In related news, Youngboy dissed Drake on the album for siding with him enemy Lil Durk. “Talk to Drake, cross FaceTime, he wasn’t feelin’ me / Told me that he f**k with Durk, damn, that sh*t gettin’ to me / Told me that he like the sh*t I’m doin’, but can’t do sh*t with me / So when we cross our ways, f**k what you say, bi**h, you my enemy,” he rapped for Drake.
