New Release: Joe Budden – Wake [Drake Diss]
Joe Budden just dropped a new Drake diss titled Wake. Drake may be too big to respond to Joe Budden and his incessant dissing but you had best believe this is a calculated war for Mouse. After last week’s “Making a Murderer (Pt. 1)” didn’t get a rise out of anyone in the OVO camp (at least publicly), Budden returns with “Wake,” a more targeted hollow tip that brings to light many of Drake’s alleged shine-stealing tactics to keep himself in the spotlight and those around him in the shadows.
The record’s cover art utilizes that infamous Rougned Odor to Jose Bautista cold clock and given the lyrical anecdotes included in the song, it was a suitable choice for a photo-op.
Remember Drake’s appearance in Fetty Wap’s “My Way (Remix)” video? Of course you don’t. It never happened. Joe brings it up. The Weeknd and ILoveMakkonen have since branched out on their own after coming up underneath the 6ix god. Joe brings that up too. Even Courtney from Hooters on Peachtree gets thrown into the equation. Joe (and araabMUZIK once again) used the Petty Crocker recipes to cook up this slander stew.
To top it all off, Joe intentionally released the track at 2:31 AM — the exact time Drake was born. This takes subliminal trolling to a whole ‘nother level. Only two questions will remain: 1) Will Drake respond and 2) will Joe ever stop either way? Listen to “Wake” down below and determine your own conclusions for now:
