New Drake Track Disses Meek Mill and the Phillies

The feud between Drake and Philly rapper Meek Mill is heating up after Meek tweeted last week that Drake uses a ghostwriter to write his raps. It took a while for Drake to respond, but in the past 24 hours he’s released two tracks dissing Meek Mill. The first, “Charged Up,” is more of a speculated response to Meek’s accusations. It was released on Drake‘s show on Apple Music‘s Beats 1 radio station,”OVO Sound Radio.”

The second track, “Back to Back Freestyle,” is a more overt dig—and he goes after Meek’s fiancé Nicki Minaj. “You love her then you gotta get a world tour,” Drake raps. “Is that a world tour or your girl’s tour? I know that you gotta be a thug for her. This ain’t what she meant when she told you to open up more.”

If that wasn’t enough, Drake rubs more salt in the would by kind of going after the Phillies. As Deadspin points out, the image Drake used on the Soundcloud-released track shows Toronto Blue Jays player Joe Carter whooping it up right after his team won the World Series over the Phillies in 1993. In case you’re not keeping score, Drake is from Toronto and Meek is from Philly, so the burn is pretty well thought out and hilariously relevant. Listen to the track below:
