Earlier today Rick Ross released his single “The Devil Is A Lie,” a song that most people, when they listened to it, believed to be produced by K.E. On The Track. That’s what many major news outlets, including Complex, and social networks were abuzz with the information as well.

This situation was made even more awkward by the fact that K.E. had made a video of himself producing the beat. And he responded to Major’s accusation with taunting:

Walker later deleted a tweet that suggested that the matter was resolved and earlier today (December 20th) intimated that the problem may take time to resolve:
sometimes its just hard to keep silent on issues even when you know that in the LONG RUN, the truth will be LOUD and CLEAR #Patience
