Netizens Still Speculate If M.I.B's SIMS Joined The Diss Battle Against iKON's Bobby

On December 12, 2014, a potentially new shot was stealthly fired from SIMS of Jungle Entertainment hip-hop quartet Most Incredible Buster (M.I.B) in the quickly growing "diss battle" allegedly started by iKON's Bobby. Sims appears to have joined the battle with his recent track, "You." Despite no one being specifically named in the track, netizens continue to speculate that it was directed towards Bobby.

Although still in pre-debut stage, Kim Jiwon (Bobby) has continued to publicy express his doubts about the credence of idol rappers, such as Rap Monster of BTS, Ravi of VIXX and the boy band Boyfriend. Prior to SIMS joining the battle, Ravi was the only rapper to directly respond to Bobby's previously questionable tracks. 

What makes SIMS' entry as the third contender (various discussion boards show that netizens are still anticipating a response from Rap Monster) unique is that he was not a direct target of Bobby's. SIMS does not appear to have been mentioned in any previous lyrics. A potential reference, however, could have been made towards his band mate, Kangnam, when Bobby mentioned Trot X during Show Me The Money 3.

Thus far, SIMS still has not clarified his direct target, yet some of the wordplay used in "You" appears to be a straight jab at Bobby. Shortly after the release of his track, SIMS tweeted, "I empathized with what Bobby said, so I borrowed and used his expressions." More than a week since its release, netizens are still split down the middle about where they stand with SIMS' track. Read the translated lyrics below and check out the video after the jump. Does this seem to have some connection to Bobby's pre-debut tirade or is it emphathy? 

Shut up to all the tone deaf rappers on stage,
My looks aren't everything, I ain't growing my sides,
You can't escape this track, the speed is as fast as a bobsleigh (*Pun meaning "slaying bobby"),
I'm the piglet sucking the honey next to Pooh . (*Pun or maybe a hit at Bobby owning a Pooh plushy toy)

You can't even ride on the beat, where did you copy it? (*referencing Bobby's lyrics "I ride the beat like a fool")
You can't even spit your words in this battle rap, (*speculated to be referencing Bobby's slurring)
You'll only listen to what is good to hear? Don't discriminate,
I'm gonna rap at once and we'll see who's mocking.

I don't recognize your face, nor the name of your song, I don't care,
When you released your song, it was so-so,
And I can't change my memory,
I'm clearing my throat in embarrassment from your awkward gestures.

I was on 'Trot X' rapping (*Bobby said something to Vasco about this on 'Show Me The Money')
I'm the only one at the center of my league,
Sometimes you pretend to be something else with that hypocrisy,
But from the roots, I'm different than you.

I've been talking about a story,
I'm just allergic to those bastard idols who are dissing, (*maybe directed towards Bobby?)
There are a lot of kids who can't do it, they can't climb over me,
But what I hate even more are the ones who give up in the middle.
