Drake And Metro Boomin Will Attend 21 Savage Birthday Party Despite Beef

by

To say Drake and Metro Boomin aren’t cool is an understatement. The rapper and producer who once made hits together are on opposite sides of the culture war. Metro Boomin declared war on Drizzy with “Like That” and “BBL Drizzy.” Drake memed him into oblivion by telling him to shut and make drums. It went back and forth for months. Now that the dust has settled, though, the enemies will be attending the same birthday party. Drake and Metro Boomin will both be showing up to support 21 Savage.

21 Savage announced his birthday party plans on social media. He posted a graphic with information about the party, which will focus on 2008-2013 era music. The event will take place on October 19, and Drake decided to poke fun at his longtime friend in the comment section. “So specific,” he wrote. “Can we get reference pics?” 21 Savage got back at him and wrote: “Coming soon twin.” Metro Boomin has been 21 Savage’s day one producer, so he will obviously be in attendance. The fact that Drake and the producer will be in the same space for the first time since the beef is interesting, given the comments both of them have recently made.

Metro Boomin Claimed He Still Has Love For Drake

Metro Boomin turned lots of heads when he was asked about the beef during the Forbes 30 Under 30 Summit. He claimed that he “has love” for every artist involved in the conflict, Drake included. “I have love and respect for all my collaborators,” he claimed. “I just want to see everybody do their best and continue to help push this forward.” Metro Boomin also dismissed the toxic side of the beef by blaming fans. “It’s more like Stan culture,” the producer added. “It makes it kind of weird.”

Drake, on the other hand, publicly spoke about betrayal during a recent appearance in Toronto. The 6 God took the stage at a music event and warned attendees to be aware of who their real friends are. “You’re going to come to a point in life where people you thought were friends,” he asserted. “Or people you thought were close to you, switch up. They might stab you in the back. They might do a lot of things to you.” Drake obviously considers 21 Savage a real friend, and Metro a fake one. The party should be an interesting one. Hopefully the DJ avoids playing any disses.

21 Savage’s Manager Denies Rumor That He Dissed Kendrick Lamar On “It’s Up”

by

21 Savage has done a good job of staying out of the Drake vs. Kendrick Lamar battle. He has ties with both Drizzy and Metro Boomin, yet he somehow managed to maintain both. A lot of 21’s success likely stemmed from the fact that he didn’t record any disses. Or so we thought. Drake spammed the internet on August 6, dropping 100 GB’s worth of unreleased material. One notable release “It’s Up,” a song in which 21 Savage takes shots at an unnamed rapper. Fans theorized that 21 was going after Kendrick Lamar, but the rapper’s manager quickly shut this narrative down.

DJ Akademiks was the one who broke the news. It’s Drake-related, so you know it had to come through Ak at some point. The streamer claimed that he got in touch with 21 Savage’s manager, who definitely stated that the rapper was not dissing K. Dot. “21 is not dissing Kendrick,” Akademiks asserted. The DJ even pulled up the lyrics in question to set the record straight. At a glance, it’s easy to see why fans felt 21 Savage was target Lamar. There’s reference to a rapper thinking he’s Tupac, which is something that Lamar’s detractors have cited in the past. There’s also reference to a rapper who feels bigger than he is after he scores a few hits. Lamar just landed two number one singles with his Drake disses, “Like That” and “Not Like Us.”

21 Savage Targeted A Rapper Who “Think He Pac Now”

“No rap cap come out my mouth. Made a couple songs, think he hot now,” 21 Savage raps. “Hit his a*s up, he think he Pac now. Broad day, like he got shot down.” DJ Akademiks proceeded to read the lyrics, then share a text from 21’s manager, Meezy. According to Meezy, the bars were intended for someone else. “That definitely ain’t no shot at Kendrick,” the manager reportedly texted. Ak then chimed in and noted that the diss wouldn’t make sense because Lamar has multiple hits.

