# Slayr and DC The Don Exchange Disses After

All it took was one Instagram story. Around July 22, DC The Don put up what looked like a session confirmation with Slayr—title or photo clearly marked “DC x Slayr.” Fan pages ran with it. A few days later the two had unfollowed each other, and by July 27 the shots were flying on X.


That Monday Daijon Cotty Davis posted the line that set everything off: “Slayr is like me if I was never athletic attractive or knew how to dress.” The dig landed because basketball is still part of his story. Six-foot-seven, Chino Hills High School, AAU with the Ball brothers, three-star recruit in 2018. His 2017 track “Everything 1K” ended up in a Big Baller Brand commercial and got Lonzo Ball’s attention. XXL Freshman in 2023, albums like Come As You Are and Funeral, still out here grinding almost ten years later without ever fully breaking into the mainstream.

Evan McDonald, who goes by Slayr, hit back the same day. He called Davis a “failed nba expirement” still stuck at the level he was at in 2017. McDonald is 19, born in Philly to Jamaican parents. He started as Slayer77 on Discord, caught early heat with “Fourth Gear Cypher,” dropped Half Blood in 2025 and BloodLuxe in 2026, signed to Columbia, and just made the 2026 XXL Freshman list. Rage and digicore, heavy Uzi and Carti influence, video-game soundtracks mixed in. At the age Davis was still dealing with label headaches, McDonald already has major-label resources behind him.


The timeline is pretty clear from the posts and the accounts that were watching it unfold. Davis put the story up. Slayr or people around him made it known no feature was locked. Some people online said it felt like the old move of floating a bigger name for attention. Unfollows happened next. Then the personal shots. Half the replies said Davis was reaching for relevance. The other half said Slayr turned a simple mix-up into content. A few pointed out how the age gap made the whole thing look uneven—a name from the 2017 wave going at a teenager who just got the Freshman cover.


As of July 28 neither side had said anything beyond the X posts, and no song ever came out. Just another underground cycle: teased collab, ego, timeline drama. Davis keeps stacking melodic and trap records while the basketball “what if” still follows him. McDonald is in the middle of a real run after the mixtape cycle and the Columbia deal. The back-and-forth didn’t make either of them look bigger. It just left the public record of two artists talking past each other instead of making the record people wanted to hear.
