Drake disses Kanye West in a new verse, Ye responds.
The situation between Drake and Kanye West is heating up again. The Toronto rap star has reignited their feud as he disses the GOOD Music boss in a new Verse. Drake featured on a new Trippe Redd’s song called “Betrayal“, which appeared on the latest “Trip At Knight” album. At the end of his verse, Drizzy seems to be taking shots at Kanye, along with the GOOD Music president Pusha T.
“All these fools I’m beefin’ that I barely know
Forty-five, forty-four (burned out), let it go
Ye ain’t changin’ shit for me, it’s set in stone,” raps Drake.
In the following lines, Drake first mentions 44, the age of Kanye and Pusha T, then by calling “Ye”, he references the mysterious release date of Kanye’s new album “DONDA,” as it is believed that he’s waiting for Drizzy to announce his “Certified Lover Boy” release date so he can drop the project at the same time.
Now Kanye West has responded to Drake’s shots as he posted a screenshot of a group chat, which also has Pusha T. The members of the group are shown with their name initials, and it also has a “D”, which could possibly be Drake. In the group, Ye shared a picture of Joker (Joaquin Phoenix), and wrote, “I live for this. I’ve been f**ked with by nerd a** jock ni**as like you my whole life. You will never recover. I promise you.”
While there is no evidence that West’s text was in response to Drake, some have noticed that one of the bubbles at the top of the message (which displays the recipient’s first letter) began with the letter “D.”
Kanye West and Drake have had a tumultuous relationship for almost a decade. They had been cordial partners for years before a series of misunderstandings became nasty and tensions between their camps erupted. We’d seen many Subliminals in song lyrics, purple devil emoticons, crazy tweets, and full-fledged diss records between Kanye’s close collaborator Pusha-T and Drake before the end of the decade. Drake was rumored to have created a diss track that would “ruin” Kanye’s career at one time, but he opted not to release it
The post has now been removed from Kanye’s IG, but the screenshots are all over social media.

Drake on ‘Life is Good’ with Future:
‘Virgil got the Patek on my wrist doin’ front flips’
Kanye apparently wasn’t happy about not receiving one, and it appears he was telling Virgil Abloh that he wants him to make him one as well, but to ‘make his diamonds do backflips’ 👀 pic.twitter.com/TliGuQQIpi

I do believe that Drake’s disses towards Kanye West are becoming unnecessary. Kanye apologized to Drake and even took responsibility for his involvement in anything disrespectful towards him. There’s no reason to keep going afterwards. pic.twitter.com/WJj7JKB9mQ

#PushaT’s prior discussion about the “bromance” between #Drake and #KanyeWest with the @JoeBuddenPod sounds like if this is marketing for DONDA and CLB, Pusha is clueless.
