Drake’s Movie References and Feud with Diddy: A Decade of Tension
Drake, the 6 God, is known for his love of movies and often incorporates references into his music. Recently, he took to Instagram to share screenshots from the 2015 film The Big Short, specifically highlighting a dialogue from Ryan Gosling’s character. The dialogue emphasized a clear distinction between the character and his peers, stating, “I never hung out with these idiots after work, ever. I had fashion friends.”
Fans speculated that Drake’s post was aimed at addressing the recent Diddy scandal, where rumors circulated about certain rappers participating in questionable activities. Drake, who has had a long-standing feud with Diddy dating back to 2014, has not publicly commented on the situation. The tension between the two escalated when Drake allegedly snatched a microphone from Diddy during a live performance and there were accusations of beat stealing.
Despite Diddy denying any physical altercation with Drake, the animosity between the two has been evident. Drake even took subliminal shots at Diddy in his 2016 song “4PM In Calabasas,” referencing Diddy’s flow and bars. The ongoing feud between the two hip-hop heavyweights has kept fans intrigued over the years.
