Beefing and battling are as old as hip-hop. Lyrics that brag and taunt create conflict between artists, from rap battles to chart-topping hits. But sometimes the insults go too far and clashes can lead to actual violence. This “beefing” can have serious consequences... including death.
As part of Complexs Get Money initiative, the eight-part series Rules to This Sh*t covers the trials and tribulations of embarking on a rap career, with words of wisdom from Common, N.O.R.E., Too $hort, the late Nipsey Hussle, and more.
