Only a few hours ago (around 9 P.M. EST), Pusha T took to Twitter to release his newest Drake diss track, "The Story Of Adidon", and... Drake better be coming with the heat after this one.
One line in the song Pusha claims "if we all go to hell it'll be worth it", and with the information he drops in this new record, that just may very well be the case. Push brings what seems like EVERYTHING to light about Drake, including a LONG LOST CHILD that Drake supposedly had with former porn star Sophie Brussaux, Drake's mother, Drake's producer's (Noah "40" Shebib) battle with Multiple Sclerosis (and here's the kicker... tomorrow, 5/30 is MS DAY!!!!), and the cherry on top; you see that artwork above? Oh yes... that's Drake in blackface... according to Pusha, the photo is from an unreleased photoshoot Drake did with photographer David Leyes for an old clothing brand; if there's anything that will turn the people on ANYONE, and for good reason; it's someone painted in black face. Hey Drake, you got some splainin' to do.
How Drake counters a blow like this, I do not know. But I will keep you posted on how it plays out. Listen to Pusha's new diss record below, and check out Vulture's breakdown of the track and the disses included in that link.
Pusha T has caused quite a stir in the last 24 hours with his latest album release Daytona, which released last night at midnight (technically, May 25th). The new 7 song album from Push is entirely produced by Kanye West (who we won't get into with his ridiculous comments as of the last few months, hip hop has disowned you Kanye), and features a slew of classic coke-rhymes, but the most noticeable lines from the album are what people are speculating to be Drake diss lines.
In the final song of the album "Infrared", Push essentially dedicates an entire song to Drake, targeting things such as his label boss's issues with his own label ("oh now it's okay to kill Baby, niggas looked at me crazy like I really killed a baby, salute Ross 'cause the message was pure, he see what I see when you see Wayne on tour, flash without the fire, another multi-platinum rapper trapped and can't retire, niggas get exposed, I see the cracks and I'm the liar?, shit I been exposed I took the crack and built the wire, now who do you admire?" etc.) what Push refers to as "inflated rap sales" ("your rap songs is all trying my patience, them prices ain't real without inflation") and past ghostwriting rumors ("how could you ever write these wrongs, when you don't even write your songs").
Drake then responded a mere hours later with an Instagram post, appearing to be a invoice directed at Pusha, titled "For Professional Services Rendered, for Promotional assistance and career reviving."
Which, makes sense if you listen to the track Drake's OVO Sound Twitter account posted at around 6 PM tonight (May 25th), titled "Duppy Freestyle", which is an immediate response to Pusha, and where in the finals lines of the song Drake raps "tell 'Ye we got an invoice coming to you, considering we just sold another 20 for you." You can call Drake anything you want, but dammit is the man prepared for battle when it comes back around to him.
So what do you guys think? The hip hop world has seemed to speculate some Pusha-Drake beef for quite some time, considering many believed Drake to fire shots at Pusha on his loosie track released pre-More Life, "Two Birds One Stone". Drake seemed a little TOO prepared for the smoke Pusha had coming for him, responding less than 24 hours later on Instagram, AND in audio form in the new song, "Duppy Freestyle" (which by the way, what the actual FUCK does that mean?). Does Push go back at Drake? Does Drake respond back after Push comes with more smoke? Keep your eyes glued to social media over the next few days and we'll probably all get to find out. Drake is as calculated as anybody in rap now when it comes to diss tracks and responses (if not more calculated), but Drake is not messing with another Meek Mill in proven emcee Pusha T. We'll see what happens, as both rappers have albums to promote (with Drake's coming in June), so who knows how crazy things could get. In the mean time, check out the invoice from Drake to Pusha above, and check out Drake's response record below.
