- Kanye West claimed that their fallout was because the Canadian rapper signed to the devil and began going against God.
- Kanye said he lent his vocals to the song because he was “excited” about the “elimination” of Drake from the hip-hop industry.
Kanye West made some explosive statements about his feud with Drake, suggesting that the Canadian rapper’s success came at a spiritual cost.
According to Kanye West, Drake’s decision to “sign his soul to the devil” led to their fallout, as Drake began to work against the principles of God, which West claims to represent.
Kanye West’s comments came after he featured on the ‘Like That’ remix by Future and Metro Boomin, which he said he was drawn to because of the excitement surrounding Drake’s decline in the hip-hop scene. “It’s like he [Drake] signed his soul to the devil to not be cool with me. This is his job, to go against God.”
“Pluto [Future] called me, I went to the studio and laid that [my verse on the remix]. Everybody was very, very excited about the elimination of Drake. Not excited — we was energized” he said
West also claimed that Drake’s commercial success can be attributed to his “rich baby daddy,” Lucian Grainge, the CEO of Universal Music. According to West, Grainge’s influence played a significant role in Drake’s rise to fame.
“Drake has a rich baby daddy, named Lucian [Grainge] and Universal. He’s like, my daddy control the spins, my daddy got the DSPs,” West said.
In another story, Kanye West brags that he is better than Drake and Kendrick Lamar.
The controversy began when Kendrick Lamar took shots at both Drake and J.Cole in the track ‘Like That,’ produced by Future and Metro Boomin.
Kendrick Lamar boldly proclaimed his dominance in the rap game, suggesting he outshines the two popular artists.
Responding to the escalating tension, Kanye West didn’t hold back.
On Instagram, he reminded fans and critics alike of his prowess by pointing out specific instances where he believes he outperformed his peers.
Kanye West cited his collaboration with Kendrick Lamar on the track ‘No More Parties in LA,’ asserting that he “washed” Lamar in that song.
Additionally, he claimed to have proven his superiority over Drake during the Free Hoover Concert.
