Drake just dropped a bombshell diss track aimed at Pusha T titled “Duppy Freestyle.” The OVO Sound boss shared it on his SoundCloud, Instagram and Twitter accounts on Friday afternoon (May 25).
The track comes only a few hours after Pusha’s “Infrared” was released on his new album DAYTONA, which was perceived to be shots aimed at the Toronto superstar and Cash Money CEO Bryan “Birdman” Williams.
“Your hooks did it/ The lyrics pennin’ equals to Trump’s winnin’/ The bigger question is how the Russians did it/ It was written like Nas but it came from Quentin,” Pusha spits on the cut.
In response, Drake begins his “Duppy Freestyle” with the words, “I’m in shock. The nerve. The audacity,” then proceeds to attack Pusha with line after line.
“Must’ve had your Infrared wrong, now your head on the beam/ Y’all are the spitting image of whatever jealousy breeds/ Don’t push me when I’m in album mode/ You are not even Top 5 as far as your label talent goes/ You send shots, well, I got to challenge those,” he raps.
Before the track comes to a close, Drake has mocked Pusha’s age, career, wealth and authenticity. He even name drops Pusha’s fiancée, Virginia Williams.
“I really shouldn’t have given you none of my time/ Cause you older than the nigga you running behind/ Look, holla at me when you multi-million/ I told you keep playing with my name and I’ma let it ring/ Like Virginia Williams.”
He then suggests this song will only help with DAYTONA‘s sales.
“I’m too resilient, get out your feelings/ It’s gonna be a cruel summer for you/ I told Weezy and Baby ‘I’ma done him for you’/ Tell Ye we gotta invoice coming to you/Considering we just sold another 20 for you.”
Pusha already responded on Twitter with a request.
“Send the invoice for the extra 20,” he wrote.
I swear to God Drake da GOAT!
You must Neva heard ether or takeover before, or even hit’em up. This shit soft as fuck
Ether- childish insults/gay slurs. Takeover- I make more money than you. Hit Em Up- fuck you, fuck you, fuck you. Yeah, I’ll take this over those any day.
Yeah I stand corrected. Beanie Sigel vs Jadakiss. This doesn’t even fuck with that. Lol
If we are over simplifying these tracks then this is “please stop picking on me, I don’t wanna hear the truth :'(” I take all the over this
That shit was weak, I dont co-sign.
Ovo sweatshop never sleeps*
R.I.P fake Pusher
hot lines , boring track
Meek laughing his ass out
This was impressive. I listened to Pusha’s first and it was a face frowner…but this response was impeccable.
Stop it
Wasnt Drake in Wyoming to work on Kanyes Album?? Fake Promo Beef of Fake People
Push has classics in a group and now might have one solo. What has drake done besides be the Nelly of this generation
Except Nelly lasted 2 sec and could never rap like this.
Until i see diamond album plaques in Drake’s catalogue I have to say Nelly is the better sing/rapper. No drake love song is better than Dilemma, no boasting song better than #1, no video better than Batter Up.. sure Drake can rap better but we don’t know how much he has actually written so I go with the guy we know for sure wrote his own stuff.
And every Drake album bar Views a classic.
People still talk about or play thank me later , take care , nothing was the same, iyrtitl? I listened to them when they dropped in high school but let’s be honest, it’s hot at the moment but they aged terribly
Whatever helps you sleep at night princess
Your fav rapper could never!
Y’all really love drake with this weak ass response. Y’all must of forgot what exodus 23:1 did to cash money young money . When Pusha T reply don’t cry and say not fair
Did what to Cash Money exxactly??? Stopped them from going #1 and getting platinum plaques??? Oh wait…..
Yeah tell Wayne drop an official album oh wait he can’t cause he needs his daddy permission to do so. How that law suit going? You took drake duck out your mouth to get online?
You are presumably a grown man posting on a site under the name silent fart criticizing another man. That is very suspect.
But ain’t u criticizing me though? Hmmmm. Go back downstairs and continue dry humping your Uncle
What a dunce
drake sounding like a psychiatrist on this . shit trash hes basically crying about pusha bullying him and telling him to stop
Fake Drake obviously had the sweatshop on red alert. Can’t call that bullshit a freestyle when you have to read it off your phone bitch.
Damn….drakes ghostwriters are fast as fuck. drake accussing someone of being fake is just too ironic…lol
Drake said he helped QM…smh…he was your writer. HE HELPED YOU!
