COMMON VS. DRAKE. Nobody really saw this coming: Common, a man who built his name on being one of the sweetest and most thoughtful and generally softest men in rap, taking Drake to task on his track "Sweet" for singing too much and for being soft. Common threw a couple of soft-batch subliminal jabs at Drizzy on "Sweet," then admitted that Drake was his target in an interview a little while later. Gossip-sleuth types quickly figured out that Common might be pissed about Drake getting too close to his ex-ladyfriend Serena Williams, making this one of the most fascinating rapper/rapper/tennis star love triangles ever. Still, it's a bit sad to see Com reduced to this level of TMZ-bait nearly two decades after he stood toe-to-toe with a peaking Ice Cube on "The Bitch In Yoo."
