Drake Spiced up Feud With Kanye, During a Live Performance In Chicago
During the Aubrey & Three Migos tour stop on Saturday in Chicago, Drake decided to improve his "Know Yourself" performance by changing the lyrics of what appears to be a clear shot to Kanye West. The spike comes in the Kanye mention at the first verse of the song: "Then Kanye flopped, it was polos and backpacks." Immediately, There was little audible noise, then the audience catches up as Drake sang the main slogan of the song.

Drake isn't new to calling out hometown heroes and institutions: "You see they telling lies on Hot 97 that's how it goes/I told 'em fire Funk Flex and then I'll come and do your show," during a 2016 freestyle at Madison Square Garden.
Indeed, the most recent drama is between Drake and Kanye West / Pusha-T. Although Drake never dropped a piece of response to "The Adidon Story", many have interpreted some of his recent album Scorpio's lyrics as being intended for West. The freestyle lines "Behind Barz" of July “They wanna link when they got no chunes/They too worried about selling out shoes" had fans assuming they were directed to Kanye.
In response to Drake's unexpected reaction, a fan commented on Twitter: '‘It was between Push and Drake. Drake wanna act grown coming for Push, Kanye & Cudi. Lmao that’s why he got bodied and got the biggest L in 2018.’'
One other stated: ‘'He needs to let that hurt go. Funny how he’s coming at Ye when he didn’t even respond back to Pusha.’'
Apparently, Most of the fans are still waiting for Drake to respond to Pusha, instead of going after Kanye. However, like we know Drake, he must prefer to go after Ye because Push isn't big enough.
Unfortunately for Drake, he may never get an answer from Kanye because the latter doesn't want to get involved in any type of beef. He quoted: "I’ve never been about beef. I’m about love lines were crossed and it’s not good for anyone so this is dead now."
Whisper it from the rooftops or shout it in the underground clubs: hip hop, once a symphony of street-smart lyricism and beats that spoke to the soul, now dances perilously on the edge of an artistic abyss…
