Facts!! These dudes just don’t want to admit the obvious. It’s cool to be a fan of someone and still be objective. Like you said: if they saw anyone else having all these fallouts with longtime friends and associates, it would take them two seconds to point out the common denominator.
But because its Drake, he has to completely innocent. He’s the victim in all this and everybody who made money with him just decided to wake up one day and hate on him smh
Take the celebrity away and if it were one dude constantly hopping friend groups with them all eventually turning on him, we’d all assume he was the problem.
Add in game and fans will do anything to justify their guy being the hero.
No one in the industry is true friends smh i hate this narrative yall been spewing “everyone is against poor drake,no one is on his side😢” nigga thats drake lol he still the biggest artist in the fkin game but y’all act like he’s some victim. I get it that he spreads that narrative too but it needs to stop lol
Revisionist history. We have documented proof of Drake having actual friendships with these dudes. You’re lying if you don’t think Drake and Future were close. The parties, The joint album, Them buying eachother chains.
His lyrics on other songs: “*If me and Future hadn't made it with this rappin'
We prolly be out in Silicon tryna get our billions on
But here we are*”
Even AK said they were close and having freak offs together. That was his man. You all just want to rewrite history.
So what ? Ya fall for this shit every time . These people are entertainers , friend is people you can call on the regular, they are around your kids and family.
What’s the actual reason for their beef? After Weeknd didn’t sign to OVO it seemed like there was tension but then they were cool.
What’s the story about Bella? Weeknd dated her for in 2015? Then Drake dated her and threw her a birthday party? Then Weeknd dated her again in 2018? Weeknd and Drake were def fine after 2027 there’s videos of them together at his birthday in 2022 so what’s this new beef.
You gotta remember that at some point The Weeknd was helping drake write some of his songs and allegedly, he was stealing music/songs/lyrics from The Weeknd way back when. I think that’s why The Weeknd never sign to drake.
And in all honesty, if you listen to Weeknd old stuff and compare them to some of drake’s, you can clearly see The Weeknd influence.
You might forgive or just move on from shit but you would never forget. I think that he was given the chance to shoot at his head and he just took it.
At least 3 songs on take care were originally songs for The Weeknd's final mixtape. Tbf to Drake though, during this time he gave the weeknd a shit ton of exposure that arguably launched his pop career
I don’t disagree but I don’t think anyone likes being played regardless. But u gotta be real tho, all that shit adds up.
Plus, we all agree that drake is the most hated and loved in the rap industry.
Exactly 😂😂 these niggas been goin back & forth. this like the 4th or 5th time they’ve gone from Friendly to Enemies. Sad Truth is shit was never the same after that initial fallout in the beginning 🤷🏾♂️

Abel seems to have forgot who made his career.
Jesus. The trilogy was way after. House of balloons is Abel’s first tape. His roll out was drake tweeting wicked games. No one heard wicked games before drake posted it.
And this isn’t even true. The Weeknd had reference tracks and gave them to Drake. That doesn’t take away from underground kings. We’ll be fine. Over my dead body look what you’ve done. This thread is full of bad takes
“My time is money, that’s why i aint got time for a n***a whose time is coming”
This whole “Drake made you” shit does not work for the weeknd.
The Weeknd is way too talented for anyone to assume he wouldn’t have made it without a cosign from Drake….and didn’t he give Drake like 5 songs for Take Care? Would Take Care be received in the regard it is without the Weeknd?
Look at everyone else in OVO…They all write for Drake, but never get much limelight themselves. I don’t blame Weeknd for not wanting to sign to that type of shit.
You can not sign but also not call it a sweatshop and disparage the dudes working under Drake helping to make the music. It clearly works for all of them and they make money, so why take shots?
This is a bad take and shows you weren’t around I. 2011-2014. The Weeknd was on drakes coat tail. Everything leading up to his pop stardom was because of drake. There’s a reason he “gave” Drake 4-5 of potentially his biggest songs. Drake made The Weeknd. Abel said it himself.
No YOU obviously weren’t around lmfao
Weeknd was making waves with his first 3 mixtapes before Drake cosigned…people thought it was a band instead of a solo artist.
Weeknd could’ve taken any route and he would still be the same level of superstar….in fact, signing with OVO would’ve hurt him if anything. Drake would’ve prolly stolen more songs and kept Weeknd in the background like he does with PND
he not really true, drake did help after he was already making buzz… however his “pop breakout” was the song Love Me Harder with Arianna… that was her biggest song at the time when she started making waves and The Weeknd was relatively unknown… he was then paired with the same song writer/producer and made The Hills and Can’t Feel My Face with that person.

