That Kanye West and Drake are not exactly best friends has been known for some time. They like to express their differences publicly. So far they have not talked in detail about the origin of their dispute. This has changed now.
Drake was a guest at "The Shop", a show by basketball superstar LeBron James. There he spread his view of things on the feud with West. Drake's message: He felt betrayed by West. This questioned him about his album "Scorpion", for example after the release date - and concealed that he works on a record himself.
West had generously done it, played him the beat of the song "Lift Yourself" and said that Drake could use it - later West released the song himself.
West also invited him to Wyoming - supposedly to work on music for Drake. "I went there and it ended up that we spent most of the time working on his music, collecting ideas for him."
He also spoke to West about personal matters, Drake said. About the relationship with the mother of his son; Paternity had not been known until then. "I told him that I have problems with my son's mother," Drake now told James. A little later, the news of Drake's paternity had become public. In addition, West's album release was suspiciously close to the release of Drake's "Scorpion".
That's when he realized that Drake said that "this guy is trolling me." "It was a manipulative 'I want to break you' thing." That's why he decided to keep his distance. It will be interesting to see what West's version of the events looks like.
