    Drake has been revealed as a lyricist and composer on Kanye West’s ye song “Yikes.” Hot 97 host Peter Rosenberg previously claimed that Drake penned the song’s hook on the air. Now, that information has been confirmed by updated credits found on Tidal. There are 11 credited lyricists in total, including Mike Dean, Ayub Ogada, and James Mbarack Achieng. (“Yikes” samples the 1976 Black Savage song “Kothbiro.”)

    Kanye was previously credited on Drake’s 2016 diss trackTwo Birds, One Stone.” The song took aim at Kid Cudi and Pusha-T. The latter finally responded to Drake on “Infrared,” the closing track on his recent Daytona album. Drake took aim at both Pusha and Kanye on his response, “Duppy Freestyle. Pusha later fired back at Drake with his vicious track, “The Story of Adidon.”

    So the best song on the album is because of Drake. Sounds about right. That’s the only song I still play from ye.

    Why does push need to address this? It's Kanye not him. Drake needs to address adidon.

    Isn’t he taking a DNA test or some s---? I’m sure we’ll find out eventually if it’s his kid. Push should address it because that’s what sparked all this s--- lol. I’m just interested in hearing the logic behind being critical of Drake & not Kanye. He’s done a s--- ton of interviews, I don’t know how no one has asked him this yet tbh.

    I thinks drakes goons should meet Pushas goons in a alley way and just fight until gun shots go off. Then upload it to YouTube for our entertainment.

    He has some goons that threw bottles at Chris Brown at a bar, right? I heard he actually has some people that’ll f--- you up in his circle. Probably 6’8 bodyguards im not sure. Regardless, I would bet money they’d beat the s--- outta 45 year old Pusha T

    The difference is Kanye credits all the people who help and drake hands over a complete verse to meek that he didn’t write with no mention of Quentin

    also completely irrelevant but if you look at drake’s gram he ain’t post once for like 8 days around christmas lol
