During a livestream appearance, the artist formerly known as Kanye West said Drake inspired some of his recent work. Ye even admitted he copied some of the 6god’s flows.
“Drake’s music doesn’t copy what I do,” he told Drake affiliate Top5 during the stream. “I’ve copied a Drake flow plenty of times. Once Drake took over the algorithm, I made tracks that were basically copies of his style.”
Despite their rocky history, Ye has recently thrown his full support behind Drake’s legal battle with UMG. “Yo, I’m so happy right now, you don’t understand,” he recently said in a video on X. “With this UMG, Drake, Kendrick situation, Super Bowl, Grammys — this sh*t was driving me and you know where it should be driving me, but this is the biggest victory in music history right here.”
Ye Takes Aim at Old Drake Rival, Pusha T
Ye’s recent antics not just seen him side with some old foes, he’s even going at some of his closest peers.
Most recently he targeted former G.O.O.D. music artist Pusha T. Ye took to social media on April 29 to call out King Push. Accusing yet another person of abandoning him, when he needed help.
“Pusha T, all that tough guy sh*t. Where the tough guy sh*t? … I bled for you. I asked for one thing: Use for your voice, your stability. People don’t think you’re crazy. People respect you. You stood on my shoulders to take Drake out,” he said during a recent live stream.
Drake and Kendrick Lamar ruled the headlines last year with their bitter rap feud. But before that, Drizzy’s most noted rival was Pusha T after their 2018 feud.
