Chris Brown freestyles on two Kanye songs, Rihanna unfollows him on Twitter

by Aaron Zorgel

Around 2:00 A.M. last night, Chris Brown posted two freestyles over top of two recent Kanye West songs, “Way Too Cold (Theraflu),” and “Mercy”:

What’s the big deal, right? Well, here’s where it gets juicy.

About 5 minutes after Chris Brown posted his freestyles, giving her just enough time to listen to both, Rihanna unfollowed Chris Brown, and tweeted this:

Can I get a Bajan hashtag translator? Correct me if I’m way off on this, but I’m going to assume that “#neaux1currrrr” means “no one cares.”

So what exactly did Rihanna take personal offense to in these freestyles? Something tells me that it could be these lyrics, from the “Way Too Cold (Theraflu)” freestyle:

“Don’t fuck with my old bitch, it’s like a bad fur
Every industry nigga done had her
Trick-or-treat like a pumpkin just to smash her
Bitches breaking codes, but I’m the password.”

There’s nothing like saying you’ll smash Rihanna like a pumpkin to remind her that you pretty much did that a few years ago.

I think it’s pretty clear that Chris Brown was referencing Rihanna in his “Way Too Cold (Theraflu)” freestyle, but the rageaholic R&B singer denied it on Twitter this morning:

Hopefully this is enough for Rihanna to swear off Chris Brown for good. That “Birthday Cake” remix from a couple months ago made it sound like they could have rekindled things. With Rihanna in a fragile state lately, the last thing she needs is an abusive ex-boyfriend rapping about smashing her like a pumpkin. What a dick.
