A$AP Rocky will reportedly respond to Drake disses on upcoming album
A$AP Rocky is reportedly set to respond to Drake‘s disses on his upcoming record ‘Don’t Be Dumb’.
The rapper announced ‘Don’t Be Dumb’ at Paris Fashion Week during his recent runway debut for his AWGE line. Along with revealing the album’s title and previewing some tracks, Rocky shared it was due for release on August 30 – pre-order/pre-save here.
Now, DJ Kast One has told Hot 97 that Rocky is gearing up to respond to Drake’s disses on ‘Don’t Be Dumb’. Drake previously took aim at Rocky in the song ‘Family Matters’, one of the many exchanges traded primarily between the Canadian and Kendrick Lamar.
The DJ told host Ebro: “I heard A$AP Rocky definitely addressing a lot of the main topics that are happening out here right now. Let’s just say, the list keeps going on strong.”
After Ebro directly asked Kast One whether “Rocky is still on Drake’s list”, Kast One claimed: “He’s gonna be cemented on the list after this.”
Though the pair have previously collaborated together on Rocky’s track ‘F**KIN’ PROBLEMS’, Rocky sparked his own mini-feud with Drake after the release of ‘Push Ups’.
Rocky released his own guest verse on Future and Metro Boomin’s ‘Show of Hands’, during which he referenced the mother of Drake’s child, Sophie Brussaux: “N**gas in they feelings over women, what, you hurt or somethin’. I smash before you birthed son, Flacko hit it first, son.”
However, Drake fired back on ‘Family Matters’, alluding to his previous relationship with Rocky’s current partner Rihanna, rapping: “Rakim talkin’ sh*t again,” Drake spits. “Gassed ’cause you hit my BM first, n**ga, do the math, who I was hittin’ then?”.
