In late 2003, Clipse began recording material for their second album, Hell Hath No Fury. However, further work on the album ground to a halt in 2004, when Arista Records’s urban artists were absorbed into its sister label Jive Records as part of a larger merger between Sony Music Entertainment and BMG. Due to contractual requirements, Clipse was forced to stay on Jive, while Star Trak and the rest of its roster moved to their new home at Interscope Records. While Clipse resumed work on the album, and eventually finished recording it, the duo became increasingly frustrated with Jive, as the label was notorious for overlooking hip-hop artists such as Clipse, UGK and Keith Murray in favor of the more pop-oriented acts on its roster, which caused numerous delays in the release of Hell Hath No Fury. As delays continued, the group asked for a formal release from its contract. When Jive refused to grant this request, the duo sued the label. In response to this, in 2004, the brothers launched their own record label imprint, Re-Up Records, and formed the hip hop group Re-Up Gang, along with fellow rappers Ab-Liva and Sandman.
On May 9, 2006, Clipse finally reached an agreement with Jive to release the album through both Re-Up and Jive. Hell Hath No Fury was finally released on November 28, 2006. Once again produced by The Neptunes, it debuted at #14 on the Billboard 200 with over 80,000 copies sold in the 1st week. While the album received a great deal of critical acclaim, its sales were less successful than Lord Willin’. It spawned two moderately successful singles: “Mr. Me Too” with Pharrell Williams and “Wamp Wamp (What It Do)” with Slim Thug. Clipse’s frustrations with Jive were a constant theme of the album, with Pusha T saying “I’m sorry to the fans, but them crackers weren’t playing fair at Jive” on the track Mr. Me Too. The hip hop magazine XXL gave the album a “XXL” rating, marking it as a five-star album. At the time only five albums had previously received that honor. In a May 19, 2007 interview with Eye Weekly, Clipse revealed that they had been officially released from any contractual obligations with Jive. After this, the duo began discussions with several record labels, eventually signing with Columbia Records on October 26, 2007. The follow-up to Hell Hath No Fury, titled Til the Casket Drops, was released on December 8, 2009 via Columbia Records. In a departure from the group’s previous works, which only featured production from the Neptunes, the album features production from Sean “Diddy” Combs’ production team The Hitmen, and DJ Khalil among others. The album did not fare as well commercially as the group’s first two albums, peaking at only #41 on the Billboard 200.

The tension between Pusha T and rapper Lil Wayne had been going on for years, beginning soon after Clipse and Birdman worked on “What Happened to That Boy”, the latter’s 2002 single. In 2006, Wayne felt the Clipse song “Mr. Me Too” was directed at him, and in 2012 Pusha T’s “Exodus 23:1” song caused Lil Wayne to vent on Twitter, later releasing a diss track titled “Goulish”, in which he says “Fuck Pusha T and anybody that love him / His head up his ass, I’mma have to head-butt him”. Pusha T has called Wayne’s diss track “horrible” and said he felt it did not deserve a response. Both men have downplayed the feud, with Wayne saying he is over it. However, in September, Pusha T appeared on the remix of Chief Keef’s I Don’t Like, where he accused Wayne of using ghostwriters saying, “My pen’s better, you don’t write, trendsetter, you clone-like”, he has since confirmed that the line was a Wayne diss. In late November, Pusha T once again dissed Wayne and Birdman on a Ludacris song titled “Mad Fo” from his #IDGAF mixtape. Pusha T later revealed his motivation for the verse: “Oh because it’s a Swizz beat. You got to blame Swizz. See, when Wayne got a Swizz beat… with the “Ghoulish” track; he got busy, well he tried to.”
After Pusha T released “My God”, the first single from his solo mixtape, his former GOOD Music label-mate Consequence took to Twitter and claimed Pusha T stole his flow and lyrics from a song of his that Pusha T was supposed to appear on, titled “The Last Supper”. On July 22, 2011, Consequence released a song titled “The Plagiarist Society” where he takes shots and questions Pusha T’s coke-dealing raps. Towards the end of the record, the Queens native promises to take aim at Kanye West next saying “You’re nothing but a body shield, for that coward from the mid-west/ so yes you can bet, that your boss is next”. Pusha T responded to the diss track when he appeared on Chicago’s 107.5 WGCI’s The Morning Riot and said nobody is looking for Consequence, as for if he would respond on a record, Pusha T went on to say “At the end of the day I am an artist and this whole rap thing is fun to me, so I can’t say you won’t hear nothing, but to go back and forth with him, it’s not right, I won’t get anything out of it.” Later that day, Consequence called into Chicago’s WGCI’s The Morning Riot in retaliation to the remarks Pusha T made about him. He also premiered a song titled “Everybody Told Me 2 (Straighten It Out)” where he disses West, Pusha T and GOOD Music in general. Since then Pusha T has responded to Consequence on a record. The song was the remix to Ace Hood’s “Go ‘N’ Get It” which also featured Beanie Sigel, Busta Rhymes and Styles P. In the song Pusha raps “Consequence, nigga, talk is cheap You don’t want a problem? Off the beef Before I off his ass with his awful teeth”. On August 19, Consequence released Movies on Demand 3 and continued to diss his former label and Pusha T on songs such as “Career Killer” and “Mr.RapFix (Hot Water)”. On September 15, 2011 Consequence appeared on MTV’s Rap Fix and announced his feud with Kanye West and GOOD Music was over. While out in Chicago in October 2011, Pusha T appeared on WGCI radio for a second time, and confirmed that the “beef” was indeed over, that it had died out and they have moved on. In January 2015, the two officially ended the feud when Consequence took to his Instagram page to let the people know: “All G.O.O.D. in 2015, Pusha [T] and I deaded everything and we creatively vibed with Kanye for this new LP.”
