Chris Brown and Migos rapper Quavo have been at odds for several years and recently saw some fresh developments in the music scene.Show more

The beef between rap sensations Chris Brown and Quavo (a member of the Migos) has become a hot topic once again after the former dropped his "Weakest Link" diss track on April 20, 2024, filled with some dicy shots.
Chris Brown dated American socialite/ actress Karrueche Tran from November 2010 to March 2015, including a break in the middle. During that time, the singer rekindled his relationship with pop sensation Rihanna.
Quavo and Tran have since been pictured together many times over the years, with rumors the two were dating going as far back as 2017. TMZ stated in April 2017 that the pair had been on multiple dates after starting out as just friends.

According to a later article from TMZ, Brown felt betrayed that Quavo had started seeing his ex-girlfriend as the pair had both a business and personal relationship.

The pair worked together on a number of songs including "Whippin," "Just for Tonight," "Leaning," and more, with Brown having seemingly helped promote the Migos' 2017 album Culture while Quavo was secretly dating his ex-girlfriend.

In a March 2017 interview with Billboard, just before the beef began, Brown praised all the Migos as "real friends and brothers" before vowing to "never hate on [them]" (although the latter comment certainly didn't age well):

"I just want to shout out y'all. Y'all my real friends and brothers. I bought your album three times. I spent my own money and s--t. I'm proud of you n***as. I will never hate on you n***as."
Karrueche Tran took out a restraining order against Brown in February 2017 (via TMZ) around the same time her relationship with Quavo allegedly began. She claimed the artist had been violent toward her in the past and made death threats.

Many have speculated the fresh relationship between Tran and Quavo may have spawned the restraining order to allow them to date without issue.

Since then, Brown and Quavo have seemingly never been on good terms, with the beef reigniting lately when the two fired shots at each other on recent tracks.

On Brown's song "Freak," released on April 10 as part of his 11:11 deluxe album, he mentioned Quavo "f***in' [his] old b***hes." And just one day later on the song "Tender," the Migos rapper appeared to fire back with disses on his break-up with Tran and Brown's history of domestic violence.
