The music industry tends to retain full-circle moments. Having witnessed the counter innumerable times, the harmony among credible artists has never gone out of style. Similarly, when the world was awaiting the return of the rapper from Atlanta hailing rumors of prominent collaborators, the industry took a roundabout turn with Drake’s single featuring him. Or, more clearly, the likes of him.
Only recently, the world was counting tweets of announcements from various rappers all along for partnering with Kanye West. However, it appears that the one to take the bids on mentioning Ye first was Drake himself.

While for some fans the mention could have been just the right thing, for most of them it turned out to be a clash of singers.

Although the fandom reeks of their influence, it also gives a sneak peek into their former relations. As the clash of GOATS takes up space for the thread, some appreciated Drake’s groundedness for mentioning Ye. But that was not the case for the ones speaking against Ye.

While some clearly took the jibe at Kanye West’s diligence of not mentioning Drake, it also speaks largely of how closely his moves are on tracks. Given both the artists deal with a fandom larger than most, the collision was almost inevitable. However, this clash is not the ending line of the artists’ equation themselves. Therefore, to keep the fan’s rage synonymous with theirs would be undermining the two.
