Ice Cube and Common have come a long way since their high-profile beef in the mid '90s, with both of them succeeding not only in the rap scene but also becoming accomplished actors. So it's only right that they link up on "Real People," which will be featured on the upcoming soundtrack for Barbershop: The Next Cut, which stars both of them. "Real People" is a perfect example of two true MCs coming together for the greater good and delivering meaningful rhymes to inspire.

Complex also caught up with Ice Cube and Common on the set of the music video for "Real People," where the two celebrated artists opened up about squashing their beef, the concept behind their new collaborative single, and starring in Barbershop: The Next Cut. You can check out our exclusive behind-the-scenes video below and be on the lookout for Barbershop: The Next Cut Original Motion Picture Soundtrack to be released soon. Barbershop: The Next Cut comes out April 15.