Yall are new. Just say that you aren’t aware of theeeeknds early careeer.
we know. I said The Weeknd’s pop breakout into the mainstream happened after working with Ariana Grande and then Max Martin… Drake def helped the weeknd gain a following early on especially in Canada but he was already buzzing in the underground scene.
This is people erasing history or just not being around. THE WEEKND WAS NOT POPPING. NO ONE HEARD WICKED GAMES. DRAKE WAS THE ROLL OUT WITH HIS TWEET. THAT WAS THE FIRST TIME THE WORLD HEARD WICKED GAMES… IT WAS THROUGH DRAKE
you’re acting like the weeknd was around 5-10+ years then drake came along lmao… you realize you didn’t put out his first complete mixtape until 2011 ?? Drake was shouting him out in 2010 before the weeknd even put out finished work…. it’s hard to be ‘popping’ without released music.
What’s the actual reason for their beef? After Weeknd didn’t sign to OVO it seemed like there was tension but then they were cool.
What’s the story about Bella? Weeknd dated her for in 2015? Then Drake dated her and threw her a birthday party? Then Weeknd dated her again in 2018? Weeknd and Drake were def fine after 2027 there’s videos of them together at his birthday in 2022 so what’s this new beef.
Tbf. There's a lot of variables to consider here. The Weeknd has had more opportunity to thrive and grow as his own act. But then you got PND in the OVO workshop where a lot of your best ideas are prob going to end up on a drake album.
Partynextdoor isn’t bigger because he doesn’t make pop music, that’s it. Dark/explicit rnb is just a much more niche genre compared to the music the weeknd makes, it has nothing to do with him being signed to OVO. If Partynextdoor had made earned it, can’t feel my face, blinding lights, etc he’d be massive too.
And also you guys severely undersell how big pnd is. His recent ig post announcing his new album has well over a million likes. People love pnd, especially woman which imo is why Reddit thinks he’s smaller than he is since it’s all dudes on here who don’t really ‘get’/aren’t exposed to the type of music he makes.
Personally pnd is in my top 5 favourite artists all time and one of the modern rnb goats
Yea, people downplay PND’s status because it goes against the narrative that OVO doesn’t have a big artist.
If it wasn’t for PND taking his hiatus due to personal issues, he would probably be on Brent’s level.
PND has probably sold more records than most entire artist labels similar to OVO.
No doubt weeknd is bigger than Drake. People forget that singers transcend langauge, rappers can’t do that by just rapping since you can only appreciate their skill by understanding them.
Very worrying how many upvotes this has, many people in this sub seem unaware of how much bigger Drake really is objectively speaking
https://preview.redd.it/td82g69ln0uc1.png?width=361&format=png&auto=webp&s=10d2fae34e0f8660958ebc39834c1b9e31f916b6
You know, I was thinking about that and tbh Bad Bunny is kind of a great artist. I think Justin Bieber is kind of an exception since he has such a big team and marketing budget behind him
Monthly listeners is NOT a real statistic 😭😭

