21 savage is taking all the credit for pushing Drake to speak his mind on their joint album Her Loss.
During an interview with DJ Akademiks, 21 admitted to hyping up Drake to write those lyrics, despite the backlash surrounding Drake’s alleged subliminal disses.
“You know I’m’ pointing it out like when he sends me the songs. I’m’ pointing out what I heard,” 21 said. “I’m”‘ tellin’ him like, ”yeah n***a, talk that shit”. You know I’m’ gassing him. I’m’ behind him. Whatever he standing on, I’m’ standing on it too. Say what you feel, n***a.”
On Friday, fans and critics alike were shocked to hear the diss directed towards Megan Thee Stallion on “Circo Loco,” where he insinuated that she was lying about being shot by Tory Lanez. Then on “Middle Of The Ocean,” where he came for Serena Williams’s husband, and again towards DRAM on “BackOutsideBoyz,” where he referenced an altercation between him and Drake’s security in 2015.
