Kanye West Apologizes To Drake & Addresses Their Fall Out [PEEP]

Kanye West is ready to admit he was somewhat at fault for the fall out with Drake.

Late Tuesday night Yeezus went on Twitter to wave a white flag and attempted to make amends with The 6 God, who had been dissing him “Nonstop,” since Pusha T dropped his scathing “The Story of Adidon” diss.

“Sending good energy and love to Drake and family and crew,” he wrote along in a tweet that was accompanied by a photo of Drake’s stage from the “Aubrey and the Three Migos Tour.” “I haven’t seen the show in person but the images look incredible online I understand where the confusion started.”

Ye went on to apologize for “stepping on your release date in the first place” and also leaving him off “Lift Yourself,” which Drake is rumored to have wanted to be on. “We spoke about doing Lift Yourself together I should have given you the opportunity for us to do this together before I released it,” continued Kanye.

The beef was rumored to have begun after Pusha T dissed Drizzy on his ‘Daytona’ tracks, “Infared” and “What Would Meek Do,” which was produced by Kanye and the latter featured him.

 

There should have been no songs with my involvement that had any negative energy towards you,” wrote Ye in another tweet. “Since we were building as friends and brothers I should have spoken to Pusha about the Quentin Miller bar.”

Kanye and Pusha T are said to be responsible for ADIDAS losing out on Drake and in-turn forcing him to go back to Nike and sign a new deal.

Yeezy goes on to say he didn’t listen to either Drake or Pusha T’s diss tracks, writing, “I did not have any conversations about your child with Pusha,” he said. “I don’t play with the idea of people’s children after I spoke to Wiz a few years earlier.”

Drake has already had a lot of success with his single “God’s Plan,” which topped the charts, earned a platinum certification, put up record-breaking numbers on YouTube with its heartfelt video, and helped his ‘Scorpion’ album go platinum upon its release.

That’s not where it stops as according to documents obtained by TMZ, the 6 God has bigger tings in store. The documents state Drizzy has filed a trademark for “God’s Plan” and Drake’s plan is to use the name for a TV game show and clothing merch.

Whether or not the “God’s Plan” game show is actually in the works is still to be seen. Perhaps the show, if it comes to fruition will be inspired by the video which has garnered over 700-million views on YouTube.

Drizzy has been seeking other endeavors aside from music and recently signed on to be the executive producer for an upcoming HBO teen drama called “Euphoria,” that’ll star fellow musician, Zendaya. In his recent “Sicko Mode” collaboration off Travis Scott’s ‘ASTROWORLD’, he also hinted at re-uping his deal with Nike/Jordan.

Drake Goes Off On BBC Radio 1Xtra’s “Fire In The Booth” Freestyle [WATCH]

You really thought Drake was gonna drop a double album and stay quiet for the rest of the year?

Last weekend Drake spit fire with some subliminal shots at Kanye West on Link Up TV’s “Behind Barz” freestyle. He follows that up with another London link up, as he connects with Charlie Sloth for a “Fire in the Booth” freestyle.

On a late night in London, Drizzy left the club and hit the studio to spit some bars. He begins with a little braggadocio talk saying, “I been waiting on this one,” before going off.

He started off by shouting out Boi1da, who produced the instrumental he spit over. From there he gets right to it and even sends some more subliminal shots at Kanye West and even Pusha T rapping, “The only skeletons here are from the nights I raised hell,” he raps, later adding, “Ya’ll keepin’ the score while watchin’ me score / Ya’ll keep the awards, I’ll take the rewards.”

The 6 God wrapped up the freestyle by shouting out Skepta, French Montana, Quavo, and Offset, who he congratulated for his newly-born daughter with Cardi B. Before stepping out he promises Charlie he’ll return at the top of 2019 for another freestyle.

While in London Drizzy made a surprise appearance at Wireless Festival and apparently also shot a music video, possibly for the viral, “In My Feelings.”

Watch the freestyle below.
