Elon Musk and rapper O’Shea Jackson Sr., popularly known as Ice Cube, exchanged sharp words following a meme posted by the former on his social media platform X, formerly Twitter.
What Happened: It all began when Musk, who acquired the X for $44 billion in 2022, posted an old meme comparing Ice Cube to an “ice cube” with the caption, “Remember Ice Cube? This is him now, feel old yet?”
The “Friday” rapper swiftly fired back, targeting Musk’s tumultuous tenure at the helm of X with a meme of the platform’s former bird logo alongside a dumpster fire that read, “Remember Twitter? This it now, feel stupid yet?”