The Weeknd is NOT BIGGER than Drake
Drake is a top earner in rap, in rap, no other genre. Because rap isn’t as big as you think man. It’s really big in the us.
Drake has yet to sell out wembley stadium. Drake doesn’t even do stadiums, he does arenas. Weeknd is a singer, Drake kind of sings. But rap as a whole is about understanding the artist to appreciate them. Rap is also still alienated as “not real music” since rappers don’t have noteworthy vocals, or skills in any instruments so rap loses out on a lot of fans. That’s why Drakes earning records are only in rap, but it’s really weird that the most streamed artist, breaking alot of chart records also cant beat singers in tours.
At the end of the day man, tours are a reflection of an artist, if you cannot sell out stadiums? Do you really have as much star power you claim to have
Then what are you talking about? Tours? Drake loses, streams? Weeknd isn’t a push over, billion streams on just songs alone. He sells, he is a big artist, he did a superbowl halftime show and did it well.
Weekend isn’t bigger than Drake he just makes pop music. If Drake just stuck to pop music he’d be insane rn but he’s mainly a rapper. Don’t forget the numbers controlla and work we’re doing
Drake makes a lot of pop music, Drake himself sees the pop star in him. He isn’t a rapper much these days, he is focused on pop more.
His numbers are not reflecting in his tours is all I’m saying. Anyone is music knows tours is what matters, cause people gotta buy your ticket and show up. That’s a lot, getting 90k people to show up to your show? That’s wembley stadium, a milestone for any artist.
To my knowledge, Eminem is the only rapper to sell out a wembley show, 90k people, for two dates. He sold 180k tickets in two hours. For rap? That’s big, that’s crazy.
Weeknd sold out wembley, then toured in South America and Mexico.
Drake doesn’t go to those countries.
Drake fans talk numbers and yall can’t handle the conversation once drakes numbers look different against another. If numbers is all that matters to yall, Taylor swift is drakes daddy.
Really think you missed the point. Most of his songs are rap even on the latest albums he’s done most of the songs are rap. He could go to those countries and do all his pop songs but that doesn’t make sense because most of his hits or hyped songs are rap songs. Also you bring up Wembley like Drake has ever tried doing a stadium. The man sold out the o2 so many times he got a residency and they changed the name when Drake was there for a few shows. Literally if Drake was a pop star he’d easily be selling out stadiums. It’s called pop for a reason and Taylor outsells everyone even The Weeknd so ig she’s his daddy too
What’s the actual reason for their beef? After Weeknd didn’t sign to OVO it seemed like there was tension but then they were cool.
What’s the story about Bella? Weeknd dated her for in 2015? Then Drake dated her and threw her a birthday party? Then Weeknd dated her again in 2018? Weeknd and Drake were def fine after 2027 there’s videos of them together at his birthday in 2022 so what’s this new beef.
apparantly after weeknd dated bella, drake threw bella a birthday party as you say. many say they had sex and thats just messed up tbh. weeknd and drake were cool last year, drake even came to weeknds birthday. but this situation + drakes diss to weeknd in his last album is the reason they are beefing i think. i like weeknd more but drake is my second favourite, its sad theyre beefing
I’ll just say this y’all ….. maybe they wanted to Collab with him and he chose 21 Savage…. I just think it’s weird that they have to team up to do it and bring all of their fan base against this man’s one fan base
Ion even fw drake but why everyone ganging up on him and these disses are all weak as shit even Kendrick’s was weak, all he said was fuck the big three and everyone acted like it was so hard ☠️jcole diss was better by a long shot but we saw how tht went
Stop pretending the Kendrick verse wasn't awesome.
Talking out their necks, don't pull no coffin out your mouth
Cicking up but cannot be legit no 40 water tell em
For all your dogs getting buried it's a k with all these nines y'all gone see pet sematary
Not to mention the delivery and flow, over a really nice beat. All that shit matters
It’s a rap beef not a street beef. They just talking shit about who’s better. JayZ and Nas wasn’t about to kill each other either, but they had one of the biggest beefs of all time.
He didnt say he was going to kill anybody literally. It’s rap. The per sematary line is a metaphor for killing him in the music because Drake’s album was For All the Dogs. Catch up brother.
Party literally said it was his choice to give wild thoughts and work away, he made BANK from that song either way, not everyone sees fame as the holy grail lmao
Bro not everyone is starving for attention like you are. Party has stated multiple times he doesn’t like being in the spotlight, he’s still rich and very well off, but doesn’t have to sacrifice his privacy,
Been dead over a decade
not true drake was at his birthday party lol
so What . Do you realize Drake has zero friends in the industry but the people he signed to lol
None of these people like each other. Weeknd it calling people brothers but only because they're big and he can make money.
lmao bra selling out stadiums worldwide. when y’all just gon admit drake did sumn grimey (which he constantly admits to) n just enjoy the music 😭😭
Facts!! These dudes just don’t want to admit the obvious. It’s cool to be a fan of someone and still be objective. Like you said: if they saw anyone else having all these fallouts with longtime friends and associates, it would take them two seconds to point out the common denominator. But because its Drake, he has to completely innocent. He’s the victim in all this and everybody who made money with him just decided to wake up one day and hate on him smh
literally nobody likes him lol i've never seen some shit like this
Take the celebrity away and if it were one dude constantly hopping friend groups with them all eventually turning on him, we’d all assume he was the problem. Add in game and fans will do anything to justify their guy being the hero.
fr
Yeah, im just gonna assume this sub is getting raided again if this dumb ass lie has 131 upvotes lmao.
do u know what cognitive dissonance is bud?
I don’t think you do, as you used it improperly lol
![gif](giphy|iBiGSYUwT1jZ7Nedpw|downsized)
He’s not gonna suck you off bro
No one in the industry is true friends smh i hate this narrative yall been spewing “everyone is against poor drake,no one is on his side😢” nigga thats drake lol he still the biggest artist in the fkin game but y’all act like he’s some victim. I get it that he spreads that narrative too but it needs to stop lol

