What did Kanye West say?
Controversy is nothing new to Kanye West. Conflict has overtaken his entire 'Vultures' launch, and the production has had a difficult cycle of promotion.
Nevertheless, 'Carnival,' a song by Kanye West, peaked at number one on the Billboard Hot 100.
However, West heated things up on Instagram amid all of this success, slamming Drake for allegedly snatching Lil Durk away from the 'Vultures' launch back in February 2024.
In a lengthy, Instagram post, Kanye West first celebrated his song’s success and said, “Rich Ty Carti and the supports that stood by us through everything, this #1 is for you. It’s for the people that won’t be manipulated by the system."

Then, West went on a tirade, criticizing everyone in sight, including Drake, Hailey Beiber, the Daily Mail, and Adidas, which was indicted with selling “fake” Yeezys.
“F**k Adidas and everybody who works there or with them,” he continued. “Anyone who goes to school with anyone who’s parents work at Adidas, just know they tried to destroy me…”
Regarding the Drake beef, West slammed the rapper for “taking” Lil Durk away “right at the beginning of the Vultures roll out," thus reigniting their longstanding feud.
“I’ll come back to ya’ll if I think of more f**k you’s,” he added.
A verse that Lil Durk had recorded for Kanye West's song 'Vultures' was later removed. A revised version was released in November 2023 in response to fan uproar, and it later became a part of a Vultures Pack. The rapper has been conspicuously absent from West's album listening events, and the Lil Durk-starring version isn't on the official 'Vultures' album release.
What was Drake's response?
On Wednesday, March 13 morning, Drake shared a post as his Instagram Story that appears to be a direct response to West saying "F**k Drake" in his vitriolic IG caption.
In the clip, which Drake included in his story, a confused 50 Cent responds to being dissed by Floyd Mayweahter back in 2014.
"I woke up and I look at the computer and the computer said Floyd said f**k T.I., f**k Nelly, f**k 50. I'm like, what he say f**k me for?" he hilariously questions in the video.
