Kreayshawn—the self-directing, self-editing, mega-inhaling personality from Oakland—signed to Columbia this week. If you haven’t seen “Gucci Gucci” yet, you might not know what this means. Check it out below, and then try to get it out of your head.
Kreayshawn came up in the hyphy craze, keeps good ties with Lil’ B from the Pack, and tweets with Mistah F.A.B. Though she’s in L.A. these days, hanging out with Odd Future and Soulja Boy, she still reps Oakland pretty hard wherever she goes.
It’s easy to be conflicted on Kreayshawn. Let’s face it, it’s been a while since there’s been a rising star out of the Bay Area, let alone Oakland. (Keyshia Cole’s got love for the city but moved the hell out, and when I asked her once in an interview what East Bay spots she like to hit up on tour, she couldn’t name any.) So it’s exciting to have some Bay Area action going on.
But . . . is “Gucci Gucci” really the face of Oaktown?
Behold, two girls fighting over who’s more hood!
“This chick @KREAYSHAWN is a rapper…yes. But hood? NO. She knows nothing about the streets she’s not half as hard as she comes off as,” tweets Harmony Gabriel, from Hustler and HBO’s Cathouse. “Makes me sick..maybe if she was some type of hustler or came from the streets or had some type of ambition but she’s trash to me. White chick acting hard throwing up gang signs from home made gangs…. #FAIL.”
Lest one doubt Harmony’s inherent hoodness, the credentials come forth:
“I got people in REAL hoods that can vouch for me I’m not hood now cause I GREW up I get big girl $ now but believe me I come from ‘hood.'”
This triggers Kreayshawn’s response:
“shut up with yor rants I’m from east Oakland u skanky.”
Harmony, again:
“Who’s hotter? Who’s the realest? @KREAYSHAWN or @HARMONYG? #ImJustSaying”
At this point, if you’re thinking it’s time for Kreayshawn to take the high road, you’re right.
“your a trip chicka I’m from east Oakland you can come visit my hood and tell me what you think… much luv anyways.”
None of this sits too well with Harmony Gabriel, unfortunately.
“@KREAYSHAWN Yea that’s all you got? Cause your mom happen to have you in east side oakland your hood!? Hahahaa!! Ask about me!! Buy my mags!”
Sensing unneeded drama, Kreayshawn then advises that she will “only reply to positive things from here on out,” and Harmony Gabriel, after reminding people “I sold pussy” and telling them to wait for her upcoming rap video, declares herself the victor: “the title is mine the crown is mine.”
And that, dear readers, is the hood battle of the day.

Hahahaha! Just because you sell your pussy and get pimped on in the ghetto by some black dudes doesnt make you hood. Kreayshan been out there flippin g’s and turnedd a hobby into a 1.4 million dollars record deal and she directs big budget videos lmao who is this hooker to even question her…….. i bet harmony’s pussy can swallow kreayshawn cuz she got a gaping hole and still not even 1/12 of the doe kreayshaw.. sweet kreay is so young and talented and puree…. gtfoh
Yo if you heard Harmony … she really is better lyrically and she doesn’t use the “N” word as publicity
I dig the hard work Kreayshawn does but in my opinion she isn’t the illest lyricist if you compare the two …
And that’s just being honest … I don’t think there is anything wrong with Harmony saying she is better … that’s how she feels and it’s fair to say that Kreayshawn isn’t making it a “non-comparable” situation
In reality Kreashawn has a deal … A Penthouse model shouldn’t have bars on her
Harmony is from the nicest part of vegas its a high class area called summerlin she’s not from no hood by far i knew the dumb white bitch since she was little… she think cause she on HBO’s cat house show she’s a super star jus anotha dumb bitch tryin get some atttention…
haha yeah Ms. Harmony is not from the “hood” what so ever lol funny that she would even say that when she knows so many people know where she really came from. One of the nicest parts of Las Vegas, Summerlin. What a joke.
