In a surprising turn of events, Atlanta rapper 21 Savage kicked out producer Metro Boomin from his recent Instagram Live session after he called him ‘OVO Savage’ in reference to his ongoing beef with Drake.
The drama unfolded on Sunday night when 21 Savage was hosting a live stream on Instagram, interacting with fans and sharing updates on his music. Metro Boomin, who has worked closely with 21 Savage in the past, joined the live stream and jokingly referred to him as ‘OVO Savage’, a nod to Drake’s record label OVO Sound.
However, 21 Savage did not find the joke amusing and immediately asked Metro Boomin to leave the live stream. The rapper seemed visibly irritated by the comment and made it clear that he did not appreciate being associated with Drake, especially considering their past beef.
The tension between 21 Savage and Drake dates back to 2017 when the two artists exchanged diss tracks, with 21 Savage accusing Drake of stealing his flow. Since then, the two have not collaborated on any music and have kept their distance from each other in the industry.
Fans of 21 Savage were quick to react to the incident on social media, with many praising the rapper for standing up for himself and setting boundaries with his collaborators. Some even speculated that the beef between 21 Savage and Drake may be far from over, given the rapper’s strong reaction to Metro Boomin’s comment.
As of now, neither 21 Savage nor Metro Boomin have publicly addressed the incident, but it is clear that tensions are running high between the two artists. It remains to be seen if they will be able to reconcile and move past this latest disagreement, or if their professional relationship will be affected moving forward. Stay tuned for more updates on this developing story.
