21 Savage, the Atlanta-based rapper known for his hard-hitting lyrics and unapologetic swagger, has come to the defense of his fellow artist Drake after producer Metro Boomin seemingly took a shot at the Canadian superstar on social media.
Metro Boomin, who has worked closely with Drake in the past, recently posted a cryptic message on Twitter that many fans interpreted as a slight towards the “God’s Plan” rapper. The tweet read, “OVOSSS1 up 3″x.” While it’s unclear exactly what Metro Boomin meant by the tweet, the internet quickly lit up with speculation and theories about a potential feud between the two musical heavyweights.
In a surprising turn of events, 21 Savage stepped in to show his support for Drake, tweeting, “Don’t play wit my dawg @Drake.” The tweet, which was accompanied by a fiery emoji, served as a clear message to anyone trying to come for the Grammy-winning artist.
Fans of both artists were thrilled to see 21 Savage speak out in defense of Drake, with many praising him for standing up for his friend. Some even went as far as declaring the duo as “OVOSavage,” a nod to Drake’s OVO Sound record label and 21 Savage’s own Savage Mode brand.
While neither Drake nor Metro Boomin have directly addressed the situation, it’s clear that tensions are running high in the hip-hop world. As fans eagerly await a response from the parties involved, one thing is certain: 21 Savage is a loyal friend who will always have Drake’s back.
