Pusha T Is “Ready” For Drake Beef

    While he waits for his album to drop, Pusha T says he’s unafraid. His upcoming album, My Name is My Name, is on the way but Pusha is making it clear that he’s ready for more feuds with emcees to battle on wax. In a recent interview with DJ Whoo Kid, Pusha explained that he’s “ready for anything and anybody” and assured fans that he won’t “shy away from anything,” including Drake. 

    When asked specifically about Drake, Pusha responded without fear. 

    “At the end of the day, I’m ready for anything and anybody. This is music to me. It’s something I’m good at. It’s something I’m very good at,” he explained. “I don’t shy away from anything. I’m not into it like that. And I keep it tasteful. And I keep it Hip Hop. I keep it Rap. That’s it. I ain’t trippin’. I’m not even here to discredit what they’ve achieved or their skills. Drake is good.”

    He also took a shot at Consequence, rehashing a line he said earlier in the year. 

    “If a man bought your teeth, you can never speak ill of that man,” he said, quoting his tweet about Consequence’s recent disgruntled statements towards Kanye West. “Confucius said it and I agree with that one belief. I don’t care what nobody say. Ain’t nobody ever bought my teeth.” 

    He also said a fellow G.O.O.D. Music artist, Common, is not scared of a battle on wax, either. 

    “Common don’t care. Y’all don’t even realize,” he shared. “I ain’t even gon’ sit here and expose Common, man. That man crazy, man. That’s my homeboy. Common’s my man.”

    More from the interview can be heard below.

    1. alls this gay little munchkin does is drop wack mixtapes and talk. album is never coming out cuz he has no deal, hes a GOOD music staff writer not an artist. pusha t is like 40 years old, been in the game 20 years and he’s still a worker. drake is a homo and his music stinks but at least drake is satisfying his base. pusha t keeps talking about an album thats never coming, beef hes never going to initiate, and taking interviews with anyone dumb enough to want one with him. pusha t is ready for anything, other than direct name calling and putting out decent music.

      1. lol, you’re gettin played. these rappers speak on these things because the press asks them, then quotes them out of context.

      2. ^^^Yeah, but the only artist taking these interviews are the ones whose careers have no buzz or tangible future. When’s the last time Kanye did an interview? Jay-Z? Shit, even Wayne? When they do decide to do interviews, they are done on their own terms. Mainly because they have shit going on to talk about. PushaT has no past and no future so he’s forced to conduct bullshit interviews for a modicum of buzz while the artists he regular disses are on worldwide tours and making multi-million dollar deals.

        PushaT stays losing.

      3. pusha t has no past? sure.

        the clipse albums are better than any ymcmb album. even drake knows that, thats why he bought a fake pusha t autographed microphone on ebay

      4. lmao why the fuck do you think that they don’t do interviews anymore? See my comment above.

        you’re kidding right? there are more artists not taking interviews than that do. Right because kendrick lamar is giving interviews because he doesn’t have “shit going on to talk about.”

        Its bad if no one wants to interview you. then you got a fuckin problem.

      5. How many cocaine and Pyrex references are too many? Obviously you have a high tolerance for repetitive drug inferences. To each, his own. By knocking PushaT, I’m not upping YMCMB. I’m just knocking PushaT and his lack of subject matter and flexibility.

        I don’t sell or smoke crack, so why would I want every song on your able to make references to it? Just me.

      6. whoever the dumbfuck who says jayz and wayne dont do interviews are just stupid..how else would u know jayz is touring, how would of u guessed wayne said fuck NY and miami..its called interviews..wether its on camera or on radio its an interview lmaooo

      7. It’s completely obvious that 99% of the people on this site just read the first sentence of posts and run with it. I pretty sure I also stated that “when they do agree to interviews” they’re own their own terms and about what they have planned and NOT about other rappers.

        What does it say about a rapper when every time he does an interview, all they ask him about is another rapper? Weird.

      1. Keeping it Hip-Hop Drake could destroy some so-called MCs, none in the same league as the types of Pusha T but definitely some that get away with being a “rapper” nowadays.

    2. Way too many sensationalist posts on this site. It seems at least a few times a week there’s a misleading headline or quotes spun to try to spark interest and stir up controversy for web hits. step your game up.

    3. Pusha better be ready to get ethered if he goin at Drake. Niggas can hate on Drake but no denyin Drake got talent and good wordplay. Cocain raps can only take you so far.

      1. Uh, that I like bitches? Maybe? No? Ok.

        Drake makes music based on real emotions and vulnerability. PushaT just keeps telling us how to cook crack. I have a job, PushaT. I don’t want/need to know how to make/sell crack. I like my job…and my freedom. Thanks for the tutorials though. Duly noted.

    4. It’s horribly shameful and unsettling that an artist with Pusha T’s ability wastes his talents on petty beefs and music about Pyrex containers.

