Lil Yachty Unfollows Drake Amid Rumors That Their Leaked Single Will Move Forward w/o His Involvement
Looks like there’s some tension brewing between Lil Yachty and Drake.
Internet users noticed that the “One Night” rapper is no longer following his Canadian colleague amid claims that Drake recently dropped Lil Yachty from a collab they did.
Culture commentator DJ Akademiks first reported on the matter during a recent livestream. He stated that while his information didn’t come from Drake, real name Aubrey Graham, 37, himself, he has heard rumors that the “Hotline Bling” rapper plans to officially release the song “Supersoak,” originally recorded as a collab with Lil Yachty, real name Miles Parks McCollum, 26, and an accompanied music video without the latter’s involvement.
DJ Akademiks noted that the situation was “confusing” considering Drake gave the song to Lil Yachty to use for his “Concrete” project. It seems things didn’t go as planned, however, as Drake is said to be in the process of an official release of the record minus Yachty’s verse. As we recently covered the rap star faced backlash after admitting that he leaked the song to famed streamer Kai Cenat despite outright opposition from content creator Mr. Hotspot, whose song the record samples. The content creator refused to clear the Yachty, Drake collab due to a shift in his spiritual life and online persona.
Drake never addressed the matter publicly and continues to be silent amid growing speculations that he and Yachty have fallen out. To add fuel to the rumors, it was also noticed that Yachty no longer follows Drake’s Instagram. Drake is still following him though, for the time being.
