Apparently, we're not getting that rumored Taylor Swift and Drake tune quickly. Drake seemingly shaded Taylor's latest 'Midnights' success, leaving the Swifties in a tizzy.
On Monday, Billboard launched the High 10 to the Scorching 100, with Drakeoccupying eight of the ten spots, because of his and 21 Savage‘s collab album, Her Loss. Followers would have thought that Drake, 36, and Savage, 30, almost pulled off the clear sweep for those who checked out Champagne Papi’s Instagram Story. Drake posted the Billboard IG put up to his Story however used a sequence of emojis to blot out the artist and tune at No. 1: Taylor Swiftand “Anti-Hero.” “@21savage congrats my brother,” added Drake.
Whereas some would possibly take this as Drake being cheeky, he didn’t blot out Sam Smith and Kim Petras’ names since their tune, “Unholy,” was at No. 10. Plus, followers claimed that Drake apparently stopped following Taylor (whereas others claimed he was nonetheless following her on IG). “Drake being petty in direction of Taylor as a result of she blocked him on the charts… like bffr it was YOUR determination to launch your album proper after hers,” tweeted one fan.
“That is so humorous lmao. Drake didn’t say something when his followers have been bullying Megan Thee Stallion this complete week, however I knew karma was gonna come for him,” tweeted one other fan. “I’m glad individuals can see how a lot of a LOSER this man is and that taylor was the one humiliating that ego.” “I'm completely not a Taylor Swift fan however can we deal with how corny it's Drake went out of his technique to block her identify and tune above his on the Billboard listing,” added one other.
Including to the shade, Vinylz – the producer of 21 Savage and Drake’s “Wealthy Flex” – chimed in. After sharing @chartdata’s tweet about how “Wealthy Flex” earned “the most important debut US Gross sales week for any tune this 12 months, with 445k models offered in its first week,” he shared the Billboard World 200. “The world is aware of what the actual #1 tune is,” he added. “No methods on this facet.”
This would possibly imply that the rumored collaborative Taylor-Drake diss monitor received’t see the sunshine of day. Forward of the discharge of Midnights, The Solarran a report claiming that they teamed up in 2018 to document a joint monitor that geared toward then-couple Kanye “Ye” West and Kim Kardashian. Drake had his beef with Ye, and Taylor’s feud with Ye and Kim over “Well-known” is properly documented. The publication reported that Taylor discovered the tune lately, and whereas she is “completely over the entire thing now however that is one which followers will wish to hear.” If the monitor is actual, it would return into the vaults – or into the bin after this latest Billboard shade.
