The two have been absolutely relentless at each other online, and it doesn't seem like things will slow down.

DDG called Rubi Rose a "wannabe Ice Spice" in a since-deleted tweet, continuing a barrage of back-and-forth claims. Moreover, it all started when DDG and his girlfriend Halle Bailey started unfollowing each other on social media, which fans quickly took as a breakup. However, when the rapper's ex Rose got involved, things took a turn for the juicier. She tweeted a message about someone letting their "b***h" wear her clothes, which users quickly pointed at Bailey. In a selfie, she wore the exact same T-shirt that Rubi wore in another picture, although many didn't take it that seriously. Still, things got more heated when Rose posted alleged DMs between her and DDG.

Moreover, the messages apparently show the Detroit rapper asking Rubi if she's in Los Angeles. Then, she told him, "U hitting me the day y'all argue is so u lol," referring to his alleged issues with Halle. The rapper quickly denied those claims and started to go at Rubi on social media. In fact, a hilarious clip of him reacting to those messages pouring in sees him quite frustrated. In a now-deleted tweet, he said "[Cap] u old news gang. U a wannabe Ice Spice now [clown emoji] This the most relevant u been in years. Quit posting that weak ass music you didn't write on your story."

Later, she quote tweeted that message with "U so f***ing sassy wtf lol." Also, she tweeted, and deleted, "Get ur family before I say sumn fr lol." Moreover, she likely referred to DDG's sister's messages for her. "Y'all can tell [Rubi Rose] I want all the smoke..." she wrote. "I owe that b***h an ass whoopin anyway for that s**t she pulled with my mama and sister.. B***hes always wanna bully the sweet girls."

Meanwhile, Halle Bailey stepped in to set the record straight. "The devil is working," she wrote. "Lol please don't feed into the lies, especially from a third party. Stay blessed everyone." In a quote retweet, DDG expressed, "Can y'all let my meat go now. Rubi is a weirdo. She been hating on my relationship for years."
