AceShowbiz - Drake has decided to stop following Kanye West on Instagram. The "In My Feelings" hitmaker reportedly hit the unfollow button on the "Donda" artist's page after five years following him amid their longtime feud.
The 34-year-old Canadian-born rapper was caught making a big social media move against Ye on Monday, October 18. Fans noticed that the "Certified Love Boy" artist unfollowed Ye after Ye received approval from a Los Angeles judge to change his name due to "personal reasons" and debuted his new haircut on his Instagram account.
Though so, Drake apparently still wants to keep up with Ye slightly as he's still following Ye's fan page called @KanyeDoingThings. As for Ye, he's currently only following people with black screens as their avatars and since the former "Degrassi: The Next Generation" star has his son Adonis as his picture, he's not being followed by Ye.
Drake and Ye have been exchanging snubs over the years. Drake's social media gesture became the latest saga in their ongoing cold war. In September, following the release of "Certified Lover Boy", Drake leaked Ye's unreleased Andre 3000 a.k.a. Andre Benjamin collaboration, "Life of the Party", on which Ye called out Drake.
Ye had been dealing with the rollout of his latest album "Donda", which reportedly was rushed due to his desire to outshine Drake. For the record, it was Drake who reignited the beef with Ye as he threw shade at the "N***as in Paris" rapper on Trippie Redd's new song "Betrayal".
Ye then seemingly hit back at Drake by posting a screenshot of a group chat of eight people where he added Pusha T. In the chatbox, the estranged husband of Kim Kardashian could be seen sending an image of Joaquin Phoenix as Joker. Alongside the snap, he wrote, "I live for this. I've been f**ked with by nerd a** jock n***as like you my whole life. You will never recover. I promise you."
Coming to Ye's defense, Consequence tweeted, "F**k a Betrayal. It's the Disrespect for me dawg. Wit Trippie Redd Shotgun." The 44-year-old MC then added, "Respect my team. It's party time."
After Ye responded to Drake's diss on "Betrayal", the Atlanta native leaked Drizzy's Canada home address. At the time, he posted an image of his nemesis' address on his Instagram page. He later quickly deleted the photo, though not before his followers took a screengrab of his sneaky post.
Following Ye's unexpected move, Drake seemed to be unbothered. Taking to his Instagram Story, the "God's Plan" rapper shared a video that saw him chuckling as he was riding in a car with the top down at night.
