Fivio Foreign has been accused of using cocaine by former friend Ether Da Connect, who made the accusation after the pair got into a fight outside the Devin Haney and Ryan Garcia boxing match in New York City.
On Saturday (April 20), soon after the fight commenced, footage of the incident began making the rounds on social media rounds. The two people involved subsequently took to their respective Instagram Stories to address the ordeal.
“Betchu that big bozo n-gga won’t go live about how I punched him in [the] face outside the Barclay,” Fivio wrote on social media. “This why I don’t care to respond to none of these tough guys.. Boy said wait that’s my brother. N-gga we ain’t brothers tf. I would post the vid of boy running but I don’t condone internet movies. New Music coming soon.”
It didn’t take long for Ether to hit back with some accusations of his own.
“All I’ma say is cocaine is a helluva drug,” he fired back. “That’s all I’m saying. Listen, y’all take that and y’all do what y’all want to do with that. God bless.”

Ether Da Connect isn’t the only artist that Fivio Foreign has taken shots at. Last month, the Brooklyn native threw shade at Ice Spice, claiming that he simply can’t accept the idea that she’s the “King of New York.”
During an appearance on On the Radar Radio last month, he spat a few very angry bars about the Bronx native while also shouting out Tory Lanez in the process.
“How can a girl be the King of New York?” he raps. “Real n-gga, hood livin’, free Tory, he in good spirits.”
The comments in question came from A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie’s, who praise Ice Spice during an appearance on Adin Ross’ channel.
When asked who he thinks the current King of New York is, A Boogie replied: “Ice Spice got it right now … I feel like Ice is just wildin’ right now. She got it right now.”
The internet personality then suggested that the two rappers should link up for a song, to which A Boogie was receptive as he said: “For real, though.”
The “Drowning” hitmaker also offered his definition of the “King of New York,” saying: “I feel like the people, the fans, make it that. I never really forced that on people. I was never on songs like, ‘I’m the King of New York.’
“It was a lot of people that was out here doing that and made people give their opinions. But on my end, that shit just fell in my lap. I’m just doing my thing. I like making fire music. The beauty of it is being able to sell out arenas.”
