Music News: Big Boi and Killer Mike Squash The Beef!!!

After a three year feud of not speaking, subliminal and overt insults and an alleged physical confrontation, Outkast's Big Boi and his former artist Killer Mike have reconciled. Atlanta's Maurice G. Garland, reported on the meeting firsthand. It seems both artists were encouraged to resolve the simmering conflict at the urging of close family members and a nasty bout of Atlanta weather.

"A bad storm hit Atlanta and knocked the power out over a large portion of the city, including the studio where Mike planned to record [another 'Sunday Morning Massacre']," writes Garland. "Big Boi's uncle Darnell and Bear were encouraging Big to peace things up once and for all." Big's son Cross provided the additional prodding to bring Killer Mike and his father together after both men initially attempted to hide their strained relationship from their children. Later, both men spoke on the phone to resolve all of their underlying issues, and later met at an event yesterday, where the following photo was taken.

I was shocked they were in a beef, but to happy that they squashed it HOPE HOPE HOPE that they make sum music together again real soon.
