Drake Gets Spicy On IG Amid Beef With Kendrick Lamar 

Drake

On Thursday, <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/drake-invites-rick-ross-ex-to-concert-after-being-unfollowed-amid-future">Drake</a>'s latest Instagram post caught a lot of attention. The post suggests that the Canadian rapper is ready to engage in hip-hop beef with other artists. The caption reads, "They would rather go to war with me than admit that they are their own worst enemy."
https://www.instagram.com/p/C5C9YaUunXk/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
Drake is currently feuding with several big hip-hop stars, including Future, Metro Boomin, Rick Ross, and Kendrick Lamar. Over the weekend, Future and Metro Boomin released an album called <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/future-and-metro-boomin-announces-2-joint-albums-with-trailer">We Don&rsquo;t Trust You</a>, featuring a track called "<a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/kendrick-lamar-drake-j-cole-the-road-to-like-that-and-whats-next">Like That</a>" with Kendrick Lamar. In his verse, Kendrick challenges Drake and J. Cole for supremacy and disregards the Big 3.&nbsp;
Fans speculate that Future and Drake have beef over a woman they both dated. Future references this in his new album on songs like &ldquo;We Don&rsquo;t Trust You&rdquo; and &ldquo;Type Shit.&rdquo; On Wednesday, March 27, the woman in question <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/drake-and-future-beef-reportedly-caused-by-a-woman-she-speaks-out">addressed</a> the rumors to set the record straight.
One of the comments in Drake&rsquo;s new Instagram post is from Rick Ross's ex-fianc&eacute;, Lira Galore, who simply writes "Step" with a fire emoji. Superstar beef in hip hop has divided heavyweights among respective artists. Nav and Rick Ross are among those to publicly unfollow Drake following the release of We Don&rsquo;t Trust You album.
Rick Ross and Kanye West promoted Kendrick Lamar's music this week. Ross replayed Kendrick's verse on "Like That" in his Instagram Story, while Kanye promoted their 2016 collaboration "<a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/ye-promotes-kendrick-lamar-amid-drake-j-cole-kendrick-lamar-beef">No More Parties In LA</a>."
Drake responded to the current feud during his concert in Miami on Sunday (March 24). &ldquo;I got my head up high, my back straight, I&rsquo;m ten f**king toes down,&rdquo; he said to the crowd. &ldquo;And I know no matter what there&rsquo;s not another n**** on this Earth that could ever f*ck with me.&rdquo;

Kanye&hellip; Excuse me, I apologize, <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/kanye-west-and-his-team-feels-public-doesnt-respect-name-change-his-name-is">Ye</a> appears to have chosen a side in the feud between <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/kendrick-lamar-drake-j-cole-the-road-to-like-that-and-whats-next">Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and J.

Ye and Drake have been feuding for years, while J. Cole's beef with Ye is less known. Fans speculate Ye&rsquo;s post of the Kendrick Lamar-featured song indicates an alliance with the Pulitzer Prize-winning artist. Kendrick made the feud between himself, Drake, and J. Cole public over the weekend on the new song &ldquo;Like That&rdquo; from Future and Metro Boomin&rsquo;s new album, We Don&rsquo;t Trust You.
Ye made an explicit since-deleted post on social media that mentioned Drake a couple of weeks ago following Vultures Vol.1 song, &ldquo;Carnival,&rdquo; reaching #1 on Billboard, his first in over a decade. &ldquo;F*ck Drake,&rdquo; wrote Ye as he addressed Addidas and others.&nbsp;
During his tour stop in Miami on Sunday, Drake <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/drake-seemingly-responds-to-kendrick-lamar-diss">addressed</a> the recent feuds. He tells the crowd, &ldquo;I got my head up high, my back straight, I&rsquo;m ten f**king toes down&hellip; and I know no matter what there&rsquo;s not another n**** on this Earth that could ever f*ck with me.&rdquo;
Others to choose sides in hip hop civil war include Nav,&nbsp;<a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/drake-invites-rick-ross-ex-to-concert-after-being-unfollowed-amid-future">Rick Ross</a>, <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/travis-scott-hints-new-music-coming-i-gotta-kick-into-a-new-gear-they-think">Travis Scott</a>, and more.

