1. Meek Mill


This is probably the longest streak of beef that Drake has had with somebody. Countless diss tracks between Meek and Drake began in July 2015 after Meek called Drake out on twitter. In this lyric, Drake makes a whole diss rap to attack Meek.

Diss Lyric: "Wow, I’m honored that you think this is staged

I’m flattered man, in fact, I’m amazed

The perfect start to the summer, man this shit is a doozy

This shit a twist in the movie but don't jump to conclusions." (Charged Up)

2. Kid Cudi

Drake's beef surfaced with Cudi on his new track, "Two Birds, One Stone." Drake dissed Cudi as a result of Cudi's tweet about ghostwriters. This lyric touches on Cudi's struggle with addiction and proves to be a new low for Drake's list of subliminal disses.

Diss Lyric: "You were the man on the moon

Now you just go through your phases

Life of the angry and famous

Rap like I know I'm the greatest

Then give you tropical flavors

Still never been on hiatus

You stay xann'd and perk'd up

So when reality set in, you don't gotta face it." (Two Birds, One Stone)


3. Tyga

Tyga and Drake's beef dates back to the Young Money days. In an interview with Vibe magazine, Tyga said Drake was a fake person and he didn't like him. The beef unraveled from there and Drake threw subliminal shots at Tyga in his music. In this lyrics Drake takes shots at Tyga and Kylie Jenner's relationship.

Diss lyric: "I heard a little little homie talking reckless in Vibe

That's quite a platform you chose

You should've kept it inside—oh, you tried

It's so childish calling my name on the world stage

You need to act your age and not your girl's age." (6PM in New York)

4. Tory Lanez

Two rival artists from the 6, Tory Lanez and Drake were bound to beef or be bros. In their case, the beef between these two Toronto artists is very unclear. Both rappers chose to hit each other with subliminals in their music. My guess is the competition to be the best artist from the 6. In this lyric, Drake jabs at Lanez by saying that Lanez wants to be like Drake and it is also a play on words, referencing Lanez's album The New Toronto.

Diss lyric: "All you boys in the New Toronto want to be me a little." (Summer Sixteen)

5. Joe Budden

Drake's beef with Joe Budden dates back to the release of Drake's album Views. According to Hot New Hip Hop, the beef began when Budden trashed Drake's album in his podcast. Since then, both have taken to diss tracks. In this lyric, Drake uses a line from Budden's top hit, "Pump It Up," and uses it against him to say that Drake is a bigger artist; the artist that Budden wishes he was. Drake is saying that "Pump It Up," was Budden's only popular song, while all of Drake's songs are popular.

Diss lyric: " Pump, pump, pump it up

She got a good head on her, but I pump it up

I'm not a one hit wonder, they know all my stuff

You let me turn into the n***a that you almost was." (No Shopping)

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
