Chris Brown and Kirar ‘Offset’ Cephus got into a heated Instagram fight in 2019, and it all revolved around rapper Shéyaa ’21 Savage’ Abraham-Joseph. The beef began after 21 Savage was arrested that year by Immigration and Customs Enforcement for overstaying in the United States for more than a decade. Following his arrest, the “With You” singer posted a music video of 21 Savage to his Instagram with a British rapper overdubbing 21 Savage.
Offset didn’t take too kindly to Brown making a dig at his friend, and he commented on the since-deleted post (via The Shade Room) writing, “Memes ain’t funny lame.” Brown proceeded to fire off at Offset, commenting back a series of expletives including: “F**K YOU LIL BOY … SENSITIVE ASS N**** … IF YOU A REAL MAN FIGHT ME. Oh and another thing, SUCK MY D*CK!!!!” Offset shaded the “No Air” singer in a since-removed Instagram Story (via Entertainment Tonight) following the exchange, calling out the R&B singer for his 2009 felony assault on Rihanna. “Check my record and check yours only people you go toe to toe with is women,” Offset wrote.

Offset admitted in an interview with Hot97 that he regretted the back-and-forth with Brown. “I shouldn’t have even did that,” he said, adding, “…when something goes left, the internet gonna tell on you and the person gonna tell on you. I ain’t trying to get in no trouble.” 21 Savage addressed the incident with the New York Times, saying: “I been shot — what is a meme? A meme is nothing.”
