Russ alluded to the fact that his crew beat up either Yung Bans or Smokepurpp backstage at a festival in the U.K. Shortly after, it was confirmed that it was Smokepurpp who was targetted by Russ' security team. Shortly after, Yung Bans -- a prominent force in the "Fuck Russ" movement -- said that he and Russ got on the phone and settled their differences. A day later and Yung Bans is claiming that his social media accounts were hacked by his manager.

"yall not gon believe what happened yesterday my manager hacked me changed my passwords and tweeted out saying its not fuck russ anymore cause he felt I should squash the beef," He wrote on Instagram, "smh my true 1of1 fans know i aint scared of no nigga I ain’t lil purpp so if it’s smoke @russ better come with it frfr kid.. FUCK RUSS 4L I would never betray my fans we stand on 10 & my niggas gon die bout dis 1OF1 shit ongod!"

What's peculiar about Bans' latest Instagram post is that his initial tweet revealed that he got on the phone with Russ to squash their beef. Russ seemingly confirmed it on his response on Twitter. Russ simply retweeted the tweet with four praying hand emojis. 

At this point, it's clear that Bans' beef with Russ is far from over, but maybe one day they'll both actually settle their differences indefinitely.
