Common recalls Drizzy’s pops intervening in their feud
Common and Drake once found themselves briefly on the opposite sides of the battle field in the early 2010s after the latter began a romantic relationship with the former’s ex Serena Williams.
During a recent sit-down on Drink Champs along with producer Pete Rock, Common revealed that Drizzy’s dad Dennis Graham pushed them to burry the hatchet at the 2012 Grammy Awards.
“I eventually saw Drake face to face,” the Chicago rapper recounted. “It was at a point where I was like, ‘Wassup?’ And we had little words.
“And then his father was there and was like, ‘Y’all need to squash this.’ And I was like, ‘Man, this an elder talking to me. This this man’s father. Let me chill out.’ And then Drake just was like, ‘I ain’t on this.’ So we just squashed it.”
He added, “I was like, ‘Listen, if we face to face, then aight, I’m done with it. Even if it was some subliminal disses, I said what I had to say. Right now, we saying we squashing it. We good.’”
