The 10 worst rappers to start a beef with (With Pictures)

8. Common

Don’t get it confused — conscious rappers will still throw down on the mic when it’s time to battle, and they’ll probably school you on the internal struggles of the lower-class while they’re at it.

Before the movies and the positive messages in his verses, Common was well immersed in hip-hop’s hardcore sub-genre. He’s from South Side Chicago after all, and is highly adept at recognizing the fake versus the real. Old school hip-hop heads will remember the Chi-Town rapper trading blows with Ice Cube.