21 Savage and Kendrick Lamar have collaborated in the past, but the former has made it clear that he rocks with Drake. 21 and Drizzy have multiple hits and a joint album together. The fact that 21 Savage was on one of the few new Drake songs speaks to how close they are. 21 has even voiced a desire for Drizzy and Metro Boomin to work out their differences in the future. “Metro my brother and Drake my brother,” he said back in May. “Them n**gas gonna figure that sh*t out eventually.”

Did Drake Diss Kendrick Lamar On ‘It’s Up’ With Young Thug & 21 Savage?

by

Today (August 6), Drake surprised supporters with a bevy of unreleased music by way of his 100 Gigs drop. In the collection of material, the “First Person Shooter” rapper shared three never heard before tracks.

After thumbing through the records, fans believe Drake is back to his sneak dissing ways. To be more specific, people feel that Drake had a few more jabs to send Kendrick Lamar’s way with the backing of 21 Savage. Continue below for more details.

Did Drake Diss Kendrick Lamar On ‘It’s Up’ With Young Thug & 21 Savage?

On the record “It’s Up,” Drake and 21 Savage are seemingly reigniting the Kendrick Lamar feud. Upon first listen, the song appears to be a generic jab at his haters but the lyrics hint at one in particular.

21 savage vowed to remain neutral on Drake’s feud with Metro Boomin. But, that isn’t the case with Kendrick as he rapped: “Made a couple songs, think he hot now / Hit his ass up, he think he Pac now.”

Although 21 Savage didn’t explicitly name-drop Kendrick, the bars are self-explanatory, especially coupled with the line: “I move to L.A., I’m a Clipper.”

Drake ended out the track with a few shots of his own toward Kendrick’s former TDE family, rapping: “Ayy, I’m feelin’ like 2 Chainz / B*tch, I’m 21, b*tch, I’m not 22 / Knockin’ off the namebrand n****s in your crew / Heard you miss your dogs, now it’s long live who? / Idiot”

Listen to Drake’s song “It’s Up” featuring Young Thug and 21 Savage above.

If you thought the outcome of Drake’s rap battle with Kendrick Lamar would push him into a cave, you were quite mistaken. Since the rapid beef calmed down, Drake has featured beside Camila Cabello and Gordo on new songs, and now, he’s back again with music of his own. In posts made to his now-revealed finsta (Fake Instagram) account, thanks to him reposting it on his main verified Instagram account, Drake unveiled three new songs as a part of 100 gigabytes of unreleased content that he shared with fans.

The three songs are “It’s Up” featuring Young Thug and 21 Savage, “Housekeeping Knows” featuring Latto, and “Blue Green Red.” “It’s Up” lands as bass-knocking track with verses from Young Thug and 21 Savage while “Housekeeping Knows” pairs Drake with Latto for a “sweet,” “uplifting,” and “inspiring” New Orleans-bounce track that concludes with a verse from the Atlanta rapper. Finally there’s “Blue Green Red,” a tropical, dancehall-inspired track that will probably do well in the remaining weeks of summer.

As if the three new songs weren’t enough, the folder of unreleased content also includes behind-the-scenes videos and other unreleased content from over the years in Drake careers. This includes BTS footage of Drake’s “Nonstop,” “Jumbotron Sh*t Poppin,” “Sticky,” “Hotline Bling,” and “What’s Next” music videos, among others. There’s also an original version of “U With Me,” videos from his 2023 show at New York’s Apollo Theatre, more BTS content from tours like 2012’s Club Paradise Tour and 2013’s Would You Like a Tour?, as well as videos of Drake recording music in the studio.

Honestly, there’s so much content in here, it’ll take a day or seven to decipher what it is and what Drake era it’s from. We’ll leave that task up to you all if you so choose to take it on.

