Ice Cube Says Beef With Common Was A ‘Dark Moment’ In His Career

Ice Cube is coming clean about his beef with Common. During an interview on Talib Kwali’s podcast, People’s Party, Cube says that the beef was squashed during a meeting with Minister Louis Farrakhan. 

The beef started with Common’s song, “I Used To Be H.E.R.,” which Cube took as a diss to West coast rappers.

The two rappers squashed the beef and Common went on to star in Cube’s film, Barbershop 3.

“We knew we wasn’t going to get Michael Ealy back and we was looking for a guy who could be that and bring a different presence. When [Common’s] name came up, I was like, ‘Hell yeah.'” said Cube.

Ice Cube called his beef with Common a “dark moment” in his career and says, “Common was a good dude, I don’t think he deserved it. I was just in my feelings.” 

Looking back on disagreements you had with people, do you think you were valid for beefing with them or were you like Cube and “in your feelings?”
