The feud and hatred is certainly not over between rappers Drake and Common!

According to reports, Drake and Common got into not only one, but two separate fights while they were at the backstage of the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday. Each time, the altercation between Drake and Common had to be broken up by “uniformed police.”

Common finally admitted that he rapped about Drake in one of his songs. Additionally, Common claimed that he and Drake had long settled the argument between them.

Common told Fuse in an interview:

“It was all in the art of Hip Hop but it’s kind of over now. It’s over. But it was all in the art of Hip Hop. He said some things to me so I had to say some things back… I wouldn’t say [he started it] but I know I heard something that I felt was directed to me so I addressed it. That’s all. But you know, thank God we were able to move forward from it and all is good.”

The enmity between Common and Drake began when Common dropped a line in his song “Sweet,” stating “Singing all around me man, la la la/You ain’t mutha—-ing Frank Sinatra,” which many believed to be about Drake, and later confirmed by Common. Drake apparently retaliated with Common’s attack with a track titled “Stay Schemin’” with lyrics such as ““t’s feeling like rap changed, it was a time it was rugged/Back when if a ni–a reached it was for the weapon, nowadays ni–as reach just to sell their record.”