Latto Teases Album Title & Brings Out 21 Savage, Usher, & More Guests At Hot 107.9 Birthday Bash

by

Latto recently made Atlanta’s HOT 107.9 radio station history by becoming the first female artist to headline their Birthday Bash festival in the city. Moreover, she treated fans to a pretty energetic, star-studded, and monumental show that teased the title of her upcoming new album as Sugar Honey Iced Tea. The ATL femcee brought out her rumored boo 21 Savage, Usher, Summer Walker, Anycia, and Rasheeda as special guests for the performance as well, making sure that folks had new things to look forward to every few songs. It all seemed like a lot of fun, and like she’s almost ready to take things to the next level with her soon-to-come LP.

Furthermore, this Birthday Bash performance also prompted some interesting theories and possible updates on the whole Ice Spice beef. For those unaware, Latto seemed to directly diss Spice by referencing her “Think U The S**t (Fart)” song in a tweet, following months of tension and back-and-forths. In addition, this HOT 107.9 performance’s tease of a potential new album title with Sugar Honey Iced Tea also adds to this theory and saga. After all, spell out the acronym behind that possible album title, and you’ve got a whole lot of shade over the Bronx femcee’s earlier 2024 single.

Meanwhile, Latto is also making headlines thanks to Azealia Banks’ viral thoughts on her. “She is really missing out on so much iconicness by not being ‘mulatto,’” Banks suggested on Twitter. “2nd off, for all that social backlash and for people to be dumb enough not to realize her name is still Mulatto but abbreviated should prove that they stupid internet anger addicts. Who are not as socially insightful as they think they are and made all that ruckus just to get hoodwinked. PLUS IS HER CALLING HERSELF MULATTO AT ALL EVEN SLIGHTLY AS DENIGRATING And DETRIMENTAL AS BLACK ARTISTS CALLING THEMSELVES AND THEIR PEERS N*****S ALL DAY?????????????????”

Regardless of what wild takes there are concerning Latto online, she continues to impress, apply pressure, and build a lot of support and anticipation for her next big move. Hopefully it comes sooner rather than later. It’s been a long journey up to this point and we haven’t gotten a full-length release in a while. So we’ll see what guests pop up, what the final title will be, and what she will lyrically and commercially stun with.

Metro Boomin Teases “Savage Mode III” Despite 21 Savage Tensions

by

Metro Boomin has lots of friends in the industry. The producer has ascended up the food chain in the 2020s, and become one of the most popular collaborators in hip-hop. His solo albums are a who’s who when it comes to modern day superstars. Drake is the big exception to this rule. Metro declared war on the 6 God with “Like That,” and well, the rest is history. It’s hard to imagine Metro and Drake ever being cool again. The relationship that fans are worried about is between Metro and 21 Savage. Let Metro tell it, though, and things are good as ever.

Metro Boomin hopped on X (formerly Twitter) on June 5 to tease new music. He’s already confirmed that he has tracks cooking with The Weeknd and JID, but he teased the anticipated, hallowed Savage Mode III instead. The producer posted a video of an unreleased instrumental, and X user Crew Shiesty retweeted it. “I ain’t gonna hold you,” he wrote. “This sounds like Savage Mode III.” There hasn’t been confirmation from Metro or 21, but the internet did what the internet does and ran with it. DJ Akademiks reposted the X exchange on Instagram, furthering adding to the hype.

If this snippet is in fact from Savage Mode III, than Metro Boomin and 21 Savage have managed to dodge a bullet. The two artists came down on different sides of the Drake beef, with Metro being against and 21 trying to stand with both sides. The rapper even got on Instagram Live to assure fans that everything will eventually smooth over. “Don’t keep coming on my motherf*ckin’ Live talkin’ about motherf*ckin’ beef,” he told fans. “Metro my brother and Drake my brother. They gonna figure that sh*t out eventually.”

21 Savage and Metro Boomin got into a heated exchange during another Instagram Live. The latter went in the comment section and dubbed 21 “OVO Savage,” which led the rapper to kick him out. Savage then used the infamous Drake insult from “Push Ups,” and told Metro to shut his h*e a*s up and “make some drums.” This is the exchange that led fans to question whether the tension from the Drake situation had boiled over into their friendship. Hopefully the Savage Mode III rumors are true, and we get this dynamic duo back together.