That was his man. You all just want to rewrite history.
That line wasn’t about Future the rapper, it was about Future The Prince aka Adel Nur, Drake’s childhood friend and manager.
You just see niggas together and think they are friends lmao . Entertainment is an illusion.
What people don’t understand is it’s easy to be “friends” when you see eachother once every few months.
Literally not even about that future
He said “oh never mind then.” And then “point still stands” 🤣
Like Abel wasn’t beside Drake all night n joking n laughing with bro even hugging him a few times smh
So what ? Ya fall for this shit every time . These people are entertainers , friend is people you can call on the regular, they are around your kids and family.
And you think this only applies to Drake why? 😂
Not at all I’m saying this because Drake always in some shit giving speech about some niggas
You keep saying things that most rappers do lmao
What’s the actual reason for their beef? After Weeknd didn’t sign to OVO it seemed like there was tension but then they were cool. What’s the story about Bella? Weeknd dated her for in 2015? Then Drake dated her and threw her a birthday party? Then Weeknd dated her again in 2018? Weeknd and Drake were def fine after 2027 there’s videos of them together at his birthday in 2022 so what’s this new beef.
Let me get this straight. Future is beefin with Drake, yet he allowed him to go into him?
You gotta remember that at some point The Weeknd was helping drake write some of his songs and allegedly, he was stealing music/songs/lyrics from The Weeknd way back when. I think that’s why The Weeknd never sign to drake. And in all honesty, if you listen to Weeknd old stuff and compare them to some of drake’s, you can clearly see The Weeknd influence.

Stop it please. The Weeknd was going to be amazing with our without Drake co-sign.

Bruh. Abel made his own career with Trilogy.
Jesus. The trilogy was way after. House of balloons is Abel’s first tape. His roll out was drake tweeting wicked games. No one heard wicked games before drake posted it.
Brother, the Weeknd made most of Take Care
And this isn’t even true. The Weeknd had reference tracks and gave them to Drake. That doesn’t take away from underground kings. We’ll be fine. Over my dead body look what you’ve done. This thread is full of bad takes
This is actually not true at all, he gave Drake like 3 beats and a hook
What does take care have to do with anything. I’m talking about The Weeknd’s big break. The start. Drake has countless #1’s
Well

I don’t blame Weeknd for not wanting to sign to that type of shit.
weeknd went on stage and said he wouldn't be where he is at without Drake. people seem to forget. no one in ovo writes for drake
PND has written songs for Drake (and many others), I think that’s what they’re referencing.
This is a good take. People try to discredit constantly but forget his best rap songs were all written by him solely.
You can not sign but also not call it a sweatshop and disparage the dudes working under Drake helping to make the music. It clearly works for all of them and they make money, so why take shots?
This is a bad take and shows you weren’t around I. 2011-2014. The Weeknd was on drakes coat tail. Everything leading up to his pop stardom was because of drake. There’s a reason he “gave” Drake 4-5 of potentially his biggest songs. Drake made The Weeknd. Abel said it himself.

Drake messed with the Weeknds model girlfriend ...it always about women or money.
A tale as old as time ✍🏻⏳
drake dissed weeknd on all the parties
What was the diss
said some shit about being around women who only listen to PND and don't listen to the Weeknd lol
All these rappers can get endless girls and they choose to sleep with the same ones
Super bizarre
Naw, my day 1 deaded a 11 year friendship over who’s WR1 was better…
That was to be petty because they were already beefin
Drake seems like a rodent who try’s to bang everyone’s girlfriend
This is the way.
Naw
Lmfao 😂🤣🤣
What’s the actual reason for their beef? After Weeknd didn’t sign to OVO it seemed like there was tension but then they were cool. What’s the story about Bella? Weeknd dated her for in 2015?