      1. NO HE DID NOT…..

        DRIZZY = MEGA-POPSTAR

        PUSHA T = the other twin (where is MALICE)

        DRIZZY VS WALE…would be more like it….7777 882

      1. Jae Millz is that dude that rocks clown makeup on his mixtape’s that’s been in the game for a decade and hasn’t released an album

    5. Drake aint gonna beef with him, dude is on top of the game and noesnt care. Even Common didnt get a direct response from him and he’s a much bigger star then Pusha. The only people who care about Rap Beef anymore are the nerds who sit on computers and dont buy anything anyway. Pop fans think it’s a waste of time and street dudes wonder why your not going to see him instead of talking about it. If Pusha wants to rap beef with somebody go to KOTD.

    6. this is the same dude who got asked about making songs with correctional officer ricky and tried to justify it by saying we dont wanna look into most of these rappers backgrounds.

    7. I appreciate it that he acknowledges drakes position/talent
      and is saying its strictly on wax/hip hop

      but at the same time the, timing of this is suspect

    8. Drake already handled Common without words, so how much easier would it be to handle Pusha T? His last album sold 8900 first week lol

      1. sales dont mean shit when it comes to dissing and battling

        but i still think drake could go at pusha pretty hard if he wanted

      2. like above poster stated, sales do not matter when it comes to a rap beef/battle, could be used as bragging rights but no one wants to hear that….

        and push has only had mix tapes, no official solo album yet. so it is hard to compare a mixtape with probably little marketing/advertising to a drake official album that YMCMB is pushing hard and paying off radios to play their stuff

    9. pushas a beast on the mic. him in clipse been doing it for eyars its funny ppl say pusha cant hold his own when his DEBUT SOLO album didnt even drop yet. lmao u serious..pusha alrdy said his mixtapes for his core.. so if u dont like drug pushin dont bump a clipse or pusha album..

      that said id like to see pusha expand his lyric and topic game a lil..to keep it 100 i still bump pushas last mixtape that dropped last month today… im interested to hear his solo tho see how it bumps

      and on another note pusha/drake would be hot beef drakes nice on the mic regardless of his degrassi past hes got skills.. but i dont think of pusha as a beefer i just want good music

    10. I’m not sure why folks on here are saying Common did not destroy Drake, because he did. On top of that why would Common sweat music when he got that movie money flowing. Music is one thing but the movie money is on that next level.

      1. If You Knew Your History Then You’d Obviously Would Know That The Clipse Is Drakes Favorite Rappers. The Kid Bought A “KnockOff” Mic On Ebay Thinking Pusha Used It In A Performance.

        #PleaseThinkBeforeYouType

    11. y’all should listen to the interview before posting a comment he’S doing interview to promote his album who’s comming soon and DJ Whoo Kid his the one whogive him question and he just answer the question and the way he respond was the right way… If drake is battling you to bacc up wayne what u gon do… I ain’t scared of nobody what else would you love him to answer COME ON PEOPLE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    12. Hiphopdx writes another misleading title to get people to come and argue on their site. I swear half the shit on the front page doesn’t have anything to do with actual music. The writers of this site are a bunch of gossiping women.

    13. YMCMB is wack

      Wayne is overhyped, time to end this troll
      Drake is not that bad, phone freestyle?, wack!
      Nicki could be good, her label and Euro-house f*cked it up

      The rest? GTFOH

      What, Busta Rhymes still with those morons?
      Okay, Busta Rhymes is the best rapper over there

      Busta is a real MC

    14. this dudes bars as as hard as Jello!!!!
      And to be honest i think Drake would take him out…and yeah muthafuckas….I’m 100% hip hop….Fuck what you think! Yeah everyone always says fuck Drake or whatever but Pusha T…c’mon son…Your mic and his mic, c’mon son no EQUAL!

    15. OH and for all of you saying that Drake got Common….BITCH PLEASE!!! That was just a warm up for COMMON. Ever heard “Tha Bitch in You”….If you think Ether was hard..listen to that and it’ll show you that when C-O double M O to the N muthafucka! goes in, he’s NOT to be fucked with!….He ethered Ice Cube with that tracked before ETHERing was used….HAHA!

      1. this guy is right, Common definitely won that – Ice Cube even admitted to losing when Farrakhan peaced it out between the two rappers.

    16. pusha t’s pen game is nearly unmatched. only person that could prolly got at push would be cassidy or joe budden. with that said, pusha needs to reconcile with Birdman. Birdman is the only legitimate music mogul in the game.

    17. This article is so stupid, the nigga Pusha didnt even say Drake’s name nor did the interview even focus on Pusha/Drake beef. HiphopDX doing anything to get us to take a look. Fuck outta here.

    18. At the end of the day, Drake wins. Think about it, these two could beef & even if Pusha T wins, Drake will still be the bigger music artist. I’m not an avid Pusha T listener but I heard enough songs from him to know he’s a good MC. I can’t say much on his solo career. Drake has & can hold his own. For the people that say Drake is emotional, remember that Take Care was the only exception. Most songs on that track sounded emotional, deep & depressing but good. Drake can spit about other shit & has bars (for example; Goin in, Over, Pop That Verse, Stay Schemin Verse. etc) Drake would wins this beef, but you never know. Pusha T just sounds like a hater & targeting YMCMB. Theres alot of other wack rappers in the game but he’s targeting these two for some reason I don’t know. He should just focus on making good music, this beef won’t help his career because Drake will still be winning. A useless beef.

