Lil Wayne Proudly Rocks XO Chain Amidst Drake And The Weeknd Beef

by

Lil Wayne has had beef before. The rapper went as JAY-Z multiple times in the 00s. He also squabbled with Pusha T and the rest of the Star Trak crew around the same time. In recent years, though, Weezy F. Baby has preferred to keep the peace. He’s cool with everybody not named Birdman. This approach has been most evident in 2024, when his protege Drake went to war with the rest of the superstars in the rap game. Lil Wayne has maintained support for Drake without getting too involved. The rapper’s recent style move, however, has some fans scratching their head.

Lil Wayne appeared in the music video for Jon Baptiste’s “Uneasy.” The rapper can be shirt playing the guitar while rocking multiple chains. Nothing too out of the ordinary, as Rebirth fans know. The Weeknd recently posted a screenshot from the 2023 music video, though, and highlighted a crucial detail. Weezy is rocking an XO chain in the video, which is in reference to The Weeknd’s label of the same name. The rapper is showing love to the XO crew, even though they’ve been embroiled in a beef with Drake for the better part of a year.

Lil Wayne Was Recently Accused Of Dissing Drake

Some fans have noted that the video dropped last August, but the decision to rock XO was still a bold one a year ago. Lil Wayne knows the situation between Drake and The Weeknd. The Canadian stars have been sniping at each other for the better part of a decade. Drake and The Weeknd even fired shots at each other on the songs “Family Matters” and “All to Myself,” respectively. What makes the situation even stranger is that Lil Wayne himself was accused of dissing Drake on a new Cordae song.

Wayne dropped a stellar guest verse on Cordae’s “Saturday Mornings.” The Young Money boss throws a few digs at a rapper, and calls them “sweet” like a Teddy Graham. Fans immediately seized on these bars and tied them back to Drake. It isn’t hard to see why. Drake’s surname is Graham, and if there’s a rapper who has been called “sweet” more often than the 6 God, we haven’t heard of him. The diss theory went away pretty quickly, but Lil Wayne did not clarify who he was talking about on the song. Is there Young Money beef brewing? Or do you think Weezy is simply showing love to another Canadian?

Charlamagne Tha God Claims Drake’s 100 GB Drop Is Part Of An Album Rollout

by

Drake is doing the most right now. The rapper revealed a second Instagram account with memes aimed at other rappers. He also dropped a staggering 100 GB’s of new and unreleased material. Fans are still sifting through it all, but Charlamagne Tha God sees the bigger picture. At least, he claims to see it. The radio personality hopped on The Breakfast Club on Wednesday and theorized that Drake’s drop is much more calculated than it seems. He also claimed that the new material is in service of an upcoming album.

Charlamagne tha God felt that Drake failed to play to his strengths by staging a seemingly “organic” drop. Given what the radio host, and the public writ large, knows about Drizzy, everything he does is planned out. “That’s the issue, right. Drake just doing stuff,” Charlamagne Tha God explained. “There’s no direction to it. He’s trying to make it look organic, like it’s nothing, like it’s effortless.” Especially, in Charlamagne’s opinion, when the endgame is so apparent. He feels like Drake is trying to gage public interest in him after the disastrous Kendrick Lamar battle. “This is clearly a rollout,” the host explained. “He’s putting his toe in the water. He wants to see how people feel about him.”

Charlamagne Tha God Thinks Drake Is Gaging Fan Interest

Charlamagne tha God has a point when it comes to Drake “just doing stuff.” The Toronto rapper has been teasing lots of different projects throughout July. So many, in fact, it’s hard to keep track. He has unreleased songs with Conductor Williams in the stash. He has the trio of songs he just dropped with Young Thug, Latto, and 21 Savage. Drizzy also has a joint album with PARTYNEXTDOOR set for release in the fall. Not enough? How about a rumored European tour that riffs on Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” diss. In his 100 GB drop, the 6 God posted merch emblazoned with the title “No One Likes Us 2024.”

Charlamagne tha God assured Drake that the fans will be receptive. “Drake, you’re fine,” he stated on the air. “Today, you are you.” This is not the first time the radio host had kind words for Drizzy. Despite labeling him the loser of the Kendrick Lamar battle, Charlamagne though Drake did a great job. “This, to me, has been the best rap battle I’ve ever witnessed,” he said back in May. “I mean, the two best of their generation, in their prime. I’ve never seen a rap battle give us this much music.” Time will tell if the rollout prediction proves true.

Drake Reconnecting With PartyNextDoor Is The Perfect Next Move

by

For the first time in his career, Drake is the underdog. Okay, that’s a bit dramatic, but a comeback of sorts is certainly expected from the Toronto rap star. That, or proof of resilience — evidence that his defeat by Kendrick Lamar won’t be marked as a major turning point in his career. Admittedly, we’ve already seen this resilience from Drake.

