Brickz and Cleo were on RGB speaking about what went wrong in their friendship. The two were considered a power duo and created many hits together in the late 2000's. But they had a ten year feud which was only recently cleared up.

Speaking to Phat Joe on the show DJ Cleo blamed the feud on drugs.

"I lost my mom. I lost my gran. My gran was like my father. I lost two of the most important people in my life. When the money started rolling in, you never know what to do with it, really. I spent about two bar on drugs."
