Drake released his eighth album titled 'For All the Dogs.'

“Why they make it sound like I’m still hung up on you? / That could never be / Gyal can’t ruin me / Better him than me / Better it’s not me,” Drake sings, seemingly alluding to the public’s perception that the 36-year-old still thinks about his two-month fling with the “Umbrella” vocalist.

Fans then theorized that he referenced Rihanna’s Anti album and its “S-- With Me” song, as the lyrics read, “I’m anti, I’m anti / Yeah, and the s-- was average with you / Yeah, I’m anti ’cause I had it with you … / And I had way badder b------- than you, TBH.”

After listening to the new single, the public took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to bash the musician for his criticism of the mother-of-two.

“Drake dissing Rihanna on ‘Fear of Heights’ is a waste man move,” one person penned, while another added, “Drake still crying about Rihanna seven years later — we’re tired.”

“Rihanna ended her relationship with Drake years ago. Since then she’s started her own makeup line, had a family, and got nominated for an Oscar. I promise you she’s not worried about that man,” one user pointed out in the Super Bowl performer’s defense.
