The saucy rap battle between Wendy’s and Wingstop all started with a simple tweet of Wingstop in a strip mall, but ended as a full-on showdown a la “Rap City.”

A Twitter user posted a photo of Wingstop and Gamestop on Twitter, noting that seeing the two businesses together was reminiscent of Migos’ banger “Bad and Boujee.” (The lyrics are actually “raindrops, droptop”.)

Wingstop jumped on the viral post with its own play on the breakout hip-hop hit.

Gamestop, Wingstop.
Copped a new game for the ❌

📦

Saucin' and tossin' our wings in a pot, pot.

We got that Original Hot, Hot.

Twitter being Twitter egged on the keepers of Wendy’s Twitter account to match up to Wingstop’s “bars.” Wendy’s has had its share of social media face-offs, including one with Carls Jr.

Wendy’s answered the call.

Then, Wingstop came back with a vengeance.

Be there. Done that.

Bring something fresh... not frozen.

Wendy’s proved its Twitter battle stamina with this witty little ditty.

Fresh, never frozen since 69
Trying to cop that mixtape, better get in line
Grabbed a couple wings now you're trying to fly
But nothing gets 'em dipping like a Frosty and fry

😘

— Wendy's (@Wendys)

Wingstop continued to hold its own, even throwing in the ultimate urban dismissal “girl, bye.”

A frosty and a fry?
Giiiirl bye.

Wingstop flavor bringin' all the cravers!
They eat us now and save you for later. ✌

The shenanigans eventually ended with a lighthearted truce for the chicken and burger chains, with Wendy’s taking a bow first.

But for real, this was fun. Thanks Wing Ding

Couldn't say it any better. We'll have to do it again.

💯— Wingstop 🍗 (@wingstop)

Days later, Twitter’s still ablaze with commentary on which fast food floacist won the battle.

Is everyone seeing this rap battle
