Did The Weeknd take a shot at Drake on his new song? It certainly seems like it.
On “Lost in the Fire,” an NSFW collaboration with French DJ Gesaffelstein, the crooner seemed to aim a very pointed dig at his fellow Canadian and sometimes friend.
“And I just want a baby with the right one / ‘Cause I could never be the one to hide one,” he sings on the song, which was released last night.
While The Weeknd could, in theory, be singing about a fictional situation, it’s hard to see a lot of similarities between the lines and last year’s shocking revelation that Drake had a secret son.
On the track, the singer makes clear that he intends to take his time to find the right partner to have a child with, unlike Drake who fathered a child with a French adult film star after a one-night stand. And while he could never “hide one,” the Canadian rapper had no problem doing exactly that until he was called out for doing by Pusha T during one of last year’s nastiest rap beefs.
Of course, Drake claimed he actually did the opposite on last year’s “Emotionless,” on which he rapped, “I wasn’t hiding my kid from the world, I was hiding the world from my kid.”
If the lyrics are in fact in reference to Drake, it’s unclear what provoked them. Thought the relationship between the two Toronto natives has sometimes been bumpy, it’s never been this tense before, at least publically.
Maybe the Weeknd is still mad about Drake’s attempt to romance Bella Hadid during the couple’s six-month-long break.
