Despite the fact that it was released over four years ago, Pusha T feels his diss song "still burns" Drake to this day.
During a recent interview with XXL, the Virginia rapper addressed his spat with Drizzy, claiming that the quantity of subliminal bullets he's fired back since then has left his opponent reeling.
“Every time I hear a subliminal in one of his songs, it just lets me know how deep it hurt him,” he said. “Because it’s been four years now. And we still talking about it. He is. I don’t. I’m cool. But every time it’s a subliminal, I’m like, yes. It burns. It still burns. It lets me know. I love it.”
Once asked if he believes Drake will ever clearly diss him, Push answered: “We should see. I don’t know what he’ll do. At this point, that’s contradictory. Would he jump out the window? And he wanna say I took it too far? Then he gon’ tell people. Tell the label. Tell J. Prince. My God. It’s a lot.” He added: “With all of that being said, it’s like I’m not interested anymore. I’m just really not.”
"The Story of Adidon" came after Pusha T's earlier diss track "Infrared," which appeared on his 2018 album DAYTONA. Drake responded soon with "Duppy Freestyle," followed by a $100,000 bill to G.O.O.D. Music and Def Jam for "promotional assistance and career reviving."
Drake most recently performed on Jack Harlow's "Churchill Downs" previously this year, rapping: "In an interview with The Breakfast Club, Pusha T addressed the lyrics, but disregarded them as unworthy of a reaction.
“I even heard that and it sounds old to me. Like, the flows sound old,” he said. “And then it’s like, even what is considered, like, the shots. It’s like, bro, after what I’ve done, like ‘the middleman’ talk and all that type of talk — that’s not scathing for me. I’m here to, like, burn down everything.”
