The hip-hop world is abuzz with the escalating feud between two of its heavyweight producers, Drake and Metro Boomin. As if Kendrick Lamar’s brutal victory against 6 God was not enough, there is a new but pre-existing beef taking shape once again. The tension between the two has been simmering for years, with each side trading subtle jabs and diss tracks. Stemmed from Boomin’s last year defeat to Drake's ‘Her loss’, the rapper and the producer are down one another’s throat once again, compelling other bigwigs to chip in. 

Although never directly, 21 Savage has always been a regular name popping up in the Metro Boomin versus Drake beef.

In light of his secondhand involvement, the British rapper took to his Instagram live stories to weigh in on the ongoing beef between the two producers. Making it clear that he has no particular sides to favor, Savage said, “Metro my brother and Drake my brother, they gon’ figure that shit out eventually,” while chatting with fans online. However, when it comes to dissing other rappers, 21 Savage is no less.   

Prior to this statement, the 'American Dream' rapper flunked his fans on the live session asking them not to bother him with questions on the beef between his ‘brothers’ “Don't keep coming on to my muthafu*king Live talking about no muthafuc*ing beef," said the rapper before affirming that they will soon make amends. The rapper has been a frequent Metro Boomin collaborator while also having significant stakes in Boomin’s most hated Drake track, ‘Her Loss’.

Metro Boomin and Drake's ties turned sour when Drizzy blurred out Boomin's name from 21 Savage’s then-released album 'American Dream', on his Instagram stories. Following the same, the 'Heroes and Villains rapper claimed he did not receive proper recognition while Drake rode on his fan-made hype and popularity. The dispute escalated into a public feud, with both parties trading accusations and insults on social media.

Metro Boomin stated he was underpaid and undervalued, while Drake seemingly dissed him in a freestyle rap. In a thread of X tweets, the furious producer called out the rapper writing, “now go make another song telling more lies...” earlier this month. The beef has left fans divided, with some siding with Drake's commercial success and others backing Metro Boomin's production prowess.