<a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/drake-seemingly-responds-to-kendrick-lamar-diss">Drake</a> lost some collaborators due to a <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/kendrick-lamar-drake-j-cole-the-road-to-like-that-and-whats-next">beef</a> with Future, Metro Boomin, and Kendrick Lamar. Rick Ross unfollowed him, so Drake invited Ross's ex-girlfriend, Cristina Mackey, to his concert in response.
https://www.instagram.com/p/C4lRwPfRFFq/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==
Mackey shared a series of Instagram Stories that included her attending Drake&rsquo;s Biggest The What concert in Miami by special invite. One of the stories showed a signature OVO envelope with Mackey&rsquo;s name addressed. Many speculate the invite is the initial reason for Ross unfollowing Drake.&nbsp;
https://www.instagram.com/p/C4_-swpMwNB/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link
Ross and Mackey broke up earlier this month. Mackey surprised her followers on live by revealing that she wrote an R&amp;B song about the rapper she recently broke up with. Mackey showcased her great voice by previewing the song.
Ross has been sharing motivational messages on social media while spotted with a new beau following the breakup. Ross and Drake had issues in the past during Drake and Meek Mill&rsquo;s feud.
Drake&rsquo;s beef with Future and Metro Boomin became high-profile over the weekend after the duo released their anticipated joint album, We Don&rsquo;t Trust You. Future <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/drake-and-future-beef-reportedly-caused-by-a-woman-she-speaks-out">subliminally rapped</a> about issues with Drake on album cuts &ldquo;We Don&rsquo;t Trust You,&rdquo; &ldquo;Like That,&rdquo; and &ldquo;Type Shit.&rdquo;
After the album&rsquo;s release, Metro Boomin shared a tweet on X that reads: &ldquo;Pick a side and stay on it.&rdquo;

Camila Cabello gushed over a recent island getaway with <a href="https://www.hot97.com/hot-news/drake-teases-4batz-act-iii-date-8-remix">Drake</a> in an interview with the Call Her Daddy podcast. The former Fifth Harmony singer reveals that the pair met up in Turks and Caicos after she DM'ed him for his input on her soon-to-be-released album.&nbsp;
The singer described the trip as a "vacation plus some work" and later professed her love for the Toronto rapper. "I love that man. I love him...," she said. "We all love him."
"We hung out, I played him my album, he loved it &mdash; and I thought that he would, and I was, like, so excited," Cabello said later in the conversation. "It was also just such a surreal moment also for me to, like, play Drake my songs. &hellip; It's a dream."
The singer also hinted that a collaboration between the two was in the works.&nbsp;

4Batz has become the most talked about new artist of 2024 so far. Kanye West mentioned the <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/roc-nations-reuben-vincent-shares-grandmothers-house-was-shot-up-while-on">Dallas</a> native as his favorite new artist. Timbaland wants to work with him and put Drake onto the R&amp;B artist&rsquo;s music, which led to the two bonding.&nbsp;
&ldquo;Think y&rsquo;all got one with this one. Yo, his tone is crazy,&rdquo; said Timbaland about 4Batz on Instagram. &ldquo;I&rsquo;m telling you now, [when] The Boy get on this, it&rsquo;s outta here. It&rsquo;s already outta here. This thing right here. And y&rsquo;all know who The Boy is.&rdquo;
4Batz&rsquo;s three acts have accumulated over 10 million streams on Spotify. The artist&rsquo;s newfound success based on three <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/russ-jim-jones-dababy-g-herbo-offset-saweetie-more-new-music-you-might-have">songs</a> has been suggested as an &ldquo;Industry Plant&rdquo; by social media.

Kevin Durant

<a href="https://www.hot97.com/hot-news/kevin-durant-responds-to-retirement-rumors">Kevin Durant</a>'s skills don't stop at the basketball court, apparently he has quite the ear for music. So much so, that Drake brought him on as an A&amp;R for his eighth album, For All The Dogs. Recenlty, the NBA legend opened up about why he chose to get involved with the project.&nbsp;
While attending a media day session ahead of the 2024 NBA All-Star Weekend (which takes place in Indianapolis, Indiana, this year), Durant noted that the pair are pretty close. He said not only do the two speak often, but he also lends advice to the Canadian rap star. It's clear that because Durant is such a close confidant of Drake's, it makes sense why he would grace him with the title of A&amp;R.
"Whenever Drake just wants to talk about life I'm there for him and he just gave me that title," Durant told the reporters.&nbsp;

