You know, like he tries to nonchalantly deflect with the statement that shit is me, but it isn't me.
I can see where you get that impression.
But I think there's something different happening here.
I think Drake is trying to appear unbothered, but is most certainly not unbothered by the whole situation.
In fact, he is extremely bothered by what happened with Kendrick.
This is not a new attitude from Drake by any means.
During the beef, you know, he seemed pretty agitated, juxtaposed with Kendrick's attitude of effortless trolling that we heard on tracks like Not Like Us.
But it's clear what Iceman is supposed to be in this moment and this song writ large.
It feels like Drake is using this album.
as a chance to kind of clear his throat about the whole affair.
And while those lines are attempted nonchalance, this album establishes where Drake is at mentally, and that state is pretty petty.
Even the title, Make Them Cry, on this song, it's clear what the intention is.
It's about them and what he wants them to feel.
He's miffed at people bringing up the beef in the first place.
