The story began a few weeks ago, when DJ Whoo Kid told London radio vet Tim Westwood that Brown “elbowed” Drake for “fooling around” with his famous ex, Rihanna, but both celebs covered up the incident to keep the feud out of the public eye.
“He has at least eight songs on the radio that [are] killing it. … And him and Rihanna are supposedly fooling around? I think he got elbowed too, by Chris Brown, but that never came out,” said Whoo Kid.
When asked where Drake had been hit, Whoo Kid explained, “In the chin, like the corner left part. Man down, simple as that!”
However, during a recent interview with The Daily Beast, Drake addressed the rumors, explaining that no such incident happened with Brown, whom he calls one of his friends.
“I respect Chris Brown. I’d like to call myself a friend — I don’t know if I’m allowed to do that,” said Drake. “But I definitely didn’t get elbowed in my face. Somebody would’ve got knocked the f–k out.”
Well, things may be copasetic between Drake and Brown, but here are three other incidents in hip-hop where the beef wasn’t just a rumor, but a real battle. –nicholas robinson
