Drake appeared to respond to Kendrick Lamar and a myriad of other rap peers with a diss track of his own that’s tentatively titled “Push Ups.”
Perhaps the rollout wasn’t what the 6 God envisioned, with a leaked unmastered version hitting the internet on Saturday (April 13). Some fans questioned the track’s legitimacy as a contingent on social media speculated it was AI-generated.
Hours later, DJ Akademiks squashed the fan theories and got his hands on the CDQ mixed edition of “Push Ups” to premiere the scathing diss for the world to hear.
It wasn’t only Kendrick Lamar that Drake appeared to take aim at with his response to K. Dot’s scorching “Like That” verse that set the rap game on fire. Future, Metro Boomin, The Weeknd, Rick Ross and more were supposedly in the 6 God’s crosshairs on the track.
Drake jabbed Lamar about his small stature and the financial splits on his contract when it came to his deal with Top Dawg Entertainment.
“How the f— you big steppin’ with a size seven men’s on/ Your last one bricked, you really not on s— / They make excuses for you ’cause they hate to see me lit / Pull your contract ’cause we gotta see the split / Ain’t no way you doin’ splits b—- your pants might rip,” he raps.
“Big difference between Mike then and Mike now/ What the f— is this, a 20-v-1, n—-/ What’s a prince to a king? He a son, n—-/ Get more love in the city that you from, n—-/ Metro, shut your ho ass up and make some drums, n—-.”
Drake then turns his attention to Rick Ross and puts his correction officer past on blast and takes credit for lending him plenty of Hot 100 hits with their collaborations like “Gold Roses,” “Money in the Grave,” “Stay Schemin'” and more.
“I might take your latest girl and cuff her like I’m Ricky/ Can’t believe he jumpin’ in, this n—- turnin’ 50/ Every song that made it on the chart, he got from Drizzy/ Spend that lil’ check you got and stay up out my business,” he spews.
Rick Ross didn’t waste any time in returning fire with his “Champagne Moments” diss coming at the OVO boss. Akademiks premiered the record which finds the MMG mogul saying Drake stole Lil Wayne’s flow and alleged that he got a nose job in the past.
“That’s why you had an operation to make your nose smaller than your father nose,” he raps.
Ross didn’t stop there as he continued to clown Drake by posting side-by-side photos of his face to his Instagram Story while referring to him as “BBL Drizzy.”
Drake responded by sharing a text message conversation with his mom on Sunday (April 14) regarding the alleged nose job while calling Ross a “nosey goof.”
“I can’t believe you would get one without me, cuz you know I always wanted one,” she joked while Drake replied, “I would have got us a 2 for 1 deal if I went ma. It’s coming from Rick Ross the guy I did songs with he’s gone loopy off the Mounjaro he hasn’t eaten in days and it’s turned him angry and racist he’s performing at proms for money it’s bad.”
Kendrick Lamar is yet to react to Drake’s “Push Up,” which hasn’t hit streaming services as of press time. Find more of the social media banter between Drizzy and Rozay below.
