Kanye West publicly conveyed his apologies to Drake for their longstanding rivalry on X (formerly known as Twitter) on Wednesday.
In this context, he elucidated that he had revisited an archival video featuring the Toronto-based artist displaying his lyrical notebooks, which subsequently instigated a sense of regret regarding their discord. Consequently, Kanye West expressed his desire for Drake to deliver a eulogy at his funeral upon his eventual demise.
“I SAW A VIDEO OF DRAKE WALKING THROUGH HIS HOUSE AND SHOWING HE HAD A LIBRARY OF RYHME BOOKS,” West began. “MAN I WISH I COULD HAVE SEEN AND REMEMBERED THIS WHEN MY JEALOUSY OVERTOOK ME… I LOVE DRAKE. IMA SAY THIS WHEN I DIE I NEED YOU TO SPEAK AT ME FUNERAL.” Fans celebrated the move in the replies. “We want a collab album of both of the goats,” one user wrote. Another added: “And this is why you’re iconic ye. Jealousy to love story arc? That’s the redemption arc we all need lol. Libraries of rhyme books are cool but owning up to your emotions is cooler.” Others predicted their relationship will turn sour again soon enough. “We gone see this n***a crash out on Drake before summertime,” one user wrote.
Although Drake and Kanye West have clashed multiple times throughout the years, their animosity reached its zenith in 2021 as both artists prepared for the launch of their respective musical projects, Certified Lover Boy and Donda.
Following a series of disparaging remarks exchanged within their albums, they ultimately resolved their differences to collaborate in a concert aimed at supporting Larry Hoover.
However, this reconciliation proved ephemeral as they soon resumed their contentious relationship. In 2024, Kanye hinted at a remix of Future, Metro Boomin, and Kendrick Lamar’s composition, “Like That.”
Expressing an apology to Drake is merely one among numerous sensational posts Kanye West has disseminated on social media in recent times.
He has encountered significant criticism for articulating his endorsement of Adolf Hitler, self-identifying as a Nazi, provoking Taylor Swift, and engaging in various other controversial acts.
Furthermore, he commenced utilizing his Yeezy merchandise website to market t-shirts emblazoned with swastikas.
