Drake Deletes ‘The Heart Part 6’ From Instagram: Here’s How Fans Are Reacting
Drake is doing some spring cleaning when it comes to scrubbing his social media pages before the summer arrives in Toronto.
Eagle-eyed fans noticed that The 6 God recently deleted his Instagram post for his final Kendrick Lamar diss “The Heart Part 6” from his feed. As of press time, Drake’s most recent Instagram post on his feed is his “Family Matters” diss track followed by celebrating the sixth anniversary of Views in April.
“The Heart Part 6” — a jab at Lamar using the same title format from K. Dot’s “The Heart” series — was released on May 5 to Drake’s YouTube page and didn’t elicit a response from the Compton rapper. “The Heart Part 6 out now,” Drake captioned the song’s post before alleging Lamar would soon be returning fire. “And we know you’re dropping 6 mins after so instead of posting my address you have a lot to address.”
Drake appeared to be on the defensive with “The Heart Part 6,” which found him fending off pedophilia allegations and claiming he planted bad info within Lamar’s team when it came to the West Coast native’s claims that Drizzy had an 11-year-old daughter on “Meet the Grahams.”
Regardless, rap fans didn’t hold back after finding out Drake deleted the post. Some used it to take a victory lap for Kendrick while others speculated that it was a white flag move from Drizzy.
“This is embarrassing Kendrick Lamar is really The Boogeyman,” one person wrote to X. Another hip-hop fan said: “Was better off never releasing it in the first place!”
Drake only let the smoke clear for a few weeks before delivering a couple of assists. He appeared on Sexyy Red’s “U My Everything,” which saw him rapping over Metro Boomin’s “BBL Drizzy” diss beat. Earlier this week, the OVO boss hopped on Snowd4y, a Toronto comedian and parody rapper’s “Hey There Delilah” rework titled “Wah Gwan Delilah.”