His 2018 beef with Pusha T ended with a semi-low-blow knockout punch in the unveiling of Drake’s son Adonis, but in the end, Drake went on to put out his biggest hits and run the summer as he’s done many times this year. But this time, Kendrick Lamar beat Drake at the game he hoped to play, and now the Compton rapper owns the summer thanks to “Not Like Us.” That leaves the fall and winter months up for the taking, and in extremely smart fashion, Drake is gearing up to take them over.

Over the weekend, Drake announced that a joint album with PartyNextDoor will arrive this fall, and it’s the perfect next move for him in his career. “I know you girls are outside,” Drake quipped during a guest set at PND’s Sorry I’m Outside Tour stop in their hometown of Toronto. “When it gets a little chilly, a PartyNextDoor and Drake album will be right there for you.”

Mr. OVO himself has a long track record of big moments in the year’s colder months, though it wasn’t until last year’s For All The Dogs that he actually released an album in October. His breakout mixtape Comeback Season was released in September, as was arguably his best album Nothing Was the Same as well as What A Time To Be Alive and Certified Lover Boy. The Grammy-winning Take Care saw the light of day in November, as did Her Loss, while other highlights like So Far Gone and If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late debuted in February.

In addition to the argument that Drake’s best work arrives outside of the summer months, there’s also one for PartyNextDoor being one of — if not the — best collaborator Drake has consistently worked with in his career. Drake and PND have created over 20 songs together, including collaborations like “Recognize” and “Loyal,” songwriting contributions for each other’s songs, like PND’s “Not Nice” and Drake’s “Come Thru,” and work on other artists’ songs like Rihanna’s “Work” and Popcaan’s “Twist & Turn.”

Drake — music’s versatile superstar — and PND — a modern-day R&B wizard with an unmatched pen — are the perfect combination for a collaborative album. Fans often request joint albums from artists after two or three decent collaborations, all for the finished product to fall flat and underwhelming when it comes to fruition. Drake and PND, have already proven to be a match made in heaven that will only be solidified with this upcoming release.

With all this being said, what makes Drake and PND’s upcoming joint album the perfect move for Drake? Well, for the first time in a long time, Drake can be the cohesive tunnel-visioned artist he hasn’t been in nearly a decade. The beauty of albums like Take Care, Nothing Was the Same, Views, and If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late is they each exist in one individual world. You read their titles and can feel the texture and atmosphere they exist in, whereas with other projects, it’s a bit more scattered and all over the place.

PND thrives at this cohesion, as his most recent album PartyNextDoor 4 proves. He also subscribes to a simpler and more focused approach to his projects, which Drake can also benefit from. Furthermore, Drake and PND’s joint album marks the return of a beloved duo after both reached heights fans previously thought they could only dream of. It makes use of nostalgia, thanks to a decade-long catalog of collaborations, and fulfills a longtime request. For once, Drake is actually listening to us.

Drake will never take a break from music, he’s told us that plenty of times over the last few years. So fans who have begged him to step out of the spotlight will just have to suck it up and deal with the ever-present rap star. There is a compromise here, though. In the aftermath of the infamous rap beef, Drake is seemingly stepping out of the character that played the role of Kendrick’s fuming and disgruntled opponent, and replacing him, is one who wants to prove that good music can erase the bad times, or blur them at least. Drake’s recent release of “100 gigs” of unreleased material included plenty of evidence to show how calculated he is as a musician.

Announcing a joint album with a longtime friend and beloved collaborator is another example of that, and it’s one that could benefit everyone involved, from Drake and PND themselves to waiting fans, as well — if they deliver and meet the expectations laid before them.

Drake Might’ve Fired Back At A$AP Rocky On Recently Released “It’s Up”

by

Drake seems to have to the last word (at least for now) in one of his many ongoing beefs. According to XXL, some bars on “It’s Up”, one of three songs released to The Boy’s finsta page and 100gigs.org, appear to be for A$AP Rocky. In the short closing verse, it reads something like this, “Knockin’ off the namebrand n****s in your crew / Heard you miss your dogs, now it’s long live who? Idiot“. Breaking it down, Drake targets the lesser-known members of the A$AP Mob and then ties that into the de facto leader’s 2013 project LONG.LIVE.A$AP.

We can certainly see this being a shot because Rocky was suspected to be subliminally firing away at Drizzy on his recent single “HIGHJACK”. “These n****s want my wife bad, the people want my next track/N****s swear they pimpin’, Scottie sippin’, get your wife back“. Obviously, this all ties into Drake’s past infatuation of Rocky’s now wife and mother to his two children, Rihanna. His constant clap backs at the Canadian enemy can certainly be looked at as warranted, though. Drake very possibly dissed the R&B queen last year on For All The Dogs.

