\n\tIt was only a matter of time before Ye <\/a>\u2014 formerly known as Kanye West \u2014 hopped into the Drake <\/a>and Kendrick Lamar feud, with the 6 God at odds with several stars in the rap game. <\/p>\n

\n\tYeezy took aim at Drake over the weekend with the unofficial release of a remix<\/a> to Future and Metro Boomin\u2019s No. 1 hit \u201cLike That,\u201d<\/a> which found Ye reigniting his feud<\/a> by sniping at Drizzy. <\/p>\n

\n\tWest is set to appear on affiliate Justin LaBoy\u2019s The Download<\/em> <\/a>podcast, and clips of the appearance were released on Monday (April 22). In them, the embattled Chicago mogul \u2014 who has faced criticism for his hate speech<\/a> \u2014 explained why he felt \u201cenergized\u201d to hit the studio, with Drake in rap\u2019s crosshairs. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201c[Future] called me and I went to the studio and laid that. We went through the creative process of adding the chords and called the Hooligans out in London to get on the joint,\u201d Ye explained. \u201cEverybody was very, very energized about the elimination of Drake.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tYe brought up Universal Music Group CEO Lucian Grainge and Drake\u2019s reported massive deal<\/a> he made when re-signing with UMG in a landmark \u201cLeBron-sized\u201d agreement in 2022. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cWhere\u2019s Lucian? Serve your master, n\u2014a\/ You caught a little bag for your masters, didn\u2019t ya\/ Lifetime deal, I feel bad for n\u2014as\/ Y\u2019all so outta sight, outta mind\/ I can\u2019t even think of a Drake line,\u201d he raps. <\/p>\n

\n\tElsewhere in Ye\u2019s interview with LaBoy, West referred to Grainge as Drake\u2019s \u201cRich Baby Daddy\u201d \u2014 in a jab at The Boy\u2019s For All The Dogs<\/em> anthem. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cYou say rich baby daddy it\u2019s like Drake has a rich baby daddy named Lucian and Universal,\u201d he claimed. \u201cIt\u2019s like, \u2018My daddy got it. My daddy control the spins. My daddy got the DSPs.\u2019 Drake has a rich baby daddy named Lucian.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tDrake and the \u201cCarnival\u201d rapper have continued to feud on-and-off over the years, and even a brief reconciliation at the 2021 Free Larry Hoover <\/a>Benefit concert appears to have gone by the wayside. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIt cuts Drake\u2019s soul. It\u2019s like he signed his soul to the devil to not be cool with me. This is his job to go against God,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cLike That\u201d has topped the Billboard Hot 100 <\/a>for three consecutive weeks, and is the first rap song to debut atop the summit for that timespan since Drake\u2019s \u201cNice for What.\u201d Kanye\u2019s \u201cLike That\u201d remix isn\u2019t on streaming services, but is available for purchase on the Yeezy website. <\/p>\n