Don’t let this weak ass response distract y’all from the fact Drake got peed on by Cap at T.I. house
Wow he took the bait… Now Push bout to let that chopper ring! Flow had no fervor and the beat was trash. First 2 tracks off Daytona > Drakes entire discog. RIP Canada.
U said this already stoopid
Listen liars and truth tellers, Drizzy da freaking goat.
The thing about drake is that he has alot of female fans and they dont care about music. Most of his fan base are hoes and teenage men that feel good listening to him because he gives all the cornballs hope that one day they can make it big. He is a former canadian mtv show actor:/. He uses ghost writers:/. He makes songs for whores at the club so i give him props for that…lol…as for as bars? NAH! He wack as fuuuuck.
I guess I’ll give it to Drake as having better bars, but Push has way better music. Drake is a sellout, he started his career doing shit with 9th Wonder and Elzhi, now he’s copying mumble rapper cadences, and in the years between then and now he made a bunch of trash bragging about his money with a few good songs here and there. Pusha has always kept it street, even if sometimes the songs are eh, but I heard the new album and there’s not a bad song on it, it’s just ridiculously short.
Copying cadences? My dude, Drake changed the way the industry raps for an entire year when he changes up his flow. People out here still rapping like 2014 drake.
Drake copying? Listen to “Gucci gang” and “Jump man” back to back – no pun intended. It’s the same flow. then listen to “Headlines” and Lil Uzi Vert or Post Malone. Then, “Worst Behavior” and every flow on the radio. Drake created this era. No one was singing like that before Drake entered the game. Kanye / Cudi may have assisted but the entire industry shifted to ambient beats and sing-songy hooks with Drake’s popularity.
Pimp C.
none of these dudes original they heard it before from real cats & repackage it to those ignorant of the history
Listened to Drake’s response. At this moment, Drake has the advantage. Let’s see how Pusha comes back….
And to think Drake in his Charge Up mode lol, what gon happen when he goes Bac to Back?
After this wack drake track i bet every hot ghostwriter in the country is sending their resume to OVO. Drake about to purchase some hot bars for his second response:)
Drake really sent that invoice lol
Under 24 hrs smh
you dont think he made that track before the album dropped??
Mean !!!
“You not even top 5 as far as your label talent goes”
A label with Designer, lmao
Frontin like that bullshit came off the top..knowing it came straight out the sweatshop.
Pusha needs you
Forward a resume.
Enough space in that burial ground, Meek low key happy he ain’t lying there alone
Drake tired of letting these leeches eat off his name
Nice to hear him actually rap. Good song. Pusha will crush him but because it’s Drake ppl gonna side with him a la Joe Budden. Meek lost the battle but won the war because he exposed Drake and now whenever he spits a good verse nobody believes him. Congrats to whoever wrote this song.
Drake bodied Pusha T on his album day
This cold AF lol
Now this is Hip Hop
straight
Drake destroyed this dude, he wanted the smoke he got the fire.
Lol Drake really sigh at the beginning of a diss record like, “Another minion I have to body”
Yikes!!!
Oh, I see…so Lebron aint the only one killin’ ni99as tonight…
Father had to stretch his hands out and get it from me. Im done Drake the goat.
Listened to this 10 times so far. It’s over for pusha. Next time he’ll think before he goes at the gods. Fake cocaine rapper.
Literally just deleted my Daytona album after hearing this
Drake snapped.
Damn… He did it again
I can’t rate this because I’m not convinced he wrote it.
didn’t like it….
If DRAKE uses ghostwriters, why did Kanye get him to write verses for him? I don’t get how a guy who “doesn’t write his own verses” gets writing credits on T.L.O.P.?
Drake murdered those chumps lol
DAMN…………….Drake is built for this rap beef (he is strategic and petty af)…….I was expecting Pusha to come harder at Drake on infrared. Those 1-2 lines were good but left me confused and expecting more, smdh………Pusha hold this L this round……Lets see how he responds in the next 24 hours….
Just came here to read the drake hate
This why i love hiphop. Artist collaborating through hate. Neither artist is my favourite but they both improve greatly when provoked. Turning their frustrations into music challenging themselves as artists should benefit the listener. Adored or critisized by the fans the passion is there. And passion comes from love. Done right you get blueprint and stillmatic, classics birthed from hatred and frustrations pushing the very boundries of entertainment. Done wrong and you end up with two great young men killed in the primes of there lives sparking conversations and warnings for generations to come. Then you remember your reading about a buncha rich fucks bitching about whos richer sizing eachothers dicks while you all gobble it up. -fart noise
Good battle. It’s a tie. Im not a big Drake fan but he ain’t no slouch. Rappers coming for Drake cause he’s got the top spot
Nah bro it’s not a tie… Drake gave him damn near 3minutes of work pusha gave him what? a bar or two… He needs to respond asap this shit outta control rn
As soon as drake said “the audacity” I knew it was over.