Rocky made sure to remind his former collaborator on Future and Metro Boomin’s “Show of Hands” just how bad he messed up. “Call up Pluto, Metro, should’ve put me on the first one / N****s swear they b**** the baddest, I just bagged the worst one / N****s in they feelings over women, what, you hurt or somethin’? / I smash before you birthed, son, Flacko hit it first, son“. With Drake currently the most recent one to diss, we are sure Rocky will do some more chirping when he drops DON’T BE DUMB on August 30.

What are your thoughts on Drake potentially clapping back at A$AP Rocky on his new song “It’s Up”? Is this your favorite track from the “100gigs for your headtop” release?

Drake Reveals Inspiration Behind “Hotline Bling” But Fans Had Someone Else In Mind

by

Over the last 12 hours or so, Drake has stirred up a lot of conversation. Late last night, the Canadian rapper put “100gigs for your headtop”, a massive folder of old files, as well as three new tracks. “It’s Up”, “Blue Green Red”, and “Houskeeping Knows” are the titles, and they include features from 21 Savage, Young Thug, and even Latto. As far as the past folders go, they include alternate covers for past projects, studio clips, and more. Overall, the internet has been mixed on this as you would come to expect with Drake at this point. Currently, one of the “archaic” documents that is causing some debate is a video of The Boy explaining how “Hotline Bling” came to be.

“We used to be in bed together — we just finished f***ing and her phone would be blowing up,” Drake began. “So, I saved her name in my phone as ‘Hotline Bling.’ That’s always been her name on my phone”. He also joked that it was such a good name that he felt it could have been his new stage moniker. “And I was looking at it today, I was like, ‘Hotline Bling’ is a sick name. That should be an artist name”. Additionally, he even talked to the still unknown fling about her nickname being used as the title for now one of his biggest songs. “Yo your name, your nickname is such a good title for something.’ And then I just told her today, I was like, you know I did a song called ‘Hotline Bling,’ thats crazy”.

Fans Want Drake To Give DRAM His Due For “Hotline Bling”

However, some people are thinking that someone else should be credited for the song. Back in 2015, DRAM put out “Cha Cha”, a track that was released a few months prior to “Hotline Bling”. The track would go on to be his breakout record and he felt there was some obvious similarities; so much so, that he felt Drake “jacked” it. DRAM made his feelings known that same year in an interview with Billboard. He moved on, but some fans still aren’t letting Drizzy off the hook. “DRAM was the “inspiration”, one user on X writes. “Drake stay lying”, another adds. Others were defending Drake, saying that the songs didn’t sound remotely close.

What are your thoughts on Drake’s inspiration for “Hotline Bling”? Do you think DRAM needs credit for this song’s creation, why or why not? Where do you rank this song in terms of Drizzy’s biggest hits? How do you feel about him releasing all of these files the night prior? We would like to hear what you have to say, so leave your thoughts in the comments. Additionally, always keep it locked in with HNHH for all of the latest news surrounding Drake and DRAM.

Drake Seemingly Teases “No One Likes Us” European Tour In 2024

by

Drake really took fans on a trip down memory lane on Tuesday. The rapper dropped off 100 GB’s of old music, rehearsal footage, and documentary footage dating back a decade. It was an unexpected surprise that will likely generate some goodwill for Drizzy in the days to come. The most exciting piece of the drop though, was the implication that the rapper might be going on tour before the year is up. One of the pics on the 100 GB’s drop was of merchandise boxes with the text “Euro 2024” on them. The text above is a nod to Kendrick Lamar’s diss song, “Not Like Us.”

Drake is keenly aware of the importance of a narrative. The rapper built his career on crafting a persona, and now that Kendrick Lamar has effectively beaten him, a rebrand is necessary. The fact that the Euro tour (that may or may not being happening) is branded “No One Likes Us” is Drake attempting to wrestle back the narrative. This isn’t the first time the rapper has made reference to the K. Dot single. He posted a video of a Drake impersonator and quoted the lyrics: “Sometimes you gotta pop out.” Another piece of evidence to support the Euro tour theory is that Drake has a lot of new music in the works.

Drake Flipped The Title Of K. Dot’s “Not Like Us” Diss

The rapper is reportedly working around the clock on new music. He’s got an album’s worth of songs with Conductor Williams, according to Ebro In the Morning. He also confirmed that he has a joint album with PARTYNEXTDOOR in the works. Drizzy announced the long-anticipated collab during a PND show, and assured fans that they will get to hear it before the end of the year. “Do what you need to do. I know all you girls are outside and when it gets a little chilly,” he told the fans. “A PARTYNEXTDOOR and Drake album will be right there for you…”

PARTYNEXTDOOR bolstered the joint album hype when he revealed that there will be 15 tracks on the final version. The fact that Drake is so eager to get out new music aligns with the desire to go out on tour. The rapper famously assured fans that he will never go long without putting on shows for them. Plus, he’s got a rebrand in mind, and a rollout that with some intentionality behind it. We don’t know what Drake has in store, but we’re excited to find out.

