Hot 97’s Peter Rosenberg
claimed Drake penned the hook for Kanye West’s new track “Yikes” during a recent episode of Ebro In The Morning. It turns out Aubrey Graham (Drake’s real name) actually did contribute to the
ye cut.
According to TIDAL,
Drake, super producer Mike Dean and West are among the many contributors listed as “composer” on the song.
West was credited as a contributor on Drake’s 2016 diss track, “Two Birds, One Stone,” which was aimed at Pusha T and Kid Cudi. Pusha didn’t reply to the 6 God’s barbs until last month, when he released
“Infrared,” which took shots at both Drake and Cash Money CEO Bryan “Birdman” Williams.
Drake retaliated with the scathing
“Duppy’s Freestyle” and Pusha fired back with another fiery diss,
“The Story Of Adidon.”
West tried to
dead the beef on Twitter and it’s seemingly cooled off for now.
West’s follow-up to 2016’s
The Life Of Pablo, ye, was released on June 1 following a
listening party in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
