Drake’s most notable feud came in 2018, when Pusha T revealed personal details about Drake’s family and relationships in his track “The Story of Adidon.” This seemed to cross a line for Drake, who has been relatively private about his personal life. The feud brought up debates around “diss etiquette” and whether lines were crossed.
Around the same time, Drake was also beefing with rapper Kanye West. The two had collaborated frequently over the years but tensions arose over creative differences. Kanye produced Pusha T’s diss track against Drake, further pitting the rappers against each other. Drake accused Kanye of betraying him by working with Pusha T, while Kanye felt Drake disrespected him by insinuating he was responsible for leaking info about Drake’s son. The back-and-forth played out over interviews and social media.
These high-profile feuds have captivated rap fans, with many taking sides and analyzing each artist’s diss tracks. However, the deeply personal attacks have also concerned as some fans feel the lyrics are going too far. Drake has cemented his status as a top rapper but feuding with giants like Kanye and Pusha T has opened him up to new criticism and scrutiny from the hip hop world. The feuds highlight ongoing debates around loyalty, privacy, and boundaries between artists in the competitive rap game.