Kanye West

After <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/drake-trends-after-alleged-explicit-tape-leaks-social-media-goes-crazy">Drake</a> made headlines this week with an alleged leak of X-rated video, singer Aubrey O'Day claims to know that Kanye West is well-endowed in a new interview with No Jumper.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
Instantly going viral, the Danity Kane singer surprisingly shared the information while talking about sex with No Jumper host and founder Adam22.
&nbsp;
&ldquo;Kanye&rsquo;s dick is [big] like that,&rdquo; she said as her eyes widen. &ldquo;Allegedly. I did not [fuck Kanye]. He does [have a large dick]. That&rsquo;s fact. Factually. He doesn&rsquo;t talk about it because he doesn&rsquo;t need to. He lives big dick energy. Have you not paid attention? That thing dangles past the knee soft. It&rsquo;s huge. I didn&rsquo;t have sex with him, but it&rsquo;s huge.&rdquo;
&nbsp;
<a href="https://www.instagram.com/reel/C3GhwOWvFJV/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==">https://www.instagram.com/reel/C3GhwOWvFJV/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&amp;igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==</a>
&nbsp;
No Jumper host Adam 22 previously mentioned that Drake nudes existed and saw them in September 2023. Drake would embrace the news with a reaction that included multiple laughing emojis.&nbsp;
Kanye West is currently in album mode after hosting a listening event in Chicago on Thursday evening (Feb. 8) with Ty Dolla $ign at the United Center in support of their new joint album, Vultures Vol.1. The new album features Lil Durk, Quavo, Chris Brown, Charlie Wilson, Freddie Gibbs, Travis Scott, Playboi Carti, and Kanye's daughter North West.
In the two-hour interview, O&rsquo;Day would discuss Diddy abuse, having an affair with former President Donald Trump&rsquo;s son Donald Trump Jr., and launching her Onlyfans account. Outside of Kanye, the most shocking revelation she made during the interview was sex with Trump Jr. at an LGBTQ party in New York Summer of 2023. She had discussed this before on The Mea Culpa podcast with Michael Cohen, she said:&nbsp;
&ldquo;This is one of the biggest gay parties in New York, and everyone is in a G-string or less. I was just in my soul. There is no way that the man I&rsquo;ve seen suited up for the past couple of months is going to show up here to see me in this lovely land I get to be in, and he did.&rdquo;
Then, she recalls taking a look at Trump Jr.&rsquo;s Instagram account years later.&nbsp;
She continued: &ldquo;I looked at his Instagram for the first time in years the other night and saw all kinds of jokes belittling the gay community [and] transgender women. And I thought to myself, &lsquo;Man, you were super comfortable in the gay club.&rsquo; In fact, so comfortable that we ended up going to the bathroom and for the first time had sex in a gay club bathroom.&rdquo;

It seems like St. Louis rap star <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/sexyy-red-recalls-how-painful-hiding-her-pregnancy-while-on-tour-w-drake-was">Sexyy Red</a> is taking <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/nicki-minaj-spazzes-out-on-roc-nation-for-supporting-megan-thee-stallions">Nicki Minaj</a>'s side in the ongoing feud with Megan Thee Stallion. On Tuesday morning (January 31), she shared a video on her Instagram Story in which she can be seen dancing with Minaj's "BigFoot" attached to a reel.
&nbsp;

&nbsp;
Set to delete in 24 hours, Sexyy Red shared an eight-second reel by Instagram user o7cumms showing her twerking and chickenhead-ing on stage. Nicki Minaj&rsquo;s &ldquo;Big Foot&rdquo; is attached to the video and could be perceived as Sexyy Redd siding with the Barbz in Hip-Hop&rsquo;s biggest beef at the moment.&nbsp;
Sexyy Red and Nicki Minaj previously collaborated on the remix of Redd&rsquo;s breakout hit, &ldquo;Pound Town.&rdquo; In November, it was reported that Nicki provided Sexyy Redd with unreleased tracks that no longer suited her. Since the collaboration, the two have been spotted together multiple times on social media.&nbsp;

