Kanye West Defends Drake’s New Song ‘Gimme A Hug’

Kanye West‘s taking a break from his standard on-line tirades to have fun a fellow rapper … ‘trigger the self-proclaimed “Nazi” simply shouted out Drake‘s new tune.

The rapper took to X Saturday to laud reward on Drizzy … particularly his new “Gimme A Hug” monitor — the tune the place Drake touched on his rap feud with mortal hip hop enemy Kendrick Lamar.

Ye wrote, “Gimme a hug is unimaginable. Sheeeeeeesh” — not precisely probably the most descriptive evaluate … however, undoubtedly a constructive one from the controversial rapper.

Value noting … Drake is Jewish — and, clearly Kanye has made notable antisemitic feedback over time, so it is slightly shocking he is displaying help for the actor-turned-rapper right here.

West — who’s headed toward divorce along with his spouse Bianca Censori — has posted just about nonstop on X since his shocking Grammy’s appearance with a principally bare Bianca … together with posts the place he is described himself as a “Nazi” and one other hers the place he referred to as for Diddy‘s release from jail.

Elon Musk in the end censored Ye’s account … however, not due to the antisemitic tweets — as a substitute, it is as a result of Ye was posting too much pornography.

BTW … whereas “Gimme A Hug” has a response to Kendrick on it — the response to the response was fairly lukewarm. Many felt it didn’t live up to the scorched earth nature of “Not Like Us.”

DJ Akademiks says Drake informed him the album’s not in regards to the Kendrick beef … which can clarify why he appears to skip over it so rapidly within the tune.
