It’s Horror Hours all over again. A little more than a month after the release of For All the Dogs, Drake released the third EP in his series this morning, For All the Dogs Scary Hours Edition. Drake seemed to be carrying a grudge and was recording in the days after releasing his most recent studio album. Throughout the six-song album, Drizzy discusses his problems with Pusha T, Kanye West, and Joe Budden—the Canadian rapper sending a furious direct message to Budden after the latter’s critique of For All the Dogs.
Ye’s last conversation with Drake was largely pleasant, but in “Red Button,” the Canadian musician starts off by expressing his dissatisfaction with what he perceives to be a false friendship. He raps, “Every time Yeezy called a truce, he had my head inflated/ Every time you needed me for a boost, I never hesitated.” “Thinkin’ we gon’ finally get over this and go to levitatin’/Realize that this was all planned.”
On “Stories About My Brothers,” Drake, however, keeps going after Kanye, alluding to the Chicago musician’s previous barefoot walks. HipHopDX also observes that he seems to be referencing Kanye’s verse on ScHoolboy Q’s “THAT part,” in which he compares himself to Kobe Bryant. He utters, “I can’t wait for the day that you decide to retire your stuff. That’s how you’re going to find out you’re not Kobe Bryant to us [laughs]. Man, you not Kobe Bryant to us… at all. Taking off the sneakers because you tired of tying ’em up.”
He goes in on Joe Budden in another part of the song. “I’m on top of the mountain, these are still down at base camp, they’re planning their expedition. Imagine us receiving our validation from an ex-musician looking for recognition. It’s the same story, they heckle in repetition.” Drake took a surprising aim at a 6ix9ine, even though we may have expected him to shoot both Joe Budden and Ye. “If you’re the kind of person who gets charged, go to the deposition and act like the rapper whose nаme is the position.”
Drake has been trying to rekindle the bаttle ever since he gave up on Pusha T during their lyrical wаr, probably in an effort to atone for his mistakes. But Push has often stated that he was not interested in rekindling that feud. However, Drake addressed Pusha T’s nasty criticism on Noah “40” Shebib on “The Story Of Adidon” in “Wick Man,” saying, “Man, I remember was joking ’bout some tick, tick/ And now that rapper broke as, that boy a statistic.
