Watch Drake mimic shooting Travis Scott during fiery ‘Meltdown’ performance
Drake mimicking shooting Travis Scott during a performance of ‘Meltdown’.In the clip, which you can view below, the former is rapping the lyrics to his collaboration with the latter at Penn State University Park before pointing his arm towards a giant backdrop of Scott’s head to the sound of fake gunshots.It comes after Scott encouraged Future and Metro Boomin to debut their Drake diss track, ‘Like That’, at Rolling Loud California days ahead of its release, earlier this month.On the track, Kendrick Lamar takes aim at Drake and J Cole, seemingly responding to the latter’s verse on ‘First Person Shooter’ from Drake’s 2023 album ‘For All The Dogs’.Drake x travis scott #meltdown #travisscottconcert #fein ♬ original sound – Deeez “Love when they argue the hardest MC / Is it K-Dot? Is it Aubrey? Or me? / We the big three like we started a league, but right now, I feel like Muhammad Ali,” J Cole rapped on the track, with “K-Dot” referring to Lamar.A post shared by Big Boy's Neighborhood (@bigboysneighborhood)However, on ‘Like That’, Lamar seems to dismiss the idea that they’re in the same league, saying: “Motherfuck the big three, n****, it’s just big me/ N****, bum, What? I’m really like that/And your best work is a light pack.”He also went on to liken their rivalry to the ‘80s conflict between Prince and Michael Jackson.Drake has since appeared to have weighed in on his opinion on Lamar’s comments.“A lot of people asking me how I’m feeling… the way I’m feeling is the same way I want you to walk out of here feeling tonight about your fucking selves.
