A few weeks prior, iLoveMakonnen sparked headlines after dissing Drake.

“It looks like Views From The, or what’s that n*gga album? What’s that dumba** album, uh, Take Care or some sh*t? [laughs] … Why you leave OVO? ‘Cause I was underweight now. When I was overweight, they were f*cking with me. That’s what OVO stand for. Overweight Only. Overweight N*ggas Only.”
