In the James Brown and Joe Tex situation it was over a woman. Males have been killing over females before humans existed on this planet.There was two guys that had a musical beef....one shot up the club where the other was performing, hit several people, and allegedly had to pay them off to keep them from talking to police.
So who were these guys? Drill rappers?
No, it was James Brown and Joe Tex.
The reason you ain't heard about it is because the internet wasn't around to broadcast it.
As far as jazz, etc. I'm sure @IllmaticDelta can list off a gang of violent beefs in virtually every genre you can think of.
Again, De La Soul never had these issues. You cats keep focusing on street dudes that just happen to rap, and blaming rap. Yo Gotti included. Ain't nobody trying to kill J Cole.
Fred.
These deaths are over nonsense.
