Drake might have actually cemented his honorary status as a Brit now, after starting a rap beef with grimes godfather Wiley.

The Gods Plan rapper has just wrapped up his epic Assassination Tour at Londons O2 Arena after a seven-night stint, and apparently has a lot to get off his chest.

Sitting down for a chat with BBC 1Xtra radio host Tiffany Calver, Drizzy addressed Wiley, 40, recently calling him a culture vulture for bringing out tons of UK talent during his tour shows, including J Hus, Krept & Konan, Afro B, Dave and Fredo, to name just a handful.

Reacting to Wileys comments, Drake, 32, said: It is what it is, I see a lot and Ill never understand how supporting somebodys song or even going a step further and giving somebody a song or linking up…

Ill never understand how thats not viewed as something admirable but I guess people have their own outlook on it.

Clearly relieved at finally having the chance to respond to Wiley, Drake added: Thats just something I wanted to get off my chest. I just had to talk about it because its bothering me.

Calling out the grime legend directly, the Canadian rapper stated: But yeah, I didnt like that. Its Wiley that said that, Ill just say his name because that was some goofy s**t. But yeah, I just didnt like that.

I was like, dude what are you talking about? They have tunes that are ringing off. Anybody thats on now, what are you guys talking about?

It seems Drizzy actually wanted Wiley to respond, as he concluded: Man can chat what they want. If its a ting, let me know.

Hes one brave soul because, well, has he ever heard a Wiley rant?

However, Wiley seemed to find the whole thing hilarious and laughed off Drizzys comments on social media – with a whole load of cry laughing emojis, of course.
