AceShowbiz - Is Drake just throwing shade at Taylor Swift? Fans are convinced that the "Certified Lover Boy" is dissing the "All Too Well" hitmaker after the emcee covered up her name with a series of emojis on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
On Monday, November 14, Drizzy shared his reaction after he and 21 Savage debuted an impressive 8 entries in the top 10 on the Billboard Hot 100 for songs off their joint album "Her Loss". However, they missed out on the No. 1 spot, which was occupied by Taylor's "Anti-Hero" for the third week.
Drake is seemingly feeling some type of way about not getting another No. 1. He posted a screenshot of the top 10 and completely blocked out Taylor's name with a bunch of emojis including a man getting a head massage, the popcorn bucket, eight balls and laughing with tears face.
Interestingly, Drake didn't cover Sam Smith and Kim Petras' "Unholy", which sits at No. 10 on the chart. "@21savage congrats my brother," the 36-year-old Canadian star captioned the post.
Though Taylor has not addressed Drake's pettiness, Swifties did take notice. "drake being petty towards taylor because she blocked him on the charts… like bffr it was YOUR decision to release your album right after hers," one person tweeted.
"when [bad bunny] broke drake's records he congratulated him. when taylor broke his records and stayed at number 1, he threw a mini temper tantrum. he clearly hates women. megan thee stallion and now taylor dude reevaluate your life fr @Drake," another chimed in, referring to Drake's song "Circo Loco", on which Drizzy allegedly accused Hot Meg of lying about being shot by Tory Lanez in the 2020 incident.
Someone else said, "drake should know better than to make an enemy of taylor because we all know she'll find a way to make sure the only certification his next album gets is riaa triple cardboard." A separate person simply noted, "this is so childish, oh my god."
Prior to this, there weren't any known issues between the two. In fact, they even reportedly teamed up on an unreleased diss track aimed at Kanye West. Taylor also rapped along to Drake and Future's "Jumpman" in a 2016 commercial for Apple Music.
