Ambush Holds Round 3 Hostage with a 2,000-Comment Ransom
By [Your Name], UK Rap Correspondent January 7, 2026
Just when the scene began to relax, thinking the New Year’s war between Ambush and Chip had entered a strategic ceasefire, the "Jumpy" star has lauched a fresh grenade.
Last night, Ambush teased Instagram with a post that sent shockwaves through the UK ig community. The caption? "Its Over Buddy." But this isn't just a teaser. Ambush has demanded 2,000 comments before he "presses the button" on what fans are already calling Round 3.
The War So Far: A Recap of the Carnage
For those who missed the squabble over the festive period, here is the scorecard:
-
The Catalyst: Ambush’s "Plugged In" set fire to Chip’s "heritage" status.
-
The Counter: Chip’s "Plugged OUT" weaponized a private voice note of Ambush showing him respect, painting a picture of betrayal.
-
The Escalation: Ambush went for the jugular with "Mid Boss," making the beef deeply personal by targeting Chip’s private life.
-
The "Pest Control": Chip’s lightning fast response. A 24-hour turnaround was a masterclass in lyrical precision, seemingly ending the debate for many.
"Its Over Buddy": The Final Nail?
The industry is currently divided on what "Its Over Buddy" actually contains. Some insiders suggest Ambush is sitting on a "career-ending" receipt, while others believe this is the lead single for his heavily rumored 2026 project.
By setting a comment goal, Ambush is forcing the hand of the public. He isn't just fighting Chip; he’s mobilizing an army. At the time of writing, the comment section is a frenzy of "🚀" emojis and "Drop it now" demands, nearing the 2,000 mark at a record pace.
Why the Stakes are Higher in 2026
Chip has historically thrived on being the "clean-up man," the one who has the last, most devastating word. However, by demanding engagement and creating a digital event, Ambush is attempting to hijack the momentum. If the track lives up to the "Its Over Buddy" title, we could be looking at a shift in the hierarchy of North London rap.
