A few feuds have captivated audiences quite like the ongoing saga between Kanye West, now known as Ye, and Drake. Despite a public reconciliation at a Larry Hoover event in 2021, tensions between the two rap titans seem to have reached a boiling point once again.
In a revealing interview set to premiere on Justin LaBoy’s The Download Podcast, Ye pulled back the curtain on his strained relationship with Drake. He suggested that despite their public appearances together, Drake continued to fuel their beef, hinting at a deeper conspiracy at play.
Ye's allegations didn't stop there. He painted a picture of Drake signing a metaphorical pact against him, likening it to "signing his soul to the devil." According to Ye, this allegiance extends to Universal Music Group CEO Lucian Grainge, insinuating that their conflict is orchestrated by higher powers within the music industry.
The interview didn't just focus on their feud; Ye also shed light on his involvement in Metro Boomin's "We Don’t Trust You" albums. He revealed a conversation with Future, discussing what he described as the "elimination" of Drake from the rap game. Despite their past collaborations, Ye expressed enthusiasm for sidelining Drake in the industry.
A snippet from the interview showcased Ye's verse on the "Like That" diss track aimed at Drake and J. Cole, emphasizing the intensity of their rivalry. Despite Ye's provocations, Drake has remained silent on the matter, leaving fans eagerly awaiting his response.
Their rivalry came to a head in 2021 during the release of Drake's "Certified Lover Boy" and Ye's "Donda" albums. Ye aimed to assert his dominance by dropping his album simultaneously with Drake's. However, Drake's album outsold Ye's, solidifying his status as the more commercially successful artist.
As the feud between Ye and Drake continues to unfold, fans are left wondering if there will ever be a resolution. For now, all eyes are on the next move in this ongoing saga of hip-hop's most notorious rivalry.
