Wiley's not happy with Drake

15 April 2019, 10:06 | Written by Cerys Kenneally

Wiley has taken his beef with Drake to a new level after the Canadian rapper called out the grime emcee on his BBC Radio 1Xtra co-host show on Saturday night.

On Saturday (13 April) Drake hosted the late night rap show with Tiffany Calver, who has been supporting Drake on his Assassination Vacation tour.

During the show, Drake spoke about Wiley calling him a "culture vulture", "I’ll never understand how supporting somebody’s song or even going a step further and giving somebody a song or linking up. I’ll never understand how that’s not viewed as something admirable but I guess people have their own outlook on it."

After the Canadian rapper added, "I just had to talk about it because it’s bothering me. But yeah, I didn’t like that. It’s Wiley that said that, I’ll just say his name because that was some goofy shit."

In response to Drake's comments about the Godfather of Grime, Wiley did a Wiley and decided to escalate the situation by mocking him in a short video on his Instagram story and calling him a "bumbahole".

Drake finished his seven-date residency at London's O2 Arena last week, which saw him turn the O2 into the O3 - quite literally - and bring out a multitude of rappers, incluing Future, J Hus, Dave, J. Cole, Giggs, Steff London, Krept & Konan, and many more.

Last week Toronto rock group Dilly Dally gave Drake's "Know Yourself" a complete makeover.

Drake continues his Assassination Vacation tour tonight in Amsterdam. Find out more.