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.”

Drake Flooded The Internet With New Material And Fans Are Overwhelmed

by

It’s to maintain attention in the social media age. Musicians can labor over an album for months, only to have it disappear from public discussion within 24 hours. Drake is one of the few who doesn’t have that problem. All eyes are on him when he drops, and boy did he drop on August 6. The rapper decided to let loose with 100 GBs of previously unreleased material. A few new songs, but mostly unreleased footage and behind-the-scenes material from throughout his career. It’s a treasure trove. It’s also a lot. We all want to see what Drake puts out, but this is next level in terms of quantity.

Most of the initial reactions stemmed from the new songs that Drake released. He dropped collabs with the likes of 21 Savage, Young Thug, and Latto, and fans liked them. The song “It’s Up,” which includes 21 and Thugger, got most of the attention for containing possible Kendrick Lamar disses. Beyond the songs, though, the sentiment was that Drizzy simply dropped too much. Fans didn’t have the patience to watch hours of music video outtakes and studio sessions. “I’m not going through 100 GBs of anyone’s content,” one user tweeted. “Y’all let me know if any of that new Drake hits.”

Fans Made Fun Of Drake’s “100 Gigs” Branding

Another running joke was that 100 GBs of Drake material means there’s very little of value. “100gb of unreleased Drake music means there’s like 4 good songs in there,” a user tweeted, which neatly sums up that corner of the fandom. Others felt like the Toronto rapper was very clearly trying to shift the narrative about him over the last few months. His approval rating has never been lower, and dropping material that evokes his peak is a way of obscuring that. “100 gigs sh*t I think proves to me that Drake can’t handle being talked about in negatives manners like this,” a savvy user tweeted out.

The most prominent joke among fans, though, was something Drake did not plan on. The title “100 Gigs” was noted for its sinister implications. Usually, when a celebrity makes headlines for having 100 GBs of material, it’s because the material is illicit or perhaps even illegal. Not a great parallel to draw, based on some of the accusations that have been leveled at Drake. Keep scrolling to read more social media reactions to the delay. Are you going to sift through all the new material? Do you think Drake has new music incoming? Let us know in the comments, and check back later for more music/pop culture news updates.

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”

Drake Reposts A Tweet Ruthlessly Clowning J Cole On His Finsta Account

by

Drake is continuing to run the internet. The rapper may have been taking L’s for the better part of the year, but he’s striking back. Not in a way any of us expected, either. Instead of dissing his ops direct, he has decided to release material that makes them look bad. Cue the footage of Drake effectively making Kanye West’s “Yikes” from scratch. The 6 God also took time to repost an old tweet that belittle J Cole. Drake and Cole’s relationship is tenuous at best, these days, and the former decided to have fun at the expense of his “First Person Shooter” partner.

The tweet was reposted on Drake’s new Finsta account plottttwistttttt. It was originally posted in 2019, and mocks J Cole’s relationship with his former Roc Nation boss, JAY-Z. “Remember when J Cole got his phone stolen out of pocket by a fan,” the user wrote. “They called JAY-Z from it but he wasn’t answering so they called from their own phone and he picked up.” Brutal. Drake knew exactly what he was doing by reposting this tweet. J Cole made it clear from the moment that he signed to Roc Nation that he wanted to harbor a close bond with JAY-Z. He saw himself as another Kanye-esque protege. Needless to say, it didn’t work out that way. Cole and JAY were never especially close, and the former found more success on his own.

Drake Mocks J Cole’s Weak Relationship With JAY-Z

Drake, on the other hand, has harbored a much closer bond with JAY-Z over the years. The latter has featured on four of the Toronto rapper’s albums. By comparison, he appeared on only one song for J Cole, despite the fact that Cole was signed to his label. Drake and JAY-Z have had their struggles on occasion, but it’s clear both men have respect for one another. It’s a much cleaner relationship than either man has with Kanye West, but that’s a different story. By resharing an old story in which JAY-Z ignored a call, Drake is casting doubt on how much respect Cole really gets in the industry. Especially among the acknowledged greats.

J Cole has already had it rough since the release of “First Person Shooter.” The rapper tried to fight back against Kendrick Lamar, then apologized and became a punchline. His bizarre verse on the Cash Cobain song “Grippy” didn’t help. Drake took a pretty big loss courtesy of Lamar’s “Not Like Us,” but at least he can say he didn’t back down. The Toronto rapper stayed in the ring, and earned the respect of icons like Rakim, LL Cool J and Ice Cube in the process.
