Common Confirms Meeting With Drake, Says Beef Is Officially Over

Saturday, February 25, 20120 comments

Nearly two weeks ago, reports surfaced about an alleged confrontation between Common and Drake during the 2012 Grammy Awards. However, neither camp had confirmed any such incident ... until now.

In a recent interview on SportsCenter's Cabbie Presents, Common admitted that the two had a run-in, had a conversation, but it was actually before the Grammys.

"We had a talk, we had a conversation. It was a face-to-face, man-to-man, a positive thing," the rapper explained. "It was a good conversation. I've learned to respect him even more. I already thought he was a talented guy, but just from the conversation we had, I hold even more respect for him.

"We saw each other and the conversation was initiated," Common continued. "It was just a respectful conversation that needed to be had, so he knew that I'm not at him trying to destroy him as a human being. It was a hip-hop battle to me. I had to put all of those things into hip-hop... I gave him a pound, gave him a boom and it was all love."

So, it's true folks, the Common-Drake beef is resolved. Stick a fork in it.

There was speculation that the beef stemmed from Drake dating his ex-girlfriend, tennis star Serena Williams. Though he admits that many fights may begin over women, Common says that it all started from Drizzy taking shots at him.

"Nah, it wasn't about Serena," he admitted. "The battle is over, it's all love. But it was more based on the fact that I felt like Drake was taking a couple of shots at me, and saying a couple of things that I felt like were towards me. Once that was said, I felt a little disrespected and it kept going on and I decided to say what I needed to say at that point.

"It was a good battle, we got it done, it's done. It's over. It's not over any woman," Common concluded.
