I can’t think about the previous yr or so has been a fantastic one for Drake, with all people from the Contained in the NBA crew to former President Obama shading him amidst his feud with Kendrick Lamar. Even after the “Hotline Bling” artist launched a brand new album in February, folks actually can’t cease speaking about Okay-Dot’s epic Tremendous Bowl Halftime Present. Now, a humorous five-word touch upon Justin Bieber’s Instagram suggests Drake was dealt one other blow.
Justin Bieber put out an open name over the weekend, asking artists to “Dm me if you happen to wanna make music collectively,” in keeping with an Instagram publish that captured the request. A number of huge names reportedly took the Biebs up on his provide, together with Kehlani, Huge Sean and Jaden Smith. Whereas we don’t know if the “Peaches” singer reached out to these events, we all know one man who apparently didn’t get a response, as Drake commented:
I DM’d however no reply.
That is truly actually amusing to me, as a result of why would Drake even write this? We don’t know that Justin Bieber hit again any of the individuals who might need DM’d him, as a result of no one else made that public data. It appears Drake was simply setting himself up for extra roasting, and people within the feedback delivered, writing:
- Drake must learn the room 😅 – shellie_molleck
- Drake must take a touch – chloropheels
- Trigger he wished Kendrick to dm… – davellanet
- Why would this man embarrass himself additional by commenting that 🥴 – cupidslabyrinth
- Justin’s like…. anybody else? – the_colorado_mom
It’s additionally doable that the remark from the rapper, whose actual title is Aubrey Graham, might have been sarcastic. Because it seems Justin Bieber doesn’t observe the rapper on Instagram, Drake could not have been in a position to ship a DM within the first place. (In the meantime, it appears the “Hotline Bling” performer does observe each Justin and his spouse Hailey Bieber.)
Drake and Justin Bieber have identified one another for over a decade. The rapper was featured on Bieber’s third album Consider in 2012 and likewise did a remix of his fellow Canadian’s “Belief Points.”
Is it doable that the Justice artist doesn’t wish to work with Drake after all the things that’s transpired over the previous yr? The feud between the “Nokia” singer and Kendrick Lamar dominated popular culture in 2024, taking the type of a rap battle that was broadly thought of a W for Lamar when he launched the diss monitor “Not Like Us.”
The music, which calls Drake out by title and accuses him of cultural appropriation and sexual misconduct, went on to brush the Grammys. It received all 5 of the classes it was nominated for: File of the Yr, Track of the Yr, Greatest Rap Efficiency, Greatest Rap Track and Greatest Music Video. After which there was the next-level trolling on the Tremendous Bowl.
I’m unsure what actually went down between Justin Bieber and Drake (or if nothing in any respect went down, because it seems) however, with the rapper catching so many strays for the diss monitor and the authorized motion he’s taken towards it, I can’t actually fault Bieber if he’s simply attempting to steer clear.
