Trippie Redd Confesses He Completely Missed Drake’s Kanye West ‘Betrayal’ Shots

Trippie Redd was recently on an interview with Big Boy’s Neighborhood and during the interview he made a surprising admission.

According to Trippie Redd, he had no idea that Drake was dissing Kanye West on the song “Betrayal,” which premiered earlier this month on Trippie Redd’s Trip At Knight album.

“I thought he was talking about a strap or something, forty-five, forty-four,” he says. “I didn’t know what he was talking about. It is what it is.”

The statement that seemed to rouse up Drake and Kanye’s 2018 beef from its slumber was, “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 reference to their album release dates.

In response, Kanye West posted an image of Joaquin Phoenix’s Joker in the discussion, then added Pusha T, a long-time adversary of Drake.

“I live for this,” he wrote in the since-deleted post. “I’ve been fucked with by nerd ass jock n-ggas like you my whole life. You will never recover. I promise you.”

The release of Kanye West’s Donda album on streaming services on Sunday (August 29) ended the dispute as to who would drop their projects first. On Monday (August 30), Drake revealed that his long-awaited sequel to 2018’s Scorpion album, Certified Lover Boy, will be released Friday (September 3).

In terms of high-profile debuts, Kendrick Lamar is next in line. On August 20, the renowned MC appeared to start his album rollout when he revealed that his next studio project would be his last for Top Dawg Entertainment.