Bodied that man over a smooth saxophone…
Drake casually end rappers careers for real son
white Drake stans out in force lol
moresickaMC, Is it a coincidence that YOU on here sprinklin’ white salt then! Drizzy Bun fiyah to Pusha T ‘ead top! tun ‘im Rass to Duppy!!lol No holiday weekn 4 PUSHA T…. He gotta get to work on a reply before tha weekends thru SMH…. DEJA VU to when Meek started in on him and everyone thought he’d body Drake cuz he was a seasoned battle rapper….We all know how that turnt out! PUSHA’s a filthy lyricist, but can he drop sumthin in 72hrs that’ll make people react like how tha world reacting right now to Duppy Freestyle? Gotta Love HiP HoP!
Bitch please it’s fucking black people rocking with Drake, white people be bumping Elzhi, Black Thought, Skyzoo, Nickle 9 and shit.
Fuck outta here thinking black people support real mcs ???
yo…drake did his thing…. Again. I’m starting to think no one actually got smoke for the bull…fisherman be baiting then get pulled off the boat by a Marlin is how this looks right now to me LMAO
Never touch a Scorpion dam Pusha album out and you got stung on day 1! 6god Ethered this guy. Drake ain’t to play with he will end the entire industry career if he has too.
Drakes wack I’d body bag him and his entire label off the top, his ghostwriters too.
If you gonna accuse Da GOAT, least write something original lol
All this fake beef. Drake didn’t even respond to Joe Budden since he knew he would get bodied
Pusha L
If you gonna accuse Da Goat least write something original lol
Kanye better be careful. You do know what Drake does to people he doesn’t like… he smashes their wives/fiances. Just ask Diddy. Plus he doesn’t have to go far, he lives right next door lol.
I’m not gonna lie, that Pusha album was hard and he didnt even have to sing or make songs for the broads. With that said, dont know if Drake wrote this “freestyle” and I have a feeling Push dropped Infared as an appetizer and Drake jumped on it. Push probably got something else in the queue. And seriously Drake drops the same damn songs & concepts every album and yall eat it up like it’s something fresh & new.. smh, sheep
Pusha took 3 years to make a few boring songs he calls an “album”, We’ll be lucky to see a diss track this summer.
Pusha dont have to drop an album every year, he doesnt have a Ghost Writing team to support.. if u know u know
You missed the whole point bro. Google why the shit is called DAYTONA. If you know you know
In the end….all those albums are the same…. which one is the classic we will be talking about 20 years later? I’ll wait for your response………………
The battle is won before it is fought – pushas boss pays drake for bars – drake pays his bodyguard more money to hold weed than Pusha makes all year – and I’m a Pusha T fan I just question his authenticity at this point – real hustlers do not cap themselves the way he got himself over at good music – 10 years ago Pusha wouldn’t have to drop another mans name to sell albums – I miss the re up gang days
You are a babbling fool. Drake pays for his own bars. He doesn’t write them.
How do retards on here say Drake burried Pusha T, what did he say on this track that actually hurts Pusha T?
All bars on this track are pretty mediocre, you 12 year old white girls have never heard a proper diss track.
Agreed lmao shit was mediocre as fuck it was more of a rant than a rap so fucking what if he has more twitter followers and money than T guess who else he has more money and followers than? Raekwon NAS tech n9ne and quentin miller and they would body the shit outa drake just like pusha will
Well if you know Drake you know it’s a plan, Pusha can’t win this, this is Drake in that Charge Up mode and it’s dope AF! Pusha better have a perfect reply ASAP or boom! it’s over! He’s been Meek Milled.
How’s are you guys saying Drake has a etc etc. he doesn’t write his shit. If he died they would just give all those tracks to Niki Minaj’s transvestie ass. Then she wouldn’t be better than Push? Hahahaha. Clowns.
