Best Answer

Lennon and McCartney competed to write the best songs, and the songs that would be chosen as the A-sides of Beatles singles. (They worked together to fill the gaps in each other's lyrics.)
People called it 'The Musical Rivalry Between Lennon and McCartney' because John Lennon wanted to write rock n' roll music and Paul McCartney wanted to write more Pop Music.

There was a supposed rivalry between the two bands, but in fact they were friendly; Lennon & McCartney wrote I Wanna Be Your Man for the Stones and Lennon said that he envied Mick Jagger's lack of selling out that he felt the Beatles had done. Mick Jagger also sang on All You Need is Love and it's possible that he sang on Baby Your a Rich Man.
