Exclusive: Metro Boomin Fires Back at Drake’s Challenge to ‘Make Some Drums’

Metro Boomin has responded to Drake criticizing his skills as a producer with a tutorial video uploaded on YouTube. The video, titled “Start with your drums first sometimes,” showcases Metro talking about his production process and emphasizing the significance of drums in rap beats. This response comes amidst a brewing feud between the two artists which has been gaining traction in the music industry.

Drake has been throwing jabs at Metro Boomin ever since the release of their joint album with Future, “We Still Don’t Trust You.” In a leaked diss track called “Push Ups (Drop & Give Me 50),” Drake takes shots at Metro Boomin, along with other artists like Kendrick Lamar, Rick Ross, and The Weeknd. The Toronto native raps, “Metro, shut your ho ass up and make some drums, n-gga,” taking a direct swipe at the producer’s craft.

Not stopping there, Drake continued his taunts on social media by posting a deepfake video of Metro’s head superimposed onto Nick Cannon’s character in the movie Drumline. To escalate the feud further, Drake even went as far as hiring a marching band to play drums outside of Magic City, where Metro and Future were promoting their project. This public spectacle only added fuel to the fire, intensifying the feud between the two artists.

Metro Boomin had already expressed his discontent towards Drake last year when he noticed that Drake’s collaborative album with 21 Savage, “Her Loss,” kept winning awards over his own project “Heroes & Villains,” despite the latter accumulating more streams. He took to social media to vent his frustration, highlighting the politics involved in award shows and emphasizing the real reward for him is knowing his music brings joy to people’s lives.

Drake’s response to Metro’s success was to unfollow him on Instagram and make subtle digs during a Stake livestream, where he called out the non-believers and underachievers in the industry. The tension between the two artists seems to be escalating, with each one throwing verbal punches and engaging in public displays to assert their dominance.

This feud between Drake and Metro Boomin has been a topic of discussion among fans and the music community at large. As the drama unfolds, it keeps the audience on the edge of their seats, eagerly awaiting the next move from these two influential figures in the industry. Only time will tell how this feud plays out and whether it will impact their future collaborations or relationships within the music scene.
