‘Fizz You Were Just Apologizing to This Man’: Omarion and Lil Fizz Seemingly Throw Shade at Each Other on Instagram

Fans have speculated that B2K members Omarion and Lil Fizz haven’t settled their beef after all after the childhood friends and former bandmates were seemingly being shady and snubbing each other on social media.

The “Bump, Bump, Bump” vocalist and rapper’s Instagram stories, both referenced referenced the label of “lame” in their posts.

Omarion posted a quote that said, “Never let lame s–t make you do lame s–t, stay solid.” An hour later, Fizz posted, “If the shoes fit, buy [peace sign emoji] pair. Lame a– n—-a”

Fans were left confused and theorized that the ex-brothers were referring to each other in their posts. 

“The gurlss are fighting still.”

“At this point they all need to get in a ring and let that hurt go.”

“Definitely sassy for subtweeting each other.”

“B2k beef in 2022, amazing.”

“Y’all really ruining my childhood vibes.” 

Fans were also shocked by the alleged shade being thrown, considering the two seemed to have squashed their beef last year during the Millennial Tour. Fizz issued an apology on stage to his former bandmate for dating Omarion’s ex-girlfriend, Apryl Jones. During the apology, Fizz called Omarion, “his brother” and the two later shared a hug. 

“He just apologized to Omarion on stage in front of of the world and they hugged. What is going on?”

“Lil Fizz need to sit this one out, he wrong forever.”

“Fizz you were just apologizing to this man.”

“My whole thing with Fizz is, why come on stage and apologize to Omarion just to act like this again?”

Omarion and Apryl were together for four years and share two kids, but the pair called it quits in 2016. Three years later, the “Beds” singer popped out with his homie’s ex as the two made things official in 2019. 

Many fans believed the real reason behind the suspected shade is due to surface tension surrounding Apryl. 

“I know there’s still tension over Apryl”

“Fizz shouldn’t even say s–t, he messed with his best friend’s bm”

“Fizz will always be a lame for that Apryl s–t, and that’s just facts”

“Fizz broke the bro code!”

Since the breakup with Fizz in 2020, Apryl has been dating “The Best Man” actor Taye Diggs, and fans believe Omarion and Fizz need to move on just like her. 

“Apryl has moved on, so they should too”

“Apryl is living her best life! Let it go”

“Meanwhile, Apryl seems happy”

While it still remains unclear who the B2K members were snubbing, fans created their own assumptions with their own solutions. 

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
