm being honest. And no one does crime tales quite like the Brother Thornton. We also get Push addressing his hot-and-cold relationship with Ye (formerly Kanye West) and his former collaborator's erratic behavior. Pharrell and his neighborhood friends from Virginia Beach started giving fans glimpses of the music they've been working on since 2023 when 'Chains & Whips' was played during Paris Fashion Week as the Clipse walked down the runway dipped in Louis Vuitton designed by Skateboard P. Then in 2024, a song was played about their late parents featuring John Legend on the chorus during another Louis Vuitton runway show. And more recently, Push used an unreleased song entitled 'So Far Ahead' with Pharrell on the hook for a social media video of him getting ready for the 2025 Met Gala. Their first album since 2009's Til the Casket Drops, is due out later this summer and will be entirely produced by Pharrell. Check out our list of 12 of the best lines from 'Ace Trumpets.' Who said it? Pusha T Push lives like a Grand Theft Auto character and changes exotic cars like sneakers. This is just one of those clever lines that we've come to expect from him. Who said it? No Malice I still can't believe Will Smith walked up to Chris Rock and slapped him at the Oscars live on TV. Who said it? No Malice Some nice wordplay to start of his verse off with some drug smuggling and pasta references. No Malice is officially back, ladies and gentlemen. Who said it? Pusha T Not guilty, building a family with Rihanna the billionaire mogul pop superstar, starring in a Spike Lee movie opposite Denzel — who has it better than A$AP Rocky right now? Who said it? No Malice We gotta thank the Good Lord above for No Malice deciding to resurrect one of the greatest groups of all time. We are not worthy. Who said it? No Malice This line is better than the movie. Who said it? Pusha T You just knew he had to have a line about Ye on this album and he wasted no time addressing his estranged friend, business partner, and collaborator who has ranted about feeling like Pusha should be more supportive publically of his trials and tribulations. Who said it? Pusha T I mean, come on. This is rap music. These are bars *picture of Funk Flex screaming into a microphone*. Annotation correction by Pusha himself which makes it an even crazier line as he's referencing the late John 'Ecstasy' Fletcher of the legendary hip-hop group Whodini who passed away in 2020. Who said it? No Malice He's just able to deliver witty lines in a menacing fashion. It's funny, it's insane, it's maniacal. Who said it? Pusha T Just gonna leave this here. Who said it? Pusha T Referencing the totally avoidable conflict Big Meech and his son Lil Meech find themselves entangled in with 50 Cent is a diabolical bar only someone like Push could think of. Who said it? No Malice It's going to be hard for someone to top this line this year. I'm not even gonna break this down, for fear of sounding like those nerdy rap accounts on social media. Best of Billboard Chart Rewind: In 1989, New Kids on the Block Were 'Hangin' Tough' at No. 1 Janet Jackson's Biggest Billboard Hot 100 Hits H.E.R. & Chris Brown 'Come Through' to No. 1 on Adult R&B Airplay Chart
