Soulja Boy vs. Chris Brown:

A Timeline of Their Beef

 

We can thank Chris Brown and Soulja Boy for starting the first celebrity feud of 2017, which–of course–started over something petty! Complex has done a great job of chronicling the social media beef between the two artists, which began after Soulja Boy left flirtatious emojis under a photo posted on Instagram of Brown’s ex-girlfriend, Kaurreche Tran.

In response, Wale got extra petty, tweeting:
