Common and Drizzy traded shots in the early 2010s
Common discusses the roots of his feud with Drake in the early 2010s that saw the two exchange diss records like “Sweet” & “Stay Schemin.” Recently speaking on Drink Champs, Common explained that he felt like Drizzy was aiming his guns at him after he started dating the Chicago MC’s ex Serena Williams.
“I felt like Drake was sending me a couple of shots, subliminals,” Common explained. “I don’t know what motivated him to send me some shots but I think what for sure had me, if I’m just being real, like you know, we mess with one of the same girls. You know wars happen over women. That’s just what it is.”
He continued, “I ain’t going to get at you if you with somebody I was with. But if you start throwing me a couple little, you know, you trying to throw some jabs then I’m like, ‘Come on, man, okay.’”
