A$AP Rocky Defends Rihanna With Venomous Drake Diss “Show Of Hands”
A$AP Rocky continues to defend Rihanna in new Drake diss track, “Show Of Hands.” The new shots arrived on Metro Boomin and Future‘s new album, We Still Don’t Trust You, which was released on Friday (April 12).
Unlike his previous diss, “WOW,” “Show Of Hands” is venomous.
Rocky jabs at Drake, responding to him for mentioning RiRi on For All The Dogs. He then drags Drizzy’s baby mother, Sophie Brussaux, into the mix, seemingly claiming to have had slept with Brussaux before Drake did. Rocky then clowns Drizzy for dropping FATD, asserting that the material “came and went.”
“Ni**as swear they bi**h the baddest, I just bagged the worst one/Ni**as in they feelings over women, what, you hurt or somethin’?/I smash before you birthed, son, Flacko hit it first, son/Still don’ trust you, it’s always us, never them/Heard you dropped your latest sh*t/Funny how it just came and went,” Rocky raps.
The alleged tension between Rocky and Drake can be traced to the latter’s “Another Late Night” song. Drake included the song on For All The Dogs, to which he took shots at A$AP with some wordplay. “I ain’t Pretty Flacko, bi**h, this sh*t get really Rocky/ Damn, what? Dirty how I did him in the Wraith.”
Drake’s “Fear of Heights” also references Rih and her album Anti. That track finds the Canadian emcee clowning Rihanna and Rocky’s “average sex.” He then mocks Rocky for needing to stay with her, unlike himself.
“Why they make it sound like I’m still hung up on you?/ That could never be,” Drake spit. “Gyal can’t ruin me/ Better him than me, better it’s not me/I’m anti, I’m anti/ Yeah, and the sex was average with you/ Yeah, I’m anti ’cause I had it with you/ Okay, I’m auntie like your daddy sister/ Auntie like a family picture/ And I had way badder bi**hes than you, TBH/ Yeah, that man, he still with you, he can’t leave you/Y’all go on vacation, I bet it’s Antilles.”
Rocky swung back with his verse on Kid Cudi‘s “WOW.” The father of two threatened violence if Drizzy continued to talk crazy. He also insisted that Rihanna would partake in the violence if it came down to it. Rocky then claimed that he wouldn’t forget the Her Loss rapper’s disrespect and would “keep receipts.”
“Got it extended in my jeans/Yeah, my Dickies got the crease, I got kisses on my cheek/I got glitter on my teeth, I got lipstick on my briefs/Keep it cool, keep it smooth, why you makin’ a scene?,” he raps. “Plus my boo got the Glizzy, keep the receipt if it’s beef/Cheffin’ mans, Boyardee, with the latest Goyard/Me and my vamp bae got our own handshake/These ni**as can’t stomach me, gotta go get a mandrake.”
