Yung Bans has been at the forefront of the "Fuck Russ" movement. Over the past few days, Russ has spoken out about how he pulled up on a few rappers during a festival in the U.K. Ultimately, footage of Smokepurpp getting beat up by Russ' crew surfaced. However, it seems like it's all love between Yung Bans and Russ these days as both rappers have declared that they've deaded their beef.
Yung Bans hopped on Twitter today to announce that he and Russ got on the phone to talk out their issues with each other. Bans said that everything is love between them after they had a conversation and he now respects where Russ is coming from.
"Just got off the phone with @russdiemon and it’s all love," he wrote. "Sometimes you gotta put yourself in the other persons shoes as a real n***a, it’s quiet for the fuck Russ shit he hit me as a real person and lmk his view on the shit and I respect it so it’s dead."
Russ later retweeted the tweet with four prayer emojis.
While Russ has made peace with Bans, he also received an invitation from Tekashi 6ix9ine to join Treyway. Shortly after the footage of Russ' crew fighting Smokepurpp emerged, Tekashi 6ix9ine wrote, "Russ welcome to Treyway" in an Instagram post before deleting it.
