With the arrival of Kanye West’s new solo album, Ye, the internet has been hard at work furiously trying to decipher the “meaning” behind Yeezy’s bars.
Fans are convinced the Slick Rick-sampling “No Mistakes” is a shot at Drake. Coupled with the feature from Kid Cudi, who Drake dissed on”Two Birds, One Stone,” it seems Yeezy had his sights firmly set on the Toronto rap star when he wrote the track.
The line “Let me make this clear, so all y’all see/I don’t take advice from people less successful than me, huh?” is supposedly a barb about ‘Ye being wealthier than Drake, while the last line, “Too rich to fight you/Calm down, you light skin!,” is a stab at Drizzy’s bi-racial background.
Fans are also speculating that the Charlie Wilson-assisted hook, “Make no mistake/Girls still love you,” is clowning Drake’s rap career.
“No Mistakes” comes after the 6 God threw a jab at ‘Ye on “Duppy Freestyle,” which was a response to Pusha T’s “Infrared.” The DAYTONA cut took aim at the OVO Sound boss and Cash Money CEO Bryan “Birdman” Williams.
After Pusha’s returned with the scathing Drake diss track, “The Story Of Adidon,” the dust has seemingly settled between the two artists (for now).

There is no “S” at the end of girl…He said “make no mistake girl, [I] still love you.”
Thank you haha. To add to that, on ‘No Mistakes’, it definitely sounds like he’s speaking to Drake, but it’s a stretch to call it a diss. Just listen to the lyrics and take it for what it is. As far as the ‘less successful’ line, there’s absolutely no basis to say that that’s about Drake. I’m so sick of this website man, but here I am commenting, so whatever.
What a reach, twitter is cancer
Kanye has some of the BEST STRUGGLE BARS ever……….Like he is so overrated and not even a real rapper to be taken serious…….People give him to much credit, lol…..
Yeah. Those 10+ Grammys are ridiculous… You are way more recognized as the withe guy who says nuggga thatbwoeks at the AMC theater shoveling popcorn for a living…
I like Kanye’s music for the most part. The only thing I can’t stand are his stans that act like Kanye is this ultimate genius and nobody has ever thought the way Kanye does and Kanye thinks on another level. When half the time Kanye says the same shit people have been saying for years, the other half his logical is about as deep as a 15 year old
Ahm, Amber Rose is light skinned too!
She is more white than black. If she would say that she is black all the time nobody would notice. She is basically the female Version of Logic.
Yeah. (((Light Skin))), that is. Merchant of Toronto.
“Yeezy had his sights firmly set on the Toronto rap star when he wrote the track.” You sure he wrote it. LMFAO I guarantee Kudi wrote it. Also how is light skin an insult, Kanye?? You light skin like your kids??
Kanye called someone light skinned. He didn’t say it was an insult. You racist. I’ve been dealing with the same issues for being cis gender…
Lol..too rich to fight blackfaced lightskin
*blackfaced jevv from Toronto
Beef aside for a minute, does this mean Nas’ new album is only gonna have 7 tracks too? If the album turns out to be under 30 minutes I’m a be a little upset. Anyways that very well could be a shot at Drake but I’m absolutely certain Drake will consider it a diss so it doesn’t really matter. Supposedly Drake’s getting ready to respond finally but he’s taken longer than it took Push to respond to him and I highly doubt Drake’s got heavier ammunition than what Push dropped on him.
All drake has to do is offer ‘ye something he wants and drake will have more control over GOOD than push – I know pusha is in his feelings right now about ye not going in at drake – pusha is LOYAL to YE and it is not reciprocated – this is business – modern day warfare – real hustler sh!t – drake might have oliver cut a deal with the bank that mortgages pushas primary residence – drake about to have pusha out on the street – the problem is pushas money tree is deteriorating with YE at the helm – how do you sell records when your boss drops a week after you? less bread and more beef can be treacherous for terry…forget a cruel summer this can be a cruel decade for the stone thrower
Nothing you said makes sense. When Push signed as a solo artist Kanye bent over backwards to sign him. Push was in a very popular group called Clipse before he went solo, Kanye was a fan and actually did a feature for Clipse on their last album. That was about a year before Push signed to GOOD. Then shortly after Ye made him president of the fucking company. Ye isn’t gonna sell out someone he trusts and respects as much as Pusha for a light-skinned Canadian artist that don’t even write his own bars and is already signed to the most exploitive label in the industry. Push runs GOOD, he makes Kanye money. Ye isn’t gonna turn his back on that.
Diss or no diss, this „album“ is trash.
Everything is a drake diss these days
