A$AP Rocky has opened up about his issues with Drake but makes it clear that the beef is basically non-existent.
The Harlem rapper recently sat down with Billboard to discuss fatherhood, his relationship with Rihanna, and, of course, the drama surrounding his feud with Drake before the OVO rapper’s rap battle against Kendrick Lamar.
“You got to realize, certain n*ggas was throwing shots for years. I ain’t in the middle of that sh*t,” Rocky said. “That’s not how I retaliate right now. I got bigger fish to fry than some p*ssy boys. It is real beef outside. It is real. N*ggas getting really clipped and blitzed every day. N*ggas sniping n*ggas every day. That little kitty sh*t ain’t about nothing.”
Despite Kendrick and Drake’s beef overshadowing many things at the time, if you recall, Drake took shots at Rocky on a few of his ‘For All the Dogs’ tracks. Specifically, in “Another Late Night,” Drizzy rapped, “I ain’t Pretty Flacko, b*tch, this sh*t get really Rocky/ Damn, what? Dirty how I did him in the Wraith.” To add fuel to the fire, Drake also threw shade at Rocky’s girlfriend, Rihanna, in “Fear of Heights.”
“Why they make it sound like I’m still hung up on you?/ That could never be/ Gyal can’t ruin me/ Better him than me, better it’s not me/I’m anti, I’m anti/ Yeah, and the sex was average with you/ Yeah, I’m anti ’cause I had it with you/ Okay, I’m auntie like your daddy sister/ Auntie like a family picture/ And I had way badder bi**hes than you, TBH/ Yeah, that man, he still with you, he can’t leave you/Y’all go on vacation, I bet it’s Antilles,” he said in the song.
But, of course, Rocky wouldn’t let the jabs slide and took to his music to return the shots. In January, Rocky appeared on in Kid Cudi’s “WOW” track and rapped, “These n*ggas can’t stomach me, gotta go get a mandrake.” A few months later, he followed up with more jabs on Future and Metro Boomin’s “Show of Hands” track, seemingly responding to Drake’s speaking on Rihanna.
“N*ggas in they feelings over women, what, you hurt or somethin’? / I smashed before you birthed son, Flacko hit it first, son,” Rocky rapped.
