Rick Ross isn’t done beefing with Drake.

The Miami rapper recently updated the cover art to his “Champagne Moments” diss track aimed at his former friend and collaborator. The original artwork was from a 2014 tweet that read, “please take a moment to enjoy: white guy who looks like drake.”


Now the updated cover is a cartoon rendition of the Toronto rapper with blonde hair, glasses, and a bow tie.

Fans remember “Champagne Moments” for being the first response to Drake’s “Push Ups.” Ross dropped the song hours after Drake released “Push Ups” and set the rap community ablaze with hot takes and commentary. While Ross didn’t diss Drake on his Future and Metro Boomin “Everyday Hustle” guest appearance, the mere fact he was on the album was enough for Drake to send shots at him.

“I might take your latest girl and cuff her like I’m Ricky/ Can’t believe he jumpin’ in, this n—a turnin’ 50/ Every song that made it on the chart, he got from Drizzy/ Spend that lil’ check you got and stay up out my business,” Drake rapped on the last verse of “Push Ups.”

Ross then responded with “Champagne Moments,” where he mentioned ghostwriters and Drake’s deal with Universal Music Group, rapping, “Ghostwriters, they get to floss what you could’ve had/ Record label takin’ a loss, are you in your bag?/ You a worker wantin’ to chart, don’t make me laugh.”

He also referred to Drake as “white boy” multiple times and revealed why he unfollowed his former friend on social media during a rant on the song’s outro. “You ain’t never want to be a n—a anyway, n—a. That’s why you had an operation to make your nose smaller than your father nose, n—a.” Adding, “I unfollowed you, n—a, ’cause you sent the motherf—in’ cease-and-desist to French Montana, n—a. You sent the police, n—a, hated on my dog project.”

Dave Grohl Explains Why Foo Fighters Moved On From Josh Freese

"We called, as a band, all of us called, it wasn't just me," Grohl told Zane Lowe.

Dave Grohl has addressed Josh Freese’s departure from Foo Fighters for the first time, explaining that the decision to move on from the drummer was a collective one that “didn’t happen overnight.”

Speaking in a new interview with Zane Lowe, Grohl reflected on the band’s internal discussions following Freese’s exit last year. Freese, who stepped in as Foo Fighters’ drummer in 2023 after the death of Taylor Hawkins, revealed in May that he had been let go from the group, writing on Instagram that the band had decided “to go in a different direction with their drummer” and that “no reason was given.”