Sexyy Redd has not commented on the current beef between Nicki Minaj and Megan Thee Stallion or the two individually at press time. Sexy Red toured with <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/drake-on-young-thug-mariah-the-scientist-jail-call-video-let-him-come-home">Drake</a>, another one of the artists Megan Thee Stallion took a shot at on her new single &ldquo;<a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/kris-jenner-reacts-to-megan-thee-stallion-name-dropping-her-in-new-single">HISS</a>,&rdquo; in 2023 as the opening act for his It&rsquo;s All A Blur Tour with <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/21-savage-seemingly-tattooed-lattos-name-behind-his-ear">21 Savage</a>.&nbsp;
Sexyy Red released her anticipated EP, Hood Hottest Princess, in June 2023 on Gamma. The project includes hit songs &ldquo;Female Gucci Mane,&rdquo; &ldquo;Pound Town 2,&rdquo; and &ldquo;SkeeYee.&rdquo; A deluxe version was released in December 2023 and features Juicy J, Nicki Minaj, Chief Keef, G Herbo, and 42 Dugg.

On Monday (Jan. 29), Yasiin hosted an Instagram Live to address his comments on <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/drake-addresses-yasiin-bey-yg-and-saweetie-call-it-quits-or-wrap-up-week-of">Drake</a>, and their conflict. While sharing he is entitled to his opinion, he clarified calling Drake a pop artist and reached out to him directly to talk about the situation.
Beginning at the 3:56 mark, Yasiin Bey said: &ldquo;Drake, if you&rsquo;d like to speak to me directly, you can at any point,&rdquo; Yasiin said. &ldquo;I reached out to [Dave] Chappelle, actually reached out to you. I DM&rsquo;d you. You are a very talented MC, but for me, I require more of myself and others than just talent or charm or charisma &mdash; particularly in times of urgent crisis. And what I would like to see in terms of creators or creative people in the world, as it relates to our culture, is for people to connect with us beyond the jukebox or the dance floor.&rdquo;
Drake has not responded to the new live session at press time but initially replied to Yasiin Bey with a clip of an old <a href="https://hot97.com/hot-news/drake-seemingly-responds-to-yasiin-bey-saying-he-makes-pop-music">Method Man</a> interview where he defined hip-hop culture.&nbsp;
Ebro in the Morning chimed in on the Mos Def and Drake situation after the show on Tuesday (Jan. 30). Check out the complete breakdown below.&nbsp;

Yasiin Bey (Mos Def) Clarifies Drake Comments But Wants More Substance From Him

Nicki Minaj

Nicki Minaj And Megan Thee Stallion's rumored beef has boiled over after the Houston rapper dropped her latest track, "HISS."&nbsp;
On Friday, Janurary 27, Megan The Stallion dropped her latest track, "HISS," which will be on her upcoming album. Following its release, the track sent social media into disarray. Several lyrics in the song seemingly took shots at several artists &mdash; among them were allegedly Drake and Nicki Minaj.&nbsp;
"These n*ggas hate on BBLs and be walkin' 'round with the same scars (Ah)/Real curvy, no edgin', n*ggas fight to get in my section (My section)," the Houston hottie rapped. Fans speculated that this could've been a shot at Drake.&nbsp;
However, the main event came when she dropped a verse mentioning "Megan's Law," a federal law created in 1994 that requires law enforcement authorities to make information regarding registered sex offenders available to the public. Some fans speculated that this could be a shot aimed at Minaj's husband, Kenneth Petty. Decades ago, Petty was accused and found guilty of first-degree rape.&nbsp;
As expected, Nicki Minaj galvanized her fanbase &mdash; the Barbz&mdash; as she went on an X (formerly known as Twitter) rampage. "If your last 5-10 releases flopped&hellip;If The internet checks don't clear outside in real life. If all the paid blogs &amp; paid tweets = flop after flop after FLOP album," she wrote.
"Did y'all run up that 'Barbie World' song they tried?" she tweeted. "It's bubbling under this week. Video &amp; all and didn't crack the HOT 100. It's a BUB. They losing so much money with BF&hellip; ain't generate not one penny of a profit yet &amp; claim she went to college but can't read her contract &hellip;? Another manipulation so she can kick ppl to the curb after they helped her."
But it didn't end there. Nicki also took her rant to other social media platforms like Instagram.

When Omondi asked for clarification, he continued: &ldquo;In the sense of if I was in Target in Houston and I heard a Drake song. So it feels like a lot of his music is compatible with &lsquo;shopping&rsquo; &ndash; or, you know, it&rsquo;s shopping with an edge.&rdquo;
