Young Buck and Starlito have squashed their longstanding beef, the two confirmed in a post on social media, Sunday. The two have been at odds since 2017, when Buck confronted Starlito at a basketball event in Nashville, Tennessee. In a video of the incident, they put their hands on each other and yelled insults. Afterward, both rappers dropped diss tracks aimed at one another.

“We Don’t Owe Nobody No Explanation Or Explaining!!!!,” Buck captioned a new photo of himself with Starlito. “Just Know Our Misunderstanding Has Been Squashed [100 emojis] !!! On That Note…. @starlitogrindhard LETS GOOOO [Exclamation point emojis] #Cashville ITS [UP! emojis] [Rocket emojis].”

Young Buck then followed up his original post with an IG Story tagging Starlito. It read: “Big win [Gold number one medal emoji] for the city, proud to see this.” The two were friends prior to their spat, having collaborated on several songs including 2016’s “Streets Sour,” 2013’s “Countin’ My Pockets,” and 2012’s “Wake Up.”

Fans were plenty excited about the two rappers reuniting once again. "I’m Proud Of Y’all … Now It’s Finna Make Sense," one commented. Another added, "Two of the greatest artists that ever touched a mic. Cashville Goats." One more fan further called on the two to collaborate once again: "My 2 favorite rappers back locked in….drop that music we been waiting for."

As for their respective diss tracks, Starlito kicked the back and forth off with “You Should Be Proud.” On the song, he raps, “Nobody ever did it bigger for the ‘Ville than Buck/ But I’m realer and I really don’t even give a fuck/ How the fuck you know you never know who fuck with who/Playing both sides ain’t cool/ I don’t fuck with you/ I always pay homage/ I always kept it honest/ You call me ’cause you thought I tried to holler at your baby mama." Buck fired back on his own song, “Lawd Have Mercy.”
