‘Best Friend’ beauty Saweetie has long felt she hasn’t had a friend in one of music’s top DJs – Ebro Darden.

The longtime host of Hot 97’s ‘Ebro in the Morning’ made the rising rapstress go viral in 2018 when he referred to her on-air freestyle as “basic” – an occurence she recently told ‘Cosmopolitan’ gave her PTSD.

As hoopla around her recount of that incident began to heat up, Darden just so happened to go on Twitter rant about the state of music.
