In the 17-track album is a song, Like That, that has been making waves on the internet, and features Kendrick Lamar who took shots at Drake and J. Cole.

You'll remember in 2013 when K.Dot dissed a large number of rappers, Drake and Cole included, on Control while claiming the number one spot.

This time, Kendrick took it a step further and came for the rappers head-on, and Drizzy spoke up. Akademiks posted a video of Drake on stage reacting to the noise:

"I've got my head up high and my back straight. I'm ten toes down and I know that no matter what, there's nobody on this earth that would ever mess with me, on my life.
"You get yourself riled up and move towards the future. Sometimes, you've got to acknowledge the mistakes you made in the past."

Drake shows love to the ladies

In an earlier report, YEN.com.gh shared online reactions to Drake sliding into an Instagram baddie's DMs and complimenting her.

This move was widely criticised online, with many netizens claiming that Drizzy didn't know how to approach a woman.

On a lighter note, the rapper also made a pregnant lady's day when he made her a "rich baby mama" during his concert.
