While Metro Boomin had some choice words for Drake amid his feud with Kendrick Lamar, it seems like he’s had a change of heart.
For this GQ’s Men Of The Year issue, Metro Boomin and Future were named Hitmakers Of The Year. During their interview, Metro Boomin cleared up some false speculations about his participation in Drake and K. Dot’s infamous beef.
Back in March, Metro Boomin and Future dropped “Like That,” which ignored the beef between Drake and Lamar.
“People really think we sat for two years, making two albums [to be] like ‘Yo, f**k this dude,” he said. “What kind of s**t is that? You really think we are going to spend that much time, effort, resources on just trying to get at somebody on an album? Blowing budgets on two albums — going over budget? That’s some serious hate. Neither one of us rock like that.”
Regardless of whether the attack was premeditated or not, there’s some tension between Drake and Metro Boomin.
“Me and Drake, we had a personal issue and, for the record, not over no girl or anything silly like that,” he clarified. “It was a personal issue that really hurt me and disappointed me.”
“Now I did have my moment online, which I do regret,” he added. “I should have been stronger than that. That was out of character for me. But at a certain point, it’s like, ‘I don’t rap, bro, so you’re going to just s**t on me on all of these songs…I’m not going to get in the booth, so I’m finna tweet at you.”
