Drizzy Drake brought all the smoke to Pusha T and Kanye West, getting out a clapback to Pusha’s recently released diss track in record time and also issuing a six-figure invoice to the duo for “promotional assistance” and “career reviving.”
Pusha, whose West-produced Daytona dropped on Friday and included the Drake diss track “Infrared,” continues his long-simmering beef with the Toronto rapper and his labelmates Lil Wayne and Baby.
On “Infrared,” Pusha raps that Drake “could [n]ever right these wrongs” when he “doesn’t even write [his] songs.”
In “Duppy Freestyle” (for those who don’t know, a “duppy” is a ghost in Jamaican patois, which speaks to Pusha’s accusations that Drake uses ghostwriters for his music), Drake seemingly responds to Pusha verse for verse and maybe even slips in a slick nod to being with his woman.
Pusha goes into specifics on “Infrared,” saying that Drake used a ghostwriter named Quentin in a track coming for Meek Mill (on Drake’s “R.I.C.O.”), which Drake doesn’t deny but qualifies:
Pusha T on “Infrared”:It was written like Nas but it came from QuentinAt the mercy of a game where the codes is missing
Drake on “Duppy”:And as for Q, man I changed his life a couple timesNigga was at Kroger working double timeY’all acting like he made the boy when I was trying to help the guyYeah, who gassed you to play with me?Man, you made this shit easy as ABCsWhoever supposedly making me hits, but then got no hits sound like they need meMy hooks did it, my lyrics did it, my spirit did it
Then King Push claims that the only rapper who has sold more drugs than he has is Eazy-E (is this still a thing to brag about?) and that Drake doesn’t write his own rhymes:
Pusha T:The only rapper sold more dope than me was Eazy-EHow could you ever right these wrongsWhen you don’t even write your songsBut let us all play alongWe all know what niggas for real been waiting on
To which the OVO rapper replies that T’s drug exploits are largely fiction:
Drake:Your brother said, it was your cousin then him, then youSo, you don’t rap what you did, you just rap what you knewDon’t be ashamed, it’s plenty niggas that do what you doThere’s no malice in your heart, you’re an approachable dudeMan, you might’ve sold the college kids for Nikes and MercedesBut, you act like you sold drugs for Escobar in the ‘80s
Drake also comes for Kanye West in the track, first saying this:
Drizzy:What do you really think of the nigga that’s making your beats?I’ve done things for him I thought that he never would needFather had to stretch his hands out and get it from meI pop style for 30 hours, then let him repeat
And then insinuating that West held back one of his former colleagues (Virgil Abloh, now the head designer for Louis Vuitton menswear) over jealousy:
Drake:You not even top 5 as far as your label talent goesYou send shots, well, I got to challenge thoseBut I bring Calicos to the AlamoI could never have a Virgil in my circle and hold him back ‘cause he makes me nervous
But the best part is when Drake says he’s going to invoice Kanye West for the track, since his even mentioning it will assuredly give it more heat.
Drake:I told Weezy and Baby “I’ma done him for you”Tell ’Ye we got a invoice coming to youConsidering that we just sold another 20 for you
And Pusha asks for the invoice via Twitter.
Which Drake provides via Instagram with the words, “For professional services rendered re: promotional assistance and career reviving.”
The internets seem to be leaning toward Drake as the champ of this round, but bets are it’s going to be a cruel summer for hip-hop.
