Drake VS...Nicki Minaj's Ex Boyfriend

Chris Brown and Soulja Boy aren’t the only two hip-hop artists who could be entering the ring. After Meek Mill’s breakup with Nicki Minaj, he challenged Drake to step into the ring with him. Meek and Drake have had a longstanding feud which has provided the blogosphere with lots to talk about and some classic memes, most of which clowned Meek Mill. Drake and Nicki started off as frequent collaborators but in recent years, Minaj has been noticeably absent from Drake’s albums. Both Drake and Mill appeared on Minaj’s most recent album The Pinkprint.

While Meek Mill holds onto his street credibility, Drake has become a bona fide superstar, with Views taking second place on Billboard’s top selling albums of 2016, only behind Adele. In true superstar form, Drake has refused to acknowledge Meek Mill’s request to fight. A source close to Drake referred to Mill as a “joke of a rapper,” and threw further shade by saying that “Drake is too nice of man to kick a dog when he’s down.” Ouch.


It’s safe to say that we won’t be seeing a brawl between these two guys. Drake is from Canada, and apparently they are bringing up their boys a bit differently then here in the States. I commend Drake for understanding that he doesn’t have to prove anything when you’re successful. An elephant never swats at flies. If Drake was to acknowledge Meek’s nonsense, that would give Meek the validation of being on the same level as Drake. Some folks are just on a different level.
