Drake kicked off his 30th birthday by dropping four new tracks from his newly announced More Life project - but his special day's marred with controversy.

One of the new tracks, "Two Birds One Stone", appears to take aim at Kid Cudi's current struggle with mental illness. Cudi recently entered rehab for "depression and suicidal urges".

Drizzy doesn't mention Cudi by name, but he does take shots at the 'Man On The Moon' - Man On The Moon: The End Of Days is the name of Cudi's debut album.

You were the Man On The Moon,
Now you just go through your phases,
Life of the angry and famous...

Still never been on hiatus,
You stay xanned and perked up,
So when reality set in you don't gotta face it...

Drake and Cudi haven't seen eye to eye lately - this isn't exactly a bolt from the blue if it is a Cudi diss track, but it's definitely a step too far.

I need yall to know I got so many haters within the industry and these clowns know Im bout to crush their entire existance.