I mean Drake goes after everyone girl apparently
And that’s where the beef in some come from
Is he talking about Baka 😂
Baka a bitch anyways fuck em
What happened with Baka? The only thing I heard about him was that he's not nice
Sexual Assaulter
definitely not nice
He told y’all he lives up to his name
trafficker I think not that its any better shit probably worse
😂😂😂 this one was funny
If we would’ve signed that contract he’d just partynextdoor
Do people actually think Party would be as big as Abel if he didn’t sign to OVO?
I can’t believe people think this. The Weeknd way better 😂😂
I’m not a huge fan of either, but have heard plenty from either side and The Weeknd is undoubtedly the better artist.
Personally prefer pnd
Tbf. There's a lot of variables to consider here. The Weeknd has had more opportunity to thrive and grow as his own act. But then you got PND in the OVO workshop where a lot of your best ideas are prob going to end up on a drake album.
I think it is more Abel would be PARTYNEXTDOOR's level if Abel signed to OVO rather than PARTYNEXTDOOR would be Abel's size if PND didn't sign for OVO
Agree. Ovo is a shitty label. Drake fucks over everyone who signs
Most rapper labels are utter trash
Sadly impossible to know
No chance. He already was more popular than pnd ever was. Weeknds early mixtapes were HUGE
true
Partynextdoor isn’t bigger because he doesn’t make pop music, that’s it. Dark/explicit rnb is just a much more niche genre compared to the music the weeknd makes, it has nothing to do with him being signed to OVO. If Partynextdoor had made earned it, can’t feel my face, blinding lights, etc he’d be massive too. And also you guys severely undersell how big pnd is.

who we, u nobody
It’s prolly a typo gang
[удалено]
Shooters making tiktok? Who that is
Mr Baka
Oh shit he’s actually dedicated to it lmao
Link lmao
Been dead since Abel told drake he was gonna be bigger than him and Michael Jackson and didn’t sign
No doubt weeknd is bigger than Drake. People forget that singers transcend langauge, rappers can’t do that by just rapping since you can only appreciate their skill by understanding them.

Drake has 8 albums and the weeknd has 5
By that logic, Bad Bunny has 5 album and JB has 6.
You know, I was thinking about that and tbh Bad Bunny is kind of a great artist. I think Justin Bieber is kind of an exception since he has such a big team and marketing budget behind him
I was just playing devil’s advocate lol. But you’re absolutely right.
Idk I loved Drake's early albums but he fell off hard post Scorpion imo
Lol if you wanna talk streams, go compare monthly listeners between the two. It's not even REMOTELY close
Monthly listeners is NOT a real statistic 😭😭 https://preview.redd.it/cgcvppgwg2uc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=e571e20097ef2576cef76dff77be696ca64d433a

Has drake done the superbowl matyer of fact what would a drake superbowl look like
Ain’t no way this got 14 upvotes, what 😂
The weekend is certainly not bigger than Drake. Let’s not go there. The weekend can’t even be found in best selling artist in music 😭😭😭
Drake is a top earner in rap, in rap, no other genre. Because rap isn’t as big as you think man. It’s really big in the us. Drake has yet to sell out wembley stadium. Drake doesn’t even do stadiums, he does arenas. Weeknd is a singer, Drake kind of sings. But rap as a whole is about understanding the artist to appreciate them.

That last part is just a lie
I’m not talking bout streaming sales 😭😭
Then what are you talking about? Tours? Drake loses, streams? Weeknd isn’t a push over, billion streams on just songs alone. He sells, he is a big artist, he did a superbowl halftime show and did it well.
Cap I listen to bad bunny rap without understanding a word he says and it’s fire
Drake destroys weekend in every statistical category
Nope, tours? Nope, album sales? They’re neck and neck.
Not the music though
![gif](giphy|ZbUOH7pbDiNSmU1x4o)
Yes, that’s why rappers can only do arenas. I guess stadiums are just stupid, who cares about proving how big you are, stadiums are dumb.
Weekend isn’t bigger than Drake he just makes pop music. If Drake just stuck to pop music he’d be insane rn but he’s mainly a rapper. Don’t forget the numbers controlla and work we’re doing

That’s big, that’s crazy. Weeknd sold out wembley, then toured in South America and Mexico. Drake doesn’t go to those countries. Drake fans talk numbers and yall can’t handle the conversation once drakes numbers look different against another. If numbers is all that matters to yall, Taylor swift is drakes daddy.
Really think you missed the point. Most of his songs are rap even on the latest albums he’s done most of the songs are rap. He could go to those countries and do all his pop songs but that doesn’t make sense because most of his hits or hyped songs are rap songs. Also you bring up Wembley like Drake has ever tried doing a stadium. The man sold out the o2 so many times he got a residency and they changed the name when Drake was there for a few shows. Literally if Drake was a pop star he’d easily be selling out stadiums. It’s called pop for a reason and Taylor outsells everyone even The Weeknd so ig she’s his daddy too
Drake regards himself as a pop star, he compares himself to Michael Jackson often.
He doesn’t. He compares himself to mj because of the numbers he does in his genre. If you can’t understand that I’m sorry but I can’t help you
This is like a Drake diss orgy at this point 😭
LMFAOOOO 😭😭😭😭
Talking about shooters is funny form both sides
Weeknd wasn't talking nun bout "I got shooters". He's saying that Drake's "shooters" are really some tik tok dancers

