George Clinton of "Parliament-Funkadelic" once referred to "Earth, Wind, and Fire" as "Earth, Hot Air, and No Fire."

Larry Blackmon of "Cameo" once accused "Kool and the Gang" of plagerism.

Too many rap artists to list took jabs at one another. I will just make an obvious and list that Jay-Z and Nas took many shots at one another back and forth.

On the 5150 album there is a song called "The Inside" which takes a jab at David Lee Roth. The song really slams Dave but good. :lol:

The Temptations' "Superstar" is supposedly a pot shot at departed members David Ruffin and Eddie Kendricks.
