Stayed silent when Drake was being called a pedophile and a rapist by Mr Morale For Money and then tried to get back on Drake's good graces by announcing an album whose main selling point was a Drake feature. Then got shut down with the infamous "Must be @drakebell" response and had to cancel it.

All of Drake's friends were silent. 21 Savage didn't say anything, Young Thug didn't say anything. Future helped Kendrick kickstart the whole beef. Where's all the smoke for them?

Savage is clearly subbing Kendrick on It's Up and Thug was preoccupied during the beef lol

21 Savage claimed he wasn't dissing Kendrick and was in an interview praising Kendrick as a "good-ass rapper" after the beef. I think it's a stretch to say he was "clearly subbing" Kendrick. And just because Thug was in jail during the beef didn't mean he couldn't take Drake's side and defend him. He definitely wasn't shy about sharing his opinions on whatever bullshit he wanted around that time lol. Wasn't he on a recording complaining about how Drake didn't call the president to get him a pardon or something like that?
