iDubbbz vs RiceGum: Content Cop, Diss Tracks and the Failed Boxing Match

The feud began publicly in September 2016 when RiceGum invited iDubbbz to make a Content Cop episode about him and said he would answer with a diss track. More than a year later, on October 3, 2017, iDubbbz released a Content Cop deceptively titled Content Cop - Jake Paul that was actually a lengthy critique of RiceGum. The episode attacked RiceGum's online persona and revisited past clips involving sexual comments, a rape joke, giveaways, wealth-flexing and other controversies. iDubbbz simultaneously released the diss track Asian Jake Paul with Boyinaband. RiceGum answered with an immediate reaction, a 22-minute rebuttal and the diss track Frick Da Police, while criticizing iDubbbz's own use of racist and homophobic slurs and arguing that older RiceGum clips had been presented without sufficient context. iDubbbz then released Content Deputy - AJP and said it would be his final response. The direct video war largely ended in October 2017, but the rivalry resurfaced as a proposed boxing match. RiceGum publicly challenged iDubbbz to box in 2018. In 2021, iDubbbz said RiceGum had renewed the challenge through his wife Anisa, but that negotiations collapsed when RiceGum sought a larger payment and ultimately declined. iDubbbz's attempt to preserve the boxing project evolved into the charity event Creator Clash, making the failed RiceGum bout a significant later consequence of the original feud.

RiceGum invited iDubbbz to make a Content Cop about him

RiceGum uploaded MESSAGE TO IDUBBBZ THE CONTENT COP. He said he wanted iDubbbz to make him a future target of the Content Cop series and stated that if iDubbbz made the video, he would respond with a diss track. This establishes that RiceGum publicly solicited the confrontation more than a year before the main 2017 exchange.

iDubbbz released Content Cop - Jake Paul, a 31-minute critique of RiceGum

iDubbbz published a Content Cop titled Content Cop - Jake Paul even though the subject was RiceGum. He said he used Jake Paul's name so RiceGum would not receive the satisfaction of having his name and face in the title and thumbnail. The episode framed RiceGum through a seven-deadly-sins structure and criticized his public persona, wealth-flexing, a disputed giveaway, sexual comments in older videos, and an earlier joke made to a rape survivor. Some of the segment's conclusions and labels were iDubbbz's characterization rather than independently established findings. The episode also used racially charged and derogatory humor directed at RiceGum.

iDubbbz and Boyinaband released the RiceGum diss track Asian Jake Paul

The Content Cop ended with the music video Asian Jake Paul, performed by iDubbbz with Boyinaband. A separate upload was also published the same day. The track mocked RiceGum's career, public image and controversies and included cameos from several YouTube creators. The song later reached number 24 on Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales chart. The original YouTube music-video upload later became unavailable after a copyright claim and has survived through archives and reuploads.

RiceGum released a 22-minute rebuttal to Content Cop

In My Response to Content Cop (Diss Track), RiceGum argued that iDubbbz had falsely presented him as arrogant and greedy and had harmed his subscriber and engagement numbers. RiceGum acknowledged that the older rape-joke clip was embarrassing to him, but argued that it was old material and contrasted it with clips of iDubbbz making offensive statements of his own. He highlighted iDubbbz's repeated use of racial and homophobic slurs and accused iDubbbz of hypocrisy. These points represented RiceGum's defense and counter-accusations; they did not independently resolve whether iDubbbz's broader criticisms were accurate.

RiceGum released the diss track Frick Da Police

RiceGum released Frick Da Police as a direct musical response to iDubbbz. The track mocked iDubbbz's appearance, age and career, accused him of being obsessed with RiceGum, referenced iDubbbz's offensive language and included threats and derogatory jokes as part of the diss-track performance. The song also continued RiceGum's defense of wealth-flexing as part of his public persona. The track later entered multiple music charts, showing that the feud crossed from YouTube commentary into commercially distributed music.

iDubbbz said the planned RiceGum boxing match had fallen apart

In You're hiding from me..., iDubbbz said RiceGum had renewed the idea of a fight by messaging his wife Anisa earlier in 2021. According to iDubbbz, he then spent months speaking with promoters, venues and boxing contacts to make an event possible. He said RiceGum later stopped cooperating and sought a much larger payment, while iDubbbz wanted his own proceeds to go to charity. These details about private negotiations are iDubbbz's account and cannot be independently reconstructed in full from public material. He publicly asked RiceGum to fight and invited other creators to replace him if RiceGum would not participate.

In an interview with Dexerto before Creator Clash, iDubbbz said he had initially underestimated the difficulty and seriousness of organizing boxing and that he no longer expected RiceGum to take the work required for a bout seriously. He described Doctor Mike as a better fit because Mike trained seriously and supported the charity concept. These assessments represented iDubbbz's view of RiceGum and the failed negotiations.

In a Know Your Meme interview, iDubbbz gave a retrospective account of the boxing dispute. He said RiceGum had wanted to turn the post-Content Cop rivalry into a boxing event in 2018, that years later RiceGum again contacted Anisa about a fight, and that this prompted iDubbbz to pursue the challenge seriously. He stated that the original plan was to fight RiceGum but the opponent eventually became Doctor Mike. He also said that believing he could beat RiceGum was part of what motivated him to try boxing.

iDubbbz broadly repudiated parts of his old Content Cop-era behavior

In I miss the old idubbbz, iDubbbz reflected on how his older material had encouraged cruelty and harassment and said he had changed his views on using offensive language and on the culture created around some Content Cop videos. He announced that Content Cop episodes would be unlisted while remaining available for reference. His most direct personal apology in the video focused on Tana Mongeau rather than RiceGum, so the publication should not be treated as a specific apology to RiceGum. It nevertheless marks a later change in iDubbbz's public assessment of the style and consequences of the Content Cop era that included the RiceGum feud.
