Kanye West has unravelled a detailed apology to fellow rapper Drake amid an intense feud.
Offering a somewhat lengthy olive branch, West said they were “building as friends and brothers” in his social media apology before adding, “I should have spoken to Pusha about the Quentin Miller bar. There should have been more songs with my involvement that had any negative energy towards you.”
A major issue came after Pusha T’s album featured two major diss tracks aimed at Drake and, of course, the album was produced by Kanye. The tracks, ‘Infrared’ and ‘The Story of Adidon’, were aimed directly at Drake and even included lyrics that outed his secret son.
Over to you, Kanye:
Sending good energy and love to Drake and family and crew💜💜💜

Let me start by apologizing for stepping on your release date in the first place … We were building a bond and working on music together including squashing the issues with Cudi at our office.

When I put the dates up I was a bit ramped up doing 25 tweets a day TMZ happened shortly after … I have to hop on the plane now… will type more when I land

plane taxiing for take off… because we spoke about doing Lift Yourself together I should have given you the opportunity for us to do this together before I released it

since we were building as friends and brothers I should have spoken to Pusha about the Quentin Miller bar. There should have been no songs with my involvement that had any negative energy towards you

I never listened to either diss track that followed but I did hear quotes from both songs after they were released

I did not have any conversations about your child with Pusha. I don’t play with the idea of people’s children after I spoke to Wiz a few years earlier.

This is all Jedi level. I will be coming to your show within the next seven days to give love and be inspired by the art you have created.
