Drake has some jokes after Ebro Darden spoke about him on his show recently – and Ebro is dishing the shade right back.
During an episode of Ebro In The Morning on Hot 97 earlier this week, Ebro referred to Drizzy as a “sickness” in the game as he was discussing Kendrick Lamar‘s beef with him.
“Drake is not that important. The reason Drake’s in this is because he is a sickness in the game,” he said. “It could have been any artist, but it’s what Drake represents. People love Drake – they love his music, we love his music. He’s beloved. He’s not willing to go rip his soul from the bottom and do ayahuasca and look himself in the mirror as Kendrick had prescribed to him. It’s about what the game does to artists who try to dominate it.”
After catching wind of the comments, Drake hit back on his Finsta with a Photoshopped picture of Ebro over a bowl of ayahuasca – which is a drink made from stems and leaves that contains DMT and is used as an aide in spiritual journeys.
But to Ebro, the fact Drake even replied is telling.
“I’ll say this,” he said in response during the latest episode of his morning show. “If Drake is now mentioning me at this point in his career – which he’s never mentioned me before or even been on our program or anything like that. And he’s at this point where he’s mentioning me, where he’s already mentioned Charlamagne and Joe Budden and so many other points – he’s at a low.”
This is certainly not the first time Ebro has been critical of Drake.
Back in 2023, the radio personality jabbed Drizzy for shading Childish Gambino’s “This Is America” as part of his It’s All A Blur Tour stage setup, claiming the 6 God hasn’t shown up to speak out on Black issues throughout his career.
“Drake, who has never shown up, and y’all know I’m the biggest Drake fan on this show,” Ebro said. “Drake has never shown up to have anything to say about anything going on in society with Black folks or anything other than himself.
“So now you have an issue — I get you have an issue with Childish Gambino if what you’re saying is face — but fam, the song was supposed to be a joke diss, it didn’t actually happen. So why you in your feelings?”
He later added more context while talking to some of his listeners on X.
“Drake doesn’t have to,” he clarified. “Nor should he if he doesn’t feel it. But to say ‘This is America’ is overrated and over awarded when that song came at a time when people needed someone to say something. And he doesn’t feel the need to. That’s all.”
Responding to one user who agreed with his take, Ebro added: “I was responding to Drake saying ‘This is America’ is overrated and over-awarded. That song made people feel something at an important moment. And to slam that song when you never say anything is wack to me.”
In another post, Ebro wrote: “Watch the full clip on Youtube… Drake doesn’t have to say shit. But if we talking about ‘This is America’ then he rarely says anything significant about social issues and Gambino did.”
Drake did not comment on the convo at the time.
Ebro works at Apple which is pro-Trump and he’s very anti Trump why won’t he stand on business also leave X and Meta platforms. Not to mention he glazed Drake like crazy on Hot97 he shouldn’t be talking and he creeped on Tinashe back in the day too also made girls kiss on radio like Erica Mena. Drake is a sickness but so are you you’re all in the same boat! CTG too let’s not forget him Budden and Akademiks all worked for Diddy.
Drake and Diddy are gay and so are you.
All these hypocrite over sensitive millennial gen x boomers are just out of hand. Charlamange is a weirdo who bleached his skin, likes getting his salad tossed openly admitting it to Kevin Gates, and he’s not from NYC he pretends to act tough but ran for his life when confronted. Ebro is the first person I’ve heard use ageism as a term because he doesn’t like the younger generation and they don’t like him so as usual these people have to come up with new terms to make them the victims and make it seem they’re always right not to mention he’s a super leftist but like all the others he’s still working for Trumpanies and using their platforms Apple, Google, Microsoft, X, Meta, TikTok just thinks he knows everything but is always wrong and can’t stand on values. Budden is the same calling people sensitive but is super sensitive himself with his washed up podcast he’s still mad at Earl over a skit from Loiter Squad. Eminem is the same another hypocrite just like all these people. Then throw Drake into that mix along with all of them. Just a bunch of whinny fake people all in the same age group with similar political beliefs and industry ties with no values. Someone tell Trump offer Diddy a plea deal for footage of all them at the freak off.
Never heard of the term ageism? Tell us you never filled out a job application without telling us you never filled out a job application…😂
I like people say places like meta, google, old twitter are now right wing. Absolute nonsense. Apparently you did not pay any attention during the 2016 and 2020 election runs.
Forget Drake’s garbage listen to EmeryReigns song didn’t know he could sing better than drake way better
So Ebro is dissing Drake by saying he shouldn’t be mentioned by Drake because he’s too small time. Hip hop culture has devolved into pure clout chasing. This ”culture“ talk is bullsh!t.
Especially when these dudes talking the most about the culture are the ones who sold it out in the early 2000s. Drake just came and did better what they were trying to do. Like none of these rappers have stood for shit real since forever, and it was by design when the majors bought all the independent labels out.
Greg you’re so fucking gay. Look in a mirror, yeah, that’s what a f@gg0t looks like
Lol even ebro knows he’s a scumbag shocked drake responded to him . Dirty Arab vulture
L – Lame trying too hard.
Ebro is not Arab. He and Aubrey are both half-White and grew up in the suburbs.
Starting shit with Ebro is the bottom of the barrel.
Posting a picture or meme is not “firing back”. What a reach with that title.
all you f8ggots got owned by Drake and PND. Every song classic. Cocksuckers lose. Bunch of worthless jealous rap f8ggots. Can’t hear you got Drake pumping too loud. FUCK YOU LOSERS🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
ebro says he is a sickness but also says ppl love him……..?? Or is that from a rappers perspective how many say the same thing
