Common Details His Iconic Battle with Ice Cube & How Farrakhan Squashed It

They was both young af and representing they hood in they cities respectfully but now they both in they 50’s and have matured alot im pretty sure if 2pac and biggie would have made it there 50’s they would’ve squashed there beef as well and became friends and made more classic timeless music together and maybe 2pac would have let biggie be in some of his movies in the future as well

[@Mist3rdiggs]

I’m a Los Angeles, Ca Hip-Hop artist. I opened for West Side Connection a number of times. I remember when the diss went down. Although the West is my side I’m still an artist. Cube could never fade Common. I respect Cube but as far as lyrics, styles and an understanding of music. Common is a complete Hip/Hop artist.

[@samsonokoro5036]

They both were on a track called Real People soundtrack for Barbershop the next cut. Cube had the better verse even though Common had a dope verse too. If u listen to the interview they both gave after the song, Common himself said when he heard Cube's lyrics on the track he had to go rewrite his verse to come hard and still his verse wasn't as dope as Cube. So when u try to insinuate that Common is the better emcee that's just a joke

[@patrickoakley7890]