      1. @ real Montana. Real talk. Co-sign. Pusha ain’t made any really dope shit since being solo. All average / forgettable bars despite Kanye co-signs

    19. Nvm, this wouldn’t be a “Beef” just competition. 50 Cent vs Ja Rule, Tupac vs Biggie, Jay Z vs Nas… that was beef. Whats going on now, is just competition or just niggas hating & bashing each other subliminally.

      1. while that’s true, what is 98% of other people gonna label it as? a beef. Cause that’s what makes headlines and makes people talk. Niggas want that beef, almost some WWE shit goin on in the rap game

    20. What does it say about a rapper when every time he does an interview, all they ask him about is another rappers? Weird.

    21. PUSHA T A STRAIGHT BITCH THIS GUY NEEDS TO STOP DRAKE CAME OUT ON STAGE AT ONE OF PUSHA TS SHOWS RIGHT AFTER HE WAS SENDING SHOTS AT DRAKE AND WAYNE NOBODY NOT EVEN THAT LIL KID IN THE WHEELCHAIR FROM DEGRASSI IS SCARED OF PUSHA T N HIS CORNY ASS PREACHING BROTHER

      1. Lilwayne = Mirror , hustlaz musik , Gossip , No love ft EMINEM , A milli , Tie my hands , shoot me down .E.T.C
        Drake = Headlines ,HYFR , Light Up ft Jayz , Unforgettable , Aston music , best i ever had , E.T.C
        FOR GOD SAKE WAYNE YMCMB not That bad , too much haterz #

      2. i dont fuck w YM but aston martin was livvve dont hate on that song..drakes by far the best, tyga not 2 bad theres a few ..waynes towards the bottom on his own crew

    22. dumb media trying to goad Pusha into a beef with Drake. He didn’t even say anything negative about him. Drake doesn’t want trouble with anybody on or off wax. Dude is a cupcake.

    23. Misleading ass article to try to stir up some hits on here, bravo HHDX. Comments are always entertaining though.

      ANd btw, Common rocked Ice Cube on “The Bitch In You”. Coming from a conscious rapper going at a West Coast heavyweight like that was ballsy and yet still Com pulled it off. Y’all need to do some homework.

      1. Yeah yeah yeah, Cube still the man regardless of what went down. To this day I take Cube over Common! So reply with something slick so you can expose the bitch in you!!

      2. Ay dawg, Cube is the shit, don’t get it twisted. Legend in Hip Hop/Gangsta Music. All that was stated was that Common got him on that track. They both are favorites in my book. Go take some Midol you sensitive ass bitch.

      3. ^^^^ Edubb must like the taste of Cubes nuts. Com going at Cube was/is probably one of the top 5 dis tracks of all time. …Ether, No Vaseline, The Bitch in You, No Rest for The Wicked & Drop a Gem on ‘Em………. Plus Common went at Cube & Mack 10!!! I heard a bitch say you her favorite rapper, so i had to slap her! hahah!……..Oh yeah im from L.A…….SOUL ASSASSINS BITCH!

    24. Damn editors at DX turning into 50 wit all this fake beef shit they tryin to start. Pusha dont need it wit Drake. Yall niggas on here tryin to hard to sell a story that is fake.

      Bawse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      1. shit i thought u wrote forgettable.. my fault yes imma dumb ass..but half those songs arnt to good is my point lolll im high excuse me

    26. drake good he’s better than wayne anyday everyday but making a beef between drake and pusha-t thats 50 cent vs ja rule all over again thats like L.L and can a b*tch havent really been no real beefs on wax since aftermath/shady/g-unit vs murder inc, former owner/actor of the source

    27. this site disgusts me. blogs like hhdx are exactly why kanye stopped doing interviews. no other rap site has reported this useless instigating ass story. this is why i only visit this site once a week, and thats just for sales

      1. so instead of doing interviews he just goes on rants, screams and breaks down in tears at his shows? LOL good work kanye.

      ^^^^^says the anonymous fag….its the internet fag…why are you afraid? OH, and finish your English class son.

      ever hear of a typo? i think u need school dumb fuck

    31. Drake > Pusha T. This is manufactured to just to sell records but its a bad ploy. Pusha T is slowly destroying the Clipse legacy day-by-day by engaging in corny beefs. I’m a drake fan but dude, really? Beefing with Drake is like beefing with Biz Markie or Wyclef…why even bother…he’s a very easy target and he’s a friendly low-key much younger soft guy. Common already screwed up his legacy by beefing with Drake. He just looked like a cornball dissing a kid on the come up. Its like someone’s uncle showing up at a high school party all menacing. Drake will always seem like the underdog. You just look out of place. Go after Game / 50 cent or Jay-z. Then maybe you get some respect in the streets. Go after Drake tho – just corny. It makes you look soft. And yeah and Drake destroyed him in that one line anyways ala Jay-z vs 50 cent (“I’m about a dolla, WTF is 50 Cent?”)

    32. He’s not dissing Drake, he’s responding to a question in a very general way + he mentions Drake having a good skillset…

      Much ado about ******
