Drake Publicly Feuds with The Weeknd During Livestream with xQc
In a recent and highly publicized incident, Canadian rapper Drake has reignited his long-standing feud with fellow Canadian artist The Weeknd. On Sunday, November 24, Drake appeared on a livestream with popular Canadian gamer xQc, where the tension between the two musicians became evident.
During the livestream, when The Weeknd’s song “Starboy” started playing in the background, Drake quickly intervened, demanding that the song be switched off. He stated, “You have to switch this song off. We’re real 6ixers. … We don’t listen to that.”
Drake then requested xQc to play some music by blink-182, saying, “Play some blink-182. I wanna hear that real shit.” This exchange highlights the ongoing rift between Drake and The Weeknd, who have a complex history dating back to the early stages of their careers. The Weeknd had gained significant exposure through his contributions to Drake’s 2011 album *Take Care*, but their relationship soured when The Weeknd decided to sign with Republic Records instead of Drake’s OVO label.
The feud has been simmering for some time, with The Weeknd taking veiled shots at Drake earlier this year during a collaboration with Future and Metro Boomin. The latest public spat has garnered significant attention on social media, with fans and observers weighing in on the situation.
