“It’s the 1st qtr. This is going to be a good game. Grab a seat,” he wrote. “Perfect day to boss up.”
Ross then unleashed the full fury on the 6 God, accusing him of getting a nose job to appear less Black, spitting: “You ain’t never want to be a n-gga anyway, n-gga/ That’s why you had a operation to make your nose smaller than your father nose, n-gga.”

The track goes on to explain why the former collaborators fell out in the first place: “I unfollowed you, n-gga, ’cause you sent the motherfucking cease-and-desist to French Montana, n-gga/ You sent the police, n-gga, hatin’ on my dog project/ That wasn’t the same white boy that I seen, n-gga, when we were makin’ them early records, n-gga/ When you were happy to be around n-ggas, seein’ n-ggas holdin’ them sticks/ Yeah/ You owe motherfucking Stunna your life, n-gga.”
Check out the posts, and the full diss track, below.
Drake also replied to Rick Ross’s diss by posting a text conversation between himself and his mother, which makes reference to the nose job insult.
“I would have gotten us a 2 for 1 deal if I went, Ma,” he wrote to his mother, before returning the insult back to Ross, captioning the post, “@richforever you’re one nosy goof.”
Drake has been in the hot seat over the past few weeks as a number of his A-list peers have taken shots at him, and a response that has been confirmed to be by him is now making the rounds online.
On Saturday (April 13), a bar-heavy joint hit the internet that addresses several of Drizzy’s ongoing beefs. This includes attacks on Kendrick Lamar in particular, who kickstarted the drama with his verse on Future and Metro Boomin‘s “Like That” last month.
While the voice on said track sounds like the Canadian superstar, it isn’t entirely clear if it is authentic or generated by artificial intelligence. The subject matter pertains directly to the many beefs the 37-year-old is currently negotiating.
“You better do that motherfuckin’ show inside the bitty/ Maroon 5 need a verse, you better make it witty/ Then we need a verse for the Swifties,” the voice raps, referring to K.Dot’s previous crossovers into pop music.

About A$AP Rocky and The Weeknd recently joining the battle and throwing shade at Drake, the song continues with a reference to Kendrick comparing himself to Prince and his adversary as Michael Jackson: “What the fuck is this, a twenty-V-one, n-gga?/ What’s a prince to a king? He a son, n-gga.”
Additionally, the song also takes shots at J. Cole (who recently withdrew from the war of words) and Rick Ross while suggesting that SZA deserves a spot in the Big 3 more than Kendrick.
