Kanye West has claimed that Drake‘s bars hold little value in his latest tirade against the Toronto rap star.
Following up his “Like That (Remix)” on which he dissed Drizzy, West appeared on Justin Laboy’s The Download podcast to deliver his most scathing assessment of the 6 God yet.

Discussing Drake’s recent diss song “Push Ups,” Kanye said: “Every bar that Drake said means nothing anymore. Drop and give me — I ain’t nobody gonna drop and do shit. Your raps don’t mean shit, n-gga.”
Kanye also mentioned Universal Music Group CEO Sir Lucian Grainge, who he described as Drake’s “rich baby daddy” elsewhere in the interview: “Lucian, Drake — all this shit is artificial. Pack that boy up.”

He later accused Drizzy, a perennial chart powerhouse who is Spotify’s most streamed artist of all time, of rigging the game in his favor.
“It’s like we saving the world,” Ye said, referring to his, Kendrick Lamar, Future, Metro Boomin and Rick Ross‘ recent disses against Drake. “You take Drake and Lucian out, that alters everything. That’s such a control thing they have, the algorithm, the way they work together to fix the numbers.”

Kanye West also revealed on the podcast how his remix of Future and Metro Boomin’s “Like That” came to be: “Pluto called me and I went to the studio and we went through the creative process. Everybody was very, very excited about the elimination of Drake — not excited, we were energized.”
He also claimed there’s a spiritual reason behind his long-running rivalry with his “Pop Style” collaborator: “It’s like he sold his soul to the Devil to not be cool with me. This is his job to go against God.”
On “Like That (Remix),” which premiered over the weekend, Kanye took aim at Drake and Spotify’s most streamed artist of all time by rapping: “Y’all so out of sight, out of mind/ I can’t even think of a Drake line/ Play J. Cole, get the pussy dry.”
He also referenced Drake’s relationship with Universal and Lucian Grainge:“Where’s Lucian? Serve your master, n-gga/ You caught a little bag for your masters, didn’t ya?/ Lifetime deal, I feel bad for n-ggas.”

The remix was released in support of Kendrick Lamar in his feud with Drizzy, with Kanye saying at the beginning of the song: “We gon’ take this pussy n-gga out/ Yo, Dot, I got you.”
Kendrick himself has yet to speak since sparking Hip Hop’s “civil war” on the original “Like That,” but fans are eagerly awaiting a response to Drake’s one-two combo of “Push Ups” and “Taylor Made Freestyle,” the latter of which featured AI vocals from 2Pac and Snoop Dogg.
