The ongoing beef between Pusha T and Drake has been one of the most notable in recent memory. Both sides traded lethal shots at each other and it doesn’t look like there’s going to be any reconciliation between both camps. Pusha’s good friend and longtime collaborator, Pharrell Williams, gave his thoughts on the beef saying it broke his heart during his visit to Drink Champs on Friday (December 18).
“I hate to see what [Pusha] and Drake are going through, or what they went through,” Pharrell told N.O.R.E. and DJ EFN at around the 1:11:29 mark. “I hated all of it. Every bit of it. It wasn’t good.”

Pharrell went on to say Pusha didn’t tell him about his plan of dissecting Drake and his personal life the way he did on the scathing diss track “The Story of Adidon.”
“He knows I would’ve stood in front of him as much as I could, but he’s a different kind of person, he’s a Taurus,” the legendary producer explained. “When you feel like a line is crossed and you take off the gloves, that’s where your brain is at.”

Because the Toronto rapper is a Scorpio and he never forgets, Pharrell said the combination of Drake and Pusha’s personalities was a toxic mix. It didn’t help that both rappers are extremely loyal to their loved ones either.
“It still breaks my heart to this day, because I would’ve loved to have heard those guys on a song together or heard a joint project together. I would’ve loved to twist that,” Pharrell continued. “By the way, Pusha says Drake’s got bars. When Drake makes something that’s amazing, we talk about it all the time.”
When N.O.R.E. asked Pharrell whether his relationship with Drake is fractured because he’s close with Pusha, the Virginia native shot down those claims. He said the 6 God has nothing but nice things to say to him during their private conversations and in public to the media.
“Neither one of them are into problems,” he explained. “They don’t like it and it’s unnecessary but they’re both people when they feel like they’re being pushed to the limit they gotta do what they gotta do,” Pharrell said.
Pharrell’s creative collective, i am OTHER, recently teamed up with Soundcloud to release i am OTHER, Volume 2, a special project that highlights a select group of up-and-coming rappers on the streaming platform. The artists used the project to speak up about injustices in the world.

N.O.R.E. said this guy is a major pillow biter
Dude is so sensitive
Shut up. Pusha is a g drake is a fraud
oh jeez. Please shut up Pharrell. More and more as time goes on , folks are forgetting the essence of hip hop in its absolute truest form : COMPETITION. Verbal warfare was ingrained into hip hop from its very inception. Now sensitive clowns like Pharrell are trying to remove it from the culture.
Facts it’s always been competitive. It’s when fools start getting guns involved is when it’s bad for Hip-Hop.
What are you talking about? Pharrell knows beef. This beef between drake and push is because of pharrell. It’s the beef between the Neptune’s and cash money which bled into push and Lil Wayne beef which led to push against drake.
Pharrell probably just doenst like that it’s still ongoing and gotten so personal while he has moved on.
It’s a fair opinion even though most of us enjoy the beef.
I thought no one especially Pharell realised this was a Clipse Lil Wayne situation that is unresolved n spilled over. As someone says hes doing a Puff daddy type of thing
Everybody from Snoop, Pharrell and Puffy getting too sensitive tryna be accepted by the new generation of pussies, saying sorry for other peooles actions and backtracking on even their previous work.
Pusha served Drake a cold dish, it’s just words never got psychical, Drake acts like he loves battle rap but then got strung up on the 40 line.
Didn’t Nore call Pharrell the f word in an interview about 20 years ago?
If that’s the case, Nore is the fuqboy. The only song from Nore’s first came that was a certified hit was Superthug which was produced by Pharrell
Blah blah Drake been making daddy issues music his entire career and pusha still doing coke rap at 50, that’s mental illness Rap is becoming more mental illness every year
Pharrell you sex doll looking mother fucka, shut the f up… ain’t no hip hop without beef…
HE DIDN’T SAY DAT SHIT STOP POSTING FAKE NEWS……
