Drake Reveals Why He Felt Tricked By Kanye West & Where Pusha T Crossed The Line

    Drake was the guest on Friday’s episode (October 12) of LeBron James’ HBO series The Shop where the two high profile celebrities chopped it up about their respective lives and careers.

    Things took a more serious tone when Pusha T’s diss track “The Story of Adidon” and Kanye West were introduced into the conversation. The 6 God explained he felt duped by Kanye after he was invited to Wyoming where the G.O.O.D. Music boss was working on the five albums he dropped over the summer.

    “He sold me on this whole speech, like, ‘I’m in a great place, I’m making money, I’m a father,” Drake said. “I wanna be Quincy Jones and help you, but in order to do that, you gotta be transparent with me and you gotta play me your music and tell me when you’re dropping, and I know you don’t like to do that.’ I was in the studio and I guess we all felt a genuine vibe from it.”

    Drake continued by admitting he had no intentions of working on Kanye’s ye album. He also confessed he knew the “deadbeat dad” diss was eventually going to come out. During those Wyoming recording sessions, Drake said he told ‘Ye about his newborn son and the “March 14” confessional from his Scorpion album.

    “He just told me he wanted to give me beats, he said he wasn’t dropping till October, November, something like that,” he explained. “I went and spent the majority of the time working on his music, trying to cook up ideas for him. We left with ‘Lift Yourself’ and a pat on the back …  I play him ‘March 14,’ I send him a picture of my son, I tell him I’m having trouble with my son’s mother. We had a conversation … I wake up, and all of these dates are out, one by one by one.”

    Finally, Drake tells James the one jab that really crossed the line on “The Story Of Adidon” was when Push brought OVO producer Noah 40 into it. The illustrious producer has been suffering from MS for years.

    “Rap purists and people who love confrontation, they love to say, ‘There’s no rules to this shit!’ There are fucking rules to this shit,” he said. “I’m gonna tell you something, I knew something was gonna come up about my kid. They had to add the deadbeat dad thing to make it more appealing, which is fine. The mom and dad thing … Whatever. You don’t even know my family.

    “But wishing death upon my friend who has MS … I study rap battles for a living. When you mention defenseless people who are sick in the hospital, who have passed away, I just believe that there’s a price you have to pay for that. It’s over! Someone’s gonna fucking punch you in the fucking face. The shit’s done, the event’s over.”

    1. Pusha and Kanye are 2 jealous individuals,use Drake name to sell albums but both of them albums flopped…….. Drake keep your head and keep putting up numbers on these haters

    2. Talking about someone defenseless friend or family member is like talking bout someone’s wife or girl very personal. Drake knew kanye close to pusha why give your business out there smh fuck Drake make America great

    3. drake is such a hypocrite, he dissed Kid Cudi when Cudder had mental issues, but when karma goes back to him he started crying like a little bitch

      1. Or how about cornball Drake just ignores them? Remember he said some shit like “diss me, you won’t hear a reply for it” and now, he’s responding to everybody that says his name like the emotional bitch he is. He should be like Jay where he ignores his haters and keeps it moving.

    4. I don’t care what so called purists say. Anyone who knows how dissect bars knows Duppy Freestyle was way better lyrically than Story of Addion. Story of Addion is the SuperUgly of the era. It had impact but the bars were trash

      1. Wrong sir. Hip-hop purista disregard Drake completely. He gets no ballots. He did not write that rhyme, nor any of his rhymes period. He writes the singing Mili Vanilli shit sometimes. Don’t speak up on a culture you’re obviously not a part of, poo butt. Rakim, BDK, Herc, they’ll say he loses by default. And they’re right…

      2. Both of them were wack because they were playing the dozens over a beat. Give me an actual song and weave that shit in. It’s why both are forgettable trash to go with the forgettable trash of this era. It’s why hip hop is so wack because fans accept this weak shit.

    5. So Push can’t diss his sick friend, but he can diss Cudi while he was in rehab? What a hypocrite this Canadian cornball is.

          1. It is an option you fucking moron. That’s why cognitive behavioral therapy is the way real psychologists that aren’t being paid to push pills treat it. Antidepressants fuck people up. I bet you’ve read a lot on this subject though/sarcasm.

            1. Antidepressants actually can work really well depending on the person. Should always be paired with therapy though.

      1. You miss the point. Drake dissed Cudi cuz Cudi started it. Being sick is one thing but if you call someone out you can’t expect heat. Cudi started the beef

    6. Look mental health is no joke. But comparing drake dissing cudi to Push making fun of 40 for having MS is apples to oranges.

      Plus Drake’s problem was with Cudi. Push probably has never even met 40.

      “But this is rap motherfucker! You go for the throat, nothing’s off limits.”
      Just thought I’d respond to my own comment for you guys to save you the time.

      Again, not defending Drake for going at Cudi. But believe me, you rather have depression than MS.