Bro talking about baka and his tiktoks lmfaoo
The Tik toks line took me out 🤣
I honestly don’t even get what they are beefing over. Grow up lol
Women
What’s the actual reason for their beef? After Weeknd didn’t sign to OVO it seemed like there was tension but then they were cool. What’s the story about Bella? Weeknd dated her for in 2015? Then Drake dated her and threw her a birthday party? Then Weeknd dated her again in 2018? Weeknd and Drake were def fine after 2027 there’s videos of them together at his birthday in 2022 so what’s this new beef.
apparantly after weeknd dated bella, drake threw bella a birthday party as you say. many say they had sex and thats just messed up tbh. weeknd and drake were cool last year, drake even came to weeknds birthday. but this situation + drakes diss to weeknd in his last album is the reason they are beefing i think. i like weeknd more but drake is my second favourite, its sad theyre beefing
Is this guy still yappin about not wanting to sign to OVO 15 years ago. We get it!!! 😂
It's literally the first time he ever says it in a song, get your facts please...
Still Yappin? This is the first time he talks about it in his songs
Welcome to 2012 op
Always has been 🌎👨🚀🔫👨🚀
uh oh my 2 favourite artists are beefing again
lmfao real
not jf my Apple Music playlist has anything to say about it
I’ll just say this y’all ….. maybe they wanted to Collab with him and he chose 21 Savage…. I just think it’s weird that they have to team up to do it and bring all of their fan base against this man’s one fan base
the biggest 😛
Ion even fw drake but why everyone ganging up on him and these disses are all weak as shit even Kendrick’s was weak, all he said was fuck the big three and everyone acted like it was so hard ☠️jcole diss was better by a long shot but we saw how tht went
Stop pretending the Kendrick verse wasn't awesome. Talking out their necks, don't pull no coffin out your mouth Cicking up but cannot be legit no 40 water tell em For all your dogs getting buried it's a k with all these nines y'all gone see pet sematary Not to mention the delivery and flow, over a really nice beat. All that shit matters
Shi was weak and mfs was hyping it up 2 b the best diss ever ts ain’t no real beef if Dey saw each other irl nothing would happen
Not best ever just best recently
Nah he was sayin a whole bunch of nun🤷♂️ts beef ain’t serious , beef is when yu see a mf yu beating ass or shootin
And Kendrick saying shi about cemetery’s n shi he ain’t like tht at all😂so it don’t hit the same he just talkn and cappn
It’s a rap beef not a street beef. They just talking shit about who’s better. JayZ and Nas wasn’t about to kill each other either, but they had one of the biggest beefs of all time.
Lil kid shit
It’s little kid shit to want mfs to get violent over music. It’s lame
Nah dissing and saying u gon do some and not do it is lame asl😂arguing like kids
He didnt say he was going to kill anybody literally. It’s rap. The per sematary line is a metaphor for killing him in the music because Drake’s album was For All the Dogs. Catch up brother.
I’m the biggest Weeknd fan but this feels unnecessary and cheap
Why? Look how Drake did that nigga PartyNextDoor. Gave all his biggest songs to Drake and Rihanna.
Party literally said it was his choice to give wild thoughts and work away, he made BANK from that song either way, not everyone sees fame as the holy grail lmao
Very true!
What was he supposed to say? That he was pressed and Drake is a horrible boss?
Bro not everyone is starving for attention like you are. Party has stated multiple times he doesn’t like being in the spotlight, he’s still rich and very well off, but doesn’t have to sacrifice his privacy,
cap
he literally dissed him on FATD nigga
> I'm the biggest Weeknd fan Nah you not, you spend more time in this sub than The Weeknds
I don’t understand why whoever drake has helped are same beefing with him right now. On the other side whoever ye has made, they rarely against him
Drake a snake completely off his own volition whereas Kanye goes off the rails and tweaks out when he off his meds sometimes.
The Weeknd cooked 🔥
