And you know what\u2019s funnier than a troll? A BROKE ONE,\u201d Brown wrote on his Instagram Story. He didn\u2019t name McCall, but the timing and tone made the target obvious.<\/p>\n The jab followed McCall\u2019s tearful appearance on the \u201cBack On Figg\u201d podcast, where he revealed he\u2019s struggling financially despite penning several of Brown\u2019s early hits, including \u201cDeuces\u201d and \u201cStrip.\u201d<\/p>\n During the nearly three-hour episode<\/a>, McCall pulled out his EBT card and asked why he\u2019s in poverty while Brown lives lavishly.<\/p>\n \u201cWhy the f### I got an EBT card? And this n#### is at Breezy Bowl and made ninety-or-whatever-the-f###-million,\u201d McCall said, visibly emotional. \u201cCan I get $25K for them four songs I owe you, bro?\u201d<\/p>\n He broke down in tears, saying, \u201cThat s### ain\u2019t fair, bro!\u201d<\/p>\n Kevin McCall breaks down in tears after revealing he relies on an EBT card, despite having written songs for Chris Brown\u2014who recently made $90 million from his tour \ud83d\ude33<\/p>\n pic.twitter.com\/mhpPaCYgDr<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 My Mixtapez (@mymixtapez) October 21, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n The clip quickly went viral, prompting Young Thug to offer his support.

The two collaborated on several successful records in the early 2010s before falling out publicly.<\/p>\n Between 2014 and 2016, McCall accused Brown of withholding royalties and pleaded for a meeting to sort out business matters. Brown responded by mocking him online, calling him a \u201cbottom feeder\u201d and threatening violence.<\/p>\n In resurfaced footage, Brown dismissed McCall\u2019s complaints, saying he used the money from their collaborations to buy awards and cars, then added, \u201cwith [McCall\u2019s] money,\u201d before calling him a \u201cb####.\u201d<\/p>\n Chris Brown already replied to this clown years ago\u2026 https:\/\/t.co\/47wWrrxgXC<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/VHZaSauLXF<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 \ud835\udd8d\ud835\udd8a\ud835\udd91\ud835\udd94 (@hwloiza) October 21, 2025<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n McCall also opened up during the podcast about his estrangement from his children, including a daughter he shares with model Eva Marcille, and admitted to having suicidal thoughts.<\/p>\n <\/p><\/div>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/allhiphop.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/Screenshot-2025-10-22-at-08.46.36.png?resize=508%2C628&ssl=1)
