Kanye West Apologizes To Drake On Twitter After New Diss Track
Sept. 6 2018, Updated 5:20 p.m. ET
Kanye West may be known for raging out on Twitter every now and again, but he totally switched things up on Wednesday when he extended a seemingly sincere apology to Drake after producing Pusha T’s explosive diss track against him. Read on for the latest.
Watch!
It’s been three months since Pusha T dropped his savage diss track, the Kanye-produced “The Story of Adidon,” which unveiled the bombshell that Drake had a secret child (now known as his son Adonis), and ignited a major feud between the two rappers.
And apparently Kanye has given himself lots of time to think about all the drama that has unfolded since then and has now come forward to apologize for not stepping in sooner to end the animosity. In a series of remorseful tweets posted this morning, the rapper offered to make amends.
He started by tweeting a pic of Drake in concert and even praised his latest work. “Sending good energy and love to Drake and family and crew I haven’t seen the show in person, but the images look incredible online. I understand where the confusion started,” he began before getting into the drama at hand.
The 41-year-old first apologized for trying to step all over Drake’s album release date: “Let me start by apologizing for stepping on your release date in the first place … We were building a bond and working on music together, including squashing the issues with Cudi at our office.”

He continued by blaming his hectic schedule and the debacle where he proclaimed "slavery was a choice." “When I put the dates up I was a bit ramped up doing 25 tweets a day TMZ happened shortly after...”
“Because we spoke about doing “Lift Yourself” together I should have given you the opportunity for us to do this together before I released it,” he went on.
“Since we were building as friends and brothers I should have spoken to Pusha about the Quentin Miller bar. There should have been no songs with my involvement that had any negative energy towards you.”
He made a point to say that he keeps children out of all beefs, writing, “I did not have any conversations about your child with Pusha. I don’t play with the idea of people’s children after I spoke to Wiz a few years earlier.”
But Kanye did write that he understood where Pusha T was coming from, though: “I understand Pusha’s issues as a man. If someone mentions your fiancée, men go mask off. I’ve done the same myself at times. I love you and I love Pusha and we all have an admiration for each other’s craft.” He concluded with this, before adding that he plans to check out Drake’s show.
