Being that many rappers have decided to reconcile with former foes recently, XXL could not help but think of other highly publicized squabbles in hip-hop that ultimately came to an end. In the last month alone, Chris Brown and Drake have reconnected, Ja Rule let go of past rifts with 50 Cent, and The Game deemed his feud with 50 Cent as immature and stupid...

The big news of the day is Kendrick Lamar's "diss" of Drake in K. Dot's BET Cypher freestyle at the upcoming 2013 BET Hip-Hop Awards.
