The June 14 R&Beef allegedly started with a note from Drake to CB saying, "I'm f***ing the love of your life" (classy move!) and this subliminal is pretty much on the same note. Song: A$AP Rocky f/ Drake, 2 Chainz & Kendrick Lamar "Fuckin' Problems" (2012) Potential target: Chris Brown Shots fired? Maybe It's hard to listen to this line without having Vietnam style flashbacks to the melee at New York's W.i.P nightclub between the entourages of Drizzy and Chris Brown. Push may have actually taken offense to the line as well, as he later took subliminal shots back at Drake while freestyling over this very beat saying, "The swag don't match the sweaters."īy this time, Drake was overdosing on confidence and maybe feeling himself a little too much, thus began his long line of subliminal shots. Drake once admitted to buying a microphone autographed by Pusha T on eBay back in the day, but two months before this song came out Pusha T dropped his Fear of God mixtape which failed to garner enough buzz for him to get his album rolling. Meanwhile, this line could have also been about Pusha T. They are both certainly two of his favorite rappers: Kanye has obviously a huge influence on Drake's style and Drake once said he'd probably cry when Jay dies. However, four months before this song dropped Jay and Kanye released their lackluster single to Watch The Throne, " HAM," which might have made them seem vulnerable in Drake's eyes. That's why his line line about his favorite rappers losing their mojo sounds a lot like it's directed at Jay Z and Kanye West. On May 20, 2011, Drake awoke from his post- Thank Me Later slumber to let the world know "comeback season" was upon us by releasing "Dreams Money Can Buy." The song made it clear that despite his achievements, Drake sought to achieve greater heights-to get to the level of the GOAT rappers.

A History of Drake's Subliminal Diss Lines. But lines like, "I’m just feeling like the throne is for the taking, watch me take it."? Ahh, those are a bit more obviously directed. Rhymes like, “Soap opera rappers all these niggas sound like All My Children” from 2011's "Headlines" could be about anybody. A list of Drake talking about his exes could run from here to Texas.īut seeing as how the new song “ All Me,” which came out last week, contains a few lines that seem to be directed at certain Chicago rapper, today we’re more interested in Drake's relationships with rival rappers. Some of those slick shots are about Rihanna (like that entire second verse on “ Fireworks”), some are about other past flames. Often vague enough so that it could be aimed at anyone. In fact, lately, nearly every song Drake releases features a handful of rhymes that seem to address real-life affairs. But it's not like Drake is above extracurricular affairs. That's true, we think, and something to be proud of. As he noted earlier this year on "5 AM In Toronto," Drake is proud of being one of the few rappers still known primarily for his music.
