During an Ebro in the Morning appearance on Friday, Hot 97's DJ Kast One confirmed that A$ASP Rocky's upcoming album is soon going to hit back at Drake. When Ebro questioned whether Rocky was still a target for Drake, Kast One replied with "Oh, he's going to be cemented on the list after this." This suggests that Rocky's response to Drake will be significant, and fans can expect an intense lyrical battle between the two rappers.
A$AP Rocky's upcoming album 'DON'T BE DUMB' is all set to drop on August 30. Kast One, who attended Rocky's listening party, hinted that the Harlem rapper would clap back at Drake at the Listening Party. Moreover, Drake’s rebuttal is not the only thing in his focus. DJ Kast One also added that he heard songs featuring Slick Rick and A$AP Rocky addressing current issues at the listening party, stating that Rocky's “list just keeps going on strong”.
This revelation has sparked excitement among fans eagerly awaiting Rocky's response to Drake's past diss tracks.

Drake and A$AP Rocky's beef began in November when Drake appeared to diss Rihanna on ‘Fear of Heights’. Rocky then took to Kid Cudi's ‘Wow’, shading Drake in January. Months later, in April, Rocky fired again on ‘Show of Hands’ rapping about bagging women and distrust. He mocked Drake's music, saying it "came and went".
Drake, of course, was nowhere near a truce. He then retaliated on ‘Family Matters’, dissing Rocky's rapping and fashion sense, which also happens to be his latest take on Rocky. He referenced Rocky's relationship with Rihanna, saying he "hit my BM first". Drake also mocked Rocky's music releases, saying they were only noticed when he models. The beef has been escalating ever since last year, with both rappers trading shots and personal jabs.
