Remember that.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although Kardashian has denied the hookup rumors and even Ye confirmed that nothing happened between the two, he accused the &#8220;Nice for What&#8221; rapper of acting as if he had slept with his ex-wife. This inclusion in Drake&#8217;s song seems to be a direct taunt to Ye.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Drake and Ye&#8217;s Long-Standing Feud<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Drake and Ye have a history of beef between them, which was reignited in August 2021 when Drake took shots at Ye in his verse off Trippie Redd&#8217;s &#8220;Betrayal.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Ye retaliated by leaking Drake&#8217;s home address on social media, which led to further back-and-forth between the two rappers.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">They appeared to have buried the hatchet when they performed together at the &#8220;Free Larry Hoover&#8221; benefit concert in Los Angeles in late 2021, organized by J. Prince.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, this latest move by Drake seems to indicate that the feud is far from over.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The two rappers have had a tumultuous relationship for years, with Ye even claiming that Drake had slept with Kardashian&#8217;s mother, Kris Jenner, which was never acknowledged by the famed momager.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>                        <!-- <div class=\"container-c\"> -->\r\n                        <!-- <div class=\"row justify-content-between\"> -->\r\n                        <!-- <div class=\"col-post-800\"> -->\r\n                        <!-- start html -->\r\n                        <div class=\"blockquote-wapper\">\r\n                            <div>\r\n                                <span class=\"text_quot\">\r\n                                    <p>In the new track, Kardashian&#8217;s audio from the series finale of E!&#8217;s Keeping Up With the Kardashians is featured, where she tells her mother, Kris Jenner, &#8220;I didn&#8217;t come this far, just to come this far and not be happy.

However, with the release of &#8220;Rescue Me,&#8221; it seems that the animosity between the two artists may still be alive and well.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>A Brief History of the Tumultuous Relationship of the Two Artists<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Drake and Kanye West feud began on a subtle note when Drake released his hit single &#8220;Forever&#8221; featuring Kanye West, Lil Wayne, and Eminem in 2009.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although the song showcased the talents of all four artists, some fans and critics argued that Drake outshined Kanye on the track.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Around the same time, Drake expressed his admiration for Kanye&#8217;s work, but also hinted at a competitive relationship.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Throughout the early 2010s, Drake and Kanye continued to collaborate on various projects, such as Kanye&#8217;s &#8220;All of the Lights&#8221; remix and Drake&#8217;s &#8220;Pop Style.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, tensions were building under the surface. In a 2013 interview, Kanye admitted to being envious of Drake&#8217;s success and referred to him as a &#8220;rap god.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kanye also criticized Drake&#8217;s music and collaborations with brands like Nike and Apple, which further fueled the rivalry.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":155476,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[410,398],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-155474","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-art-and-culture","category-music"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/155474"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/18"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=155474"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/155474\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/155476"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=155474"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=155474"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/culture.org\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=155474"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