    7. “Someone’s going to punch you in the face.”, not Drake though. He’ll have his security do it, like a bitch. His AMERICAN security. What a pussy.

      1. I look at people’s comments sometimes and then I realize that, there are a lot of retarded people in the world, and you’re definitely 1 of them, or either you’re a fuckin little kid. Everyone is a gangster on the internet.

      1. Nah, fuck you and your Drake poster on your wall, to which you jerk yourself off every night. The fake-ass, weak-ass, ghostwriter-having, pornstar/stripper-impregnating, crybaby simpleton PRODUCT that is Drake deserves no respect. If he didn’t cater to whites and girls with his crybaby sensitive rhymes he wouldn’t be anywhere close to considered a good rapper. Push sells less records, which is natural since he’s not a milquetoast radio-friendly bitch. He can still shred Drake’s ass lyrically anyday, has the same lavish lifestyle and more money than he knows what to do with, without slaving to Baby.

    8. Aubreys sons name is the title of his own diss record. He will never forget as long as he is alive. “Duppy” on the other hand is word most people never use or even heard of unless your some “french canadian” r&b rapper

      1. The word Duppy is Caribbean slang. It means one of 2 things. 1) A spirit out for revenge ((which means he knows he got killed on Infrared)) or 2) A stupid person. I’ve lived in the Caribbean for 17 years. Dont argue with me.

    9. RIP Pimp C said it best all these fake beefs when they see each aint nothing going to happen its really a waste of public time

      1. Bingo. Why I don’t fuck with it and laugh when so called fans take sides in this shit like these your family members.

        How many people were riding hard for either side of Meek Mill and Drake or Meek Mill and Chris Brown? Now, you look like the dumbass while their beef that wasn’t ever about shit anyway is over and they’re promoting each others’ music.

    10. Whose really the chatty patty? Kanye for repeating what Drake said or Drake running his own mouth to Kanye about his fuck ups? If you don’t want nobody knowing shit about you then keep all that shit to yourself Drake.

    11. Pac talked about Prodigy and hi Sickle Cell…if he really studied rap beefs that ain’t hard to find ya know?? NO RULES!!!

    12. Aubrey sais ” Rap purest say there is no rule and there are fuckin rule” and ”I study Rap Battle for living….”. If thats true He then has not check Arsonal vs Shotty Horror (dead uncle), His Canadian fellow Pat stay vs Marv own (disabled brother), Dizaster vs DNA (disabled mother) …wait wasnt Aubrey actually there? Well… anyways… U make ur own judgment

    13. Drakes balling on a rapper who only talks about selling drugs by the boatload – but never hustled and is known as the nice guy – y’all can decide who’s real lol

    15. Drake is as soft as baby poop. He pulled this pansy move when he knew he couldn’t go against Pusha without being exposed. The boses upstairs wasn’t going to let that happen. Drake is a puppet, an actor, nothing real about him. He is not a competitor in this hiphop game. He is a pop star.

    16. Wow…. he really said “there are rules for this shit”, but those same rules didn’t apply when you talked about cudie mental illness or bringing Pusha’s fiance name up and countless other subliminal shots you took over the years at other rappers.. Man dafuckup dude,start by writing your own ???!!

    17. Ppl dont even kno what Duppy means. Its Caribbean slang. It means one of two things. Its either a spirit out for revenge, or a stupid person. Either way its not a good look for Drake. If its a spirit out for revenge, that basically means he KNEW Pusha killed him on ‘Infrared’. Otherwise he’s just a dumbass. Oh Yeah, Tunechi is also caribbean slang. It means Vagina lol

    18. Pusha has been that sour guy in the corner for too long man – I wonder if he switched up subject matter and flows and expanded as an artist things would be different. You can’t rap only about hustling and not be a hustler?? I know people that hate drake but still won’t give it up to push cause being salty and throwing stones is not the way of the hustler. @ what point do you give up on your career and devote it to ripping down another man? (Pusha w Daytona) what part of the game is that

    19. 2018 hip hop beef: twitter disses on fake or real accounts who do you trust??? Who puts out better music? Answer that

      1. Shit is sad. When I heard everyone flipping out over these beef songs, I was like they had some heat. Then, I heard both of them. Neither of them were actually rapping for one. Both were just talking over beats, and Pusha T was gossiping like a bitch about dude without cleverly putting it into song structure, which wasn’t surprising since he’s struggled making songs his whole career. Drake did the same thing. I was just shaking my head. Not to mention it was more fake beef about nothing. Beef is supposed to have people on edge that some leftfield shit off wax happen. It scares people when it goes there, but that’s what beef is supposed to be. At no point did anyone think this shit would go anywhere from either side when their corny asses were both in Hawaii and Wyoming together ghostwriting for Kanye a couple of months before like some fucking interns.
