Mack 10 Says Fat Joe Saved Common's Life During Beef With Ice Cube

by Daryl Nelson

Mack 10 has been spilling the beans to DJ Vlad.

In addition to speaking on his own broken relationship with Ice Cube, he talked about Cube's old issues with Common.

According to Mack, Fat Joe in for Common when the Chicago rapper had things go south with Cube.

Common and Cube started beefing after Com dropped his 1994 classic "I Used to Love H.E.R." Cube took offense over some lines he said about the West Coast. The Westside Connection dropped "Westside Slaughterhouse" in response, and Common responded with "The Bitch in Yoo."

But Mack implied that Common's boy got hurt when they saw him in L.A., but not Common since Fat Joe stepped in.

"The issue was with his homeboy. It wasn't even about the diss record," Mack explained. "The issue came [when] his homeboy stepped out. I don't know, maybe he was feeling some kind of way about the diss record. So it was Common's homeboy that kicked it off ... Things didn't go that smooth with his partner."

Who would you say won the battle between Common and Westside Connection back then?