Weak bars!!! Its sad how low we have now set the bar… Coming from the 90’s era this drake reply is Luke warm… No vemon.. Shots like u r older than the ninja u r running behind..are weak as hell.. U ain’t even top5 at your lable..whack too. We all know not even drake is on pusha’s spitting level. Real talk. 1 line set off a whole song.. Shows how much drake was hurt.. Its a win for pusha though, free marketing n press for the new classic #Daytona
Ugh….boo…yay Drake can troll! Pero I have no reason to doubt that Pusha T wrote his lyrics. Drake….not so much. If you wanna have an actual battle it’s not possible for that reason alone. Stop giving this bs so much light
At least Drake is rapping instead of singing this well, this was well done and I’m not even a Drake fan
Whattttt!! No drake got murdered. Idiots at hhdx just show more and more that they don’t know hip hop
Shut up fuck boy
Not what your sister was telling me last night when she rode me and told me how much of a little bitch you are tell your sister to lay off the crack shes losing teeth its good for neck and everything but damn she looks weird when she smiles
Damn ???
Never forget Drake is the same dude who was rolling around in a wheelchair for a Disney TV show. Dude has always been and will always be as soft as baby shit.
Wait … what Disney channel did you have that aired Degrassi? Also, where is the correlation of being on a show = being soft? No need for a possible pending aggression rebuttal, I’m just trying to figure this out.
The fact you know what station the show aired on is funny. I just enjoy when Drake tries to be hard when he puts out diss tracks. You know Pusha T would open hand slap him and Drake would apologize.
drake and trump both got peed on tho
Dam Drakes group wrote him some heat. Pusha up against Drake and the Ghostwriting Justice League
Remember when folks claimed Drake was writing for Wayne when that whole Gillie Da Kid controversy was blowing over? Remember when Drake won Grammy’s for songs he wrote and helped write a la Alicia Keys? Remember the few verses from a few tracks he had received from Q. Miller was only on a mixtape? Remember going in on studio sessions and acquaintances suggested or even recorded suggestive rhyme patterns and words? … yeah, I guess I didn’t either.
I mean what else you supposed to say lol, since your fav rapper don’t have a chance standing against Drizzy.
Q Miller isn’t carrying himself Drizzy now? That actually makes sense.
Aint no wins and losses this year its VICTORY n DEFEAT, best believe sock puppet drake gon hold that D.
meek is somewhere having flashbacks from his PTSD
After RREEAALLLYYY listening to this and reading the lyrics…. this sounds like Jay-Z wrote this and sent the reference track. The cadence and lyric structure… yeah… this really does sounds like Jay-Z was behind this. And I’m quite sure that’s something nobody on either team wants to be revealed. HipHopDX yall should look into that tho fa’real.
Jay-z hates drake
There something more important going on here. This song is totally unremarkable, and yet so many websites are giving it positive reviews and editorials. There is no independent media. drakes people influence these sites.
If you think this trash is better than infrared you don’t know hiphop and you can’t think for yourself.
If you think Pusha T is real hiphop, you don’t know hiphop. He only made coke-dealing rap for wannabe gangsters in the early 2000s and he hasn’t changed at all since then. If Jay-Z ended up taking ‘Grindin’, Pusha T would be a nobody. If you were talking about someone like J.Cole, yeah something weird would be going on here.
Ain’t no way in the world you could take this song seriously knowing full well that Drake had huge corporations backing him in his beef with Meek. This has never EVER happened in the history of rap beefs/battles, so what is Drake really saying with that “freestyle?” All he’s doing is trying to fool his fanbase of kids and morons who want to believe anything he says and make himself look like the victim. Anybody falling for this is either naive or just plain dumb.
Like I said, Drake’s fanbase is full of kids and morons
I was hyped for this song because of all the buzz it has but I found it to be really mediocre. Push don’t even need to respond to this shit honestly. DAYTONA is a great project, dope bars, dope delivery, dope beats. This on the other hand was boring. And the beat sound like 80s porn music. foh.
Drake ethered Pusha T. Period. Hiphop ‘purists’ will have a hard time admitting that since they have been programmed to hate on Drake.
Drake definitely came with the heat. The first thing that comes to mind is how much his flow, cadence and punchlines sound like Phonte from little brother. I expect alot of back and forth from the two of them.
I wouldn’t call it “fire”. And it would be totally disrespectful to rap to compare this to “Ether”. It’s a solid comeback/response though. It establishes “I heard you and I’m willing and able to clap back”. Both songs are equally tight as far as slick lines. But I give a slight edge to Pusha because Duppy’s music is so “Miami Vice love scene/1985”. Just my opinion.
