Drake Receives Offer From Uma Thurman for Her ‘Kill Bill’ Suit Amid His Rap Beefs: ‘Need This?’

The 6 God typically uses a pen rather than a sword as his weapon of choice.

Drake is feeling like he’s being swarmed by opps in the rap game right now. As he asks on his leaked “Push Ups” diss track: “What the f–k is this a 20-v-1, n—a?”

The 6 God drew a line from his feuds to Hollywood when comparing his rap beefs to a photo of Uma Thurman (The Bride) in Kill Bill surrounded by enemies as she braces for a sword fight.


He posted the picture to his Instagram Story on Sunday (April 14), and Thurman got wind of the Drizzy shout-out.

The 53-year-old actress responded through an Instagram Story of her own featuring a photo of the iconic suit from the movie, seeing if Drake had any use for it. “Need this? @champagnepapi,” she wrote.

Drake replied in a repost hours later: “Yes pls. The pen is the Hattori Hanzo.” That’s a reference from the film’s samurai sword producer.

As for the OVO mogul’s weapon of choice, he elects to use his pen, which helped him snipe at plenty of his adversaries in rap with “Push Ups.” The hard-hitting diss track leaked on Saturday (April 13) finds Drake appearing to target Kendrick Lamar, Future, Metro Boomin, The Weeknd and Rick Ross.

As Thurman’s post made the rounds on social media, Rick Ross continued to fan the flames of his feud with Drake, and chimed in on Instagram about the yellow suit, asking, “Think it fit me?”

Ricky Rozay didn’t waste any time with his response to Drake as he premiered his “Champagne Moments” diss track aimed at Drizzy with Akademiks on Saturday evening, just mere hours after Drake’s “Push Ups” hit the internet.

Chartbreaker: Hanumankind’s Breakthrough Went Global — Now, He’s Running With the ‘Big Dawgs’

The rap hit has reached No. 23 on the Hot 100 and topped the R&B/Hip-Hop Digital Song Sales chart.

When “Big Dawgs,” the riotous song by Indian rapper Hanumankind and producer Kalmi, began spreading across the world in July, its creators couldn’t fully appreciate its impact. Despite sites like YouTube and Reddit signaling the song’s crossover appeal, Hanumankind and his team were largely in the dark about its impact on TikTok — including the more than 1 million posts using the track to date — since India banned the platform in 2020.

“We’re hearing about this going crazy, but we can’t wrap our heads around [it],” Hanumankind tells Billboard. “We’re sitting at home like, ‘I guess this is happening. Let’s strap in.’ ”
