In this episode of Club Ambition, the crew discusses the allegations and controversy surrounding Drake’s potential involvement in the death of rapper XXXTentacion, who was killed in Florida six years ago. Drake has made several lyrical references that seem to allude to XXXTentacion’s death, fueling conspiracy theories.
Ryan Garcia tweeted a claim that “Drake killed X,” prompting responses from XXXTentacion’s friends. For the first time, Ski Mask the Slump God and DJ Scheme, close friends of XXXTentacion, spoke out about the situation. They revealed that Drake had previously told them he didn’t kill XXXTentacion and that he loved him. However, they expressed frustration with Drake for continuing to make lyrical references to the killing, which they see as disrespectful.
The hosts discuss whether Drake is being petty or playing into a persona with these continued references. They criticized XXXTentacion’s friends for not speaking out earlier to dispel the rumors. The hosts speculate on why XXXTentacion’s friends might have remained silent until now, suggesting fear of Drake’s industry influence or waiting for the right moment. They note that DJ Scheme’s statement against Drake is particularly significant due to his industry connections.
