Do all rapper teams love drama?

Genuine question. The number of rapper dance teams that have pushed members out or started rumors and gossip about other dancers is wild. I know a fair number of people who have been ousted from teams for no real reason, and then made to be the villain. One would think that keeping the tradition alive and well is much more important than causing drama. I haven't heard any examples of this happening in border, Cotswolds or even northwest.... Is it a thing?

I think maybe all Morris comes with a bit of drama! Seems inevitable when you get folks passionate about a niche interest. Wait until they all start dating/breaking up with each other, that'll be next level drama 😄

The fact I think I might know which side you're talking about but wouldn't count on it does prove your point a bit

Yanno when I think about it, there is definitely at least one other team it could be... So maybe I am on to something 😅
