Trippie redd snuck a no. 1 hip hop album onto the charts before the ‘clb’ + ‘donda’ craziness hit.

In 2021, Trippie Redd may be a rapper with fantastic timing.

After the release of his fourth album Trip at Knight on August 20, which debuted at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, The “Dark Knight Dummo” rapper notched his fourth No. 1 on the chart with 81,000 equivalent album units in its first week.

The Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart also includes ten of the album’s songs.

The collections of artists on the big screen include Lil Uzi Vert, SoFaygo, Playboi Carti, Juice WRLD and XXXTENTACION, as well as Drake. The latter collaboration arguably sparked the present streaming wars between Kanye West and Certified Lover Boy, with both artists releasing albums over an extended period.

On the track “Betrayal,” on the Trip At Knight album, Drake fired off a quip heard throughout the world: “All these fools I’m beefin’ that I barely know/Forty-five, forty-four (Burned out), let it go/Ye ain’t changin’ shit for me, it’s set in stone” — a shot fired at Donda’s unpredictable release.

The lyrics were as intense to Kanye West as the Michael Jordan meme was, and he allegedly leaked Drake’s house and location, prompting him to visit his Toronto headquarters with Donda advertisements.

The Trip At Knight’s Billboard feat succeeds previous albums A Love Letter to You 3, A Love Letter to You 4 and 2020’s Pegasus, which will undoubtedly bring great news for diehard fans across the country.

Drake, Future, and Young Thug Get ‘Way 2 Sexy’ for a New Video With Nba Star Kawhi Leonard’s Help

On Friday (September 3), Drake delivered his long-anticipated Certified Lover Boy, followed by the release of the first music video. The song “Way 2 Sexy” from CLB features Future and Young Thug, who are known as Super Slimey.

Mr. Meyers serves as the main director, while Drake takes on a number of roles, including taking an aerobics class, transitioning to Rambo, getting older as he walks the beach with his protruding stomach out, becoming a pirate, and even releasing his own line of fragrance.

Fans had heard “Way 2 Sexy” was one of the songs being recorded in August, when Akademiks uploaded video footage from the shoot and claimed it would be released as a single to compete with Kanye West’s Donda release. However, they decided to save the TM88-produced song for CLB instead.

Drake Finally Releases His Album After Months

Drake (34) released his long-awaited new album on Friday. ‘Certified Lover Boy’ is the Canadian rapper’s sixth album and the first since his 2018 hit album ‘Scorpion’.

The album contains a total of 21 songs and numerous collaborations with other artists. Among others, Lil Baby, Jay-Z, Travis Scott, Young Thug, Future, 21 Savage, Ty Dolla $ign and Kid Cudi.

Certified Lover Boy was supposed to be released in January, but Drake postponed the release several times.

Kanye West’s Manager Says He Could Squash the Beef With Drake Depending on ‘Clb’ Jabs

Kanye West and Drake resurrected their feud in August, with several jabs emerging from Drizzy’s verse on Trippie Redd’s “Betrayal,” which was released in January. Despite all of the insults launched, Kanye’s manager Abou “Bu” Thiam thinks they have a chance to put it behind them.

In a recent interview with TMZ, Bu offered his views on the situation preceding Certified Lover Boy’s anticipated release on Friday (September 3).

“It’s two creatives taking jabs at each other, but they could rectify it, man,” he admitted. “Yeah, of course. You know, we’ll see. His album comes out I think in a couple days … Friday. Depending on what he says on his album, we’ll see.”

He agreed with the interviewer’s assessment that it was too soon to judge since Drake might have future disses up his sleeve.

Also, while answering a question, Bu also spoke about Chris Brown and Soulja Boy’s disappointment with Kanye West for not using their vocals on Donda.

“It’s Kanye’s album, man,” he said. “He’s painting his picture. You can’t tell someone to use your verse or not use your verse. There’s 10001 artists that didn’t make the album. That’s why I was so surprised when I heard the responses from all these artists. I’m like, ‘People do that shit all the time.’ No disrespect, Chris [Brown] is like my little brother, that’s family, Soulja Boy… it’s all love and it wasn’t intentional.”

Bu also hinted at Kanye West’s issues with Universal Music Group, which he says released Donda without his permission.

Kanye West has put up ‘Donda’ Ads in Toronto, in an apparent bid to boost his new song’s popularity

Kanye West has escalated his feud with Drake to new heights — literally.

In past month, the Hip Hop legends renewed their long-brewing rivalry after Drake attacked Kanye West on Trippie Redd’s “Betrayal,” to which Ye responded by releasing Drake’s home address on social media, a move that received a Joker-like giggle from the OVO rapper.

Kanye West and Drake are now competing for billboard space, on Drizzy’s home turf.

Kanye West promoted his new album on Wednesday by putting up Donda advertisements all over Downtown Toronto. Kanye’s billboards outnumber and tower above those purchased by Drake to advertise his own upcoming project Certified Lover Boy, which will be released Friday (September 3).

Of course, it’s not unusual for a major label artist to acquire billboard space to promote their newest project. But every move in Kanye West and Drake’s simmering feud seems to have more significance.

For example, earlier this week, Drake appeared to take a planned swipe at Mr. West when he reposted Soulja Boy’s photo on Instagram, which is an odd choice given that Big Draco has spent the bulk of this week taking potshots at Kanye for removing his verse from Donda.

Despite the fact that his backyard is infiltrated by Donda advertisements, Drake’s Certified Lover Boy billboards are certainly not going unnoticed.
