Limp Bizkit‘s decision to enlist rapper $not as one of the openers for their forthcoming spring headlining tour doesn’t sit well with a member of the nü-metal band Snot. Given the past friendship between Snot and Limp Bizkit (Fred Durst even appeared on the “Strait Up” tribute album to Snot‘s late vocalist Lynn Strait,) Snot guitarist Mikey Doling took the time to vent on the situation.
In a since-deleted video shared via Facebook, Doling offered:
“Mikey Doling here from the real Snot. I’m making this video because there is a young rapper kid out there calling himself $not. I heard about him about a year and a half ago. [I] didn’t think nothing of it because he was in the hip-hop world, rapper — different worlds altogether. Well, now he has stepped into our lane, and I need to address it.
Limp Bizkit just posted [dates for] a new tour, and they are taking this rapper kid named $not on tour with them. And I wanted to say to Fred Durst, if you see this video, how dare you, man? You were friends with Snot. Snot loved you, man. You came onstage with us and performed. Lynn went on stage with you in Boston. And you know the incident I’m talking about. We were friends. We shared drinks, stage, music [and] all that, and all these years later you take an artist named $$not on tour with you? What the fuck is that, man? Bullshit.
So, yeah. I had to address it. That’s my two cents. And to that fake $not kid — [extends middle finger] right there, brother. There’s only one fucking Snot. Get some.”
