An ongoing feud between BTS fans and Korean rapper B-Free has drawn in remarks from an American rapper who goes by the same name.
Years after a public squabble between Korean hip-hop artist B-Free and K-pop group BTS, the controversy has been reignited on Twitter.
The Hi-Lite Record rapper fired back at BTS fans over the weekend after they refused to accept his public apology on Twitter for an insult-slinging incident that is said to have occurred in November 2013.
"I swear BTS got some retarded ass fans," the rapper tweeted. "Y'all did it congrats! When I see your oppas I'mma bitch slap them so hard for all of y'all thank you."
Within minutes, the tweets were met by strong reactions from BTS fans, and even caught the attention of a Detroit-based rapper who also goes by the name of B-Free.
Unintentionally drawn into the Twitter mayhem the Hi-Lite Records rapper caused, the American B-Free took sides with BTS and showed support for the group.
"You can tell by my music that im way better than @realbfree so learn to respect @BTS_twt and stop slandering my name," B-Free of Detroit tweeted.
The quarrell started during Kim Bong Hyun's Hip-Hop Invitational 1st Anniversary Broadcast on Nov. 21, 2013 when B-Free reportedly made negative remarks about makeup worn BTS rappers Suga and Rap Monster.
