The ongoing feud between Kanye West and Drake is seemingly far from over, as Kanye just
leaked his Toronto address not too long after Drake dissed him in a new rap verse.
Let’s get into it.
After many years of tension, Drake and Kanye West’s never-ending feud has been reignited
over the past week after Drake appeared to diss Kanye in his verse on Trippie Redd’s
latest single “Betrayal”.
In the verse, Drake raps the lyrics QUOTE, “All these fools I’m beefin’ that I
barely know / Forty-five, forty-four (Burned out), let it go / Ye ain’t changin’ sh*t
for me, it’s set in stone.”
Fans are convinced he refers to the fact that Kanye still has yet to release his upcoming
album Donda after continuously changing the release date and making false promises.
Some rumors have also surfaced alleging that both the rappers are waiting for each other
to release their albums, so the other can drop it on the same day, leading to a tense
battle on the charts.
As many fans know, Drake has also postponed his album Certified Lover Boy since January,
citing medical reasons as the cause of his delay.
After Kanye apparently got word of Drake’s
latest verse, he took to Instagram on Saturday to share a since-deleted text conversation
between what appears to be himself, Drake and many others, just before adding Pusha
T to the conversation, which read QUOTE, “You will never recover.
I promise you.”
Kanye also shared an image of the Joker played by Joaquin Phoenix to the conversation, buuuut
the beef didn’t stop there.
He then posted another since-deleted Instagram post of a map and an address as many have
confirmed that this is actually Drake’s Toronto address judging by the exterior of
the home and the smaller image that shows Drake’s home basketball court.
While this has been public knowledge for quite some time, the invasion of privacy apparently
didn’t come as much of a shock to Drake as he took to his Instagram stories seemingly
laughing off Ye’s latest move.
It’s still unclear when these two will drop their albums or if they actually are holding
off until the other one pulls the trigger, but as many fans know, this feud has been
ongoing now for quite some time.
Last year, Drake hinted that he slept with Kanye’s ex-wife Kim Kardashian on his Scary
Hours 2 EP on his song “Wants and Needs” when he raps, “Yeah, I probably should go
link with Yeezy / I need me some Jesus / But soon as I started confessin' my sins, he wouldn't
believe us.”
This rumor has been going around for years, when, back in 2018, Kim denied ever sleeping
with Drake when fans were suspicious that “Kiki” in his song “In My Feelings”
was in reference to Kim.
Kim herself denied the rumors at the time, with one simple IG comment captured by The
Shade Room that read, “Never happened.
End of story.”
The feud reportedly dates back to around 2010 just months after Kanye and Amber Rose split,
to which Drake was spotted with her almost immediately after.
His verse was then cut from Ye’s 2010 track “All Of The Lights” now featuring Rihanna
and Kid Cudi, but according to Drake, he was “completely okay” with the decision.
Since then, the two have taken shots at each other, but at one point in 2015, Kanye admitted
that a collab “might happen” during an appearance on New York radio show The Breakfast
Club.
While fans didn’t quite get the collab they had hoped, the major turning point in their
relationship occurred in 2018 when Drake thought Kanye told Pusha T about Drake’s secret
son, which was later revealed in Pusha’s diss track “The Story of Adidon.”
Kanye produced Pusha’s album, which is what ultimately led to Drake thinking Kanye had
spilled the beans, which was later denied by Pusha himself.
There is obviously SO much more to the feud, and it’s unclear whether Kanye and Drake
will ever be able to fully make amends…
So here’s to hoping that this is all just one major buildup leading to an EPIC collab…
but one can only hope.
