Been a while since I looked a diss tracks. But, Drake went on the internet and told everyone he was undefeated in rap beef and never caught bars. That's a lie. Drake caught a lot of bars, and he'll catch a lot more. Just to refresh Drake's memory, I put together a list of the top 5 Drake disses.
Honorable Mention: Exodus 23.1
Artist: Pusha T
Reason: Drake got in a beef he was 1000 years too young to understand. Therefore Drake caught some strays when Pusha was shooting at Wayne.
Outcome: More diss tracks
Quotables:
"Contract all fucked up, I guess that means you all fucked up. You signed to one nigga that signed to another nigga, that's signed to three niggas, now that's bad luck"
"They got you talking that big shit, little do you know we don't miss shit. Them niggas using you as a pawn, you see they never loaded they guns, now you out here all by yourself"

Song: Making of a Murderer
Artist: Joe Budden
Reason: Joe said some things in an interview that weren't nice about Drake's album Views From The Six. Drake didn't like this so he started throwing subliminals on...this can't be correct...Instagram. Despite doing an interview with Joe, stating Joe inspired his career. Drake finally responded verbally with "4PM in Calabases," with some subliminals about Joe's exes and named Joe on French Montana's "No Shopping," Joe dropped this track, and two others waiting for a response. That's where Drake got the idea of back to back. Note Drake mentioning a love interest of Joe, this is a theme.
Outcome: They're friends now for some reason. They text and facetime. I don't know how it happened. Two emotional guys just cried it out. It just happened, perhaps Drake really was just a fan and Joe was just flushing the dust out his system. Who else has time to record 20 minutes of diss tracks in a day.
Quotables:
"You made me proud, lad, but it seems my child mad, with all the clout that he grabbed, it's still doubts from his dad. Look, this ain't promotional, you just emotional, no doubt you got Starbucks, with all that Joe in you"
"But since the OG's Hov, here's what I wanna know, if ain't no real niggas allowed the fuck would I wanna go? That's thinkin' back to Jay, now let's get back to Drake, both too big to respond to all I have to say. Still with all their success and all their accolades, the universe makes it so they come right back to me"
"Might have made a mistake out of this one, can't Bell Biv Devoe your way out of this one, nah. So, warn your damn campaign that hammers rang, I just bought a New Edition, you can't stand the rain. Y'all say this soft nigga hard and that, I can't explain, y'all think he's soul for real, I see candy rain. So Aubrey when you sub real MCs, you get murdered, and since you signed to five guys, makes you a burger"

Song: Stay Schemin
Artist: Common
Reason: At the time Common was dating Serena Williams. Drake really wanted to date Serena Williams and kept mentioning her in songs, and attending her games. He would sneak diss Common but never mention him.
Outcome: Drake never mentioned Serena Williams again. Serena Williams and Common broke up, but they're adults and private so we can't say if Drake's meddling had anything to do with it. She did not date Drake.
Notes: Common is the first rapper to mention Drake struggling with his blackness and Drake was admittedly bothered by this. It became a point for many future disses. Did Common know about the blackface before Pusha T? Also, Drake mentioned both Serena and Venessa Bryant several times that year.
Quotables:
"Son of a bitch, I imagine what your father is"
"Acting all hard when he hardly like that, you gon’ mess around and make me catch a body like that, awwww, don’t do it"
"Can’t say my name but rap about a nigga’s wife"
"You so black and white, trying to live a nigga’s life"

Song: Wack 2 Wack
Artist: Sauce Walka
Reason: Drake called "The Drip" a dance. Sauce didn't like that and called out Drake as a culture vulture who leaches off upcoming artist to stay relevant.
Outcome: Sauce Walka beat up a guy in the mall and has the same combos waiting for Drake.
Notes: Drake actually dis miss those shows that weekend in Houston. He promised the Sauce Twinz a verse for their next project and didn't deliver. Then he got pressed for lying.
Quotables:
"At Treasures spending your money on these bitches, little perv, and I ain't talking bout dancers, you was paying for pussy, I was pimping so I knew about that shit, little rookie"
"You was too busy fucking Jhonni Blaze bare skin, uhhh, but he got that hot dick, tried to keep it secret but Lil Blaze had them hot lips"
"What kinda man let another man pee on him? You kissed Madonna after everybody peed on her"
"Since when is it cool to use steroids, ain' that the same reason they shook Lance Armstrong, ain't that the reason Barry Bonds' hall of fame gone"
"You used to draw Digimons and Pokemons, and draw lil dicks on the paper, you super bad"
"When you was in Houston, I pulled up at Del Frisco's, with them shooters with me and y'all was real nervous, I came to the dinner table, real urgent, that whole weekend, I had you around the city sneaking, you missed about three shows that weekend"

Song: War Pain
Artist: Meek Mill
Reason: Drake was jealous that Nicki Minaj was with Meek Mill.
Outcome: Neither is with Nicki Minaj. Meek and Nicki seem happy and have moved on. Drake has moved on to mentioning yet another man's significant other in music. Drake did collaborate with Meek Mill to signify the beef was other. Nicki has not worked with either but claims to have retired.
Notes: Meek released this track 15 minutes after Summer Sixteen, while Meek and Nicki were sitting courtside at the 76ers game, so either Meek writes really fast and records so fast nobody saw him leave his seat, or someone in Drake's camp gave him the lyrics and he was ready to press upload. Record response time. This is the third time Drake has mentioned someone's love interest on this list.
Quotables:
"You ain't write it' nigga, we caught ya, can't erase that shit and you claimin' you HOV now? Why you state that shit?"
"Culture vulture, now it's time to pay the tolls, soft as the lacrosse team, boy that's word to HOV"
"No reply, word to God I'm on the floor still, me and Nicki watchin' the Sixers"
"Marchin' all these fuckin' drums on me like a drill team, I be with my young niggas, all they know is kill things, don't make me make a real scene "

Song: Story of Addinon
Artist: Pusha T
Reason: Drake told Lil Wayne and Birdman that he would handle Pusha T and started throwing shots.
Outcome: Drake said Pusha T went too far. This was the same man who called out Pusha T's fiance, criticized Kid Cudi's mental health. Pusha T would also go on Joe Budden's podcast to play voice mails of people contacting him to inform him that Drake was looking for information. Drake has only responded by saying Pusha T went too far.
So many quotables:

So many quotables:
"Even though you're multi, I see that your soul don't look alive, the M's count different when Baby divides the pie"
"Dennis Graham stay off the 'Gram, bitch, I'm on one"
"You mention wedding ring like it's a bad thing, your father walked away at five—hell of a dad thing. Marriage is somethin' that Sandi never had, Drake, how you a winner but she keep comin' in last place?"
"Confused, always felt you weren't Black enough, afraid to grow it 'cause your 'fro wouldn't nap enough"
"Since you name-dropped my fiancée, let 'em know who you chose as your Beyoncé, Sophie knows better as your baby mother, cleaned her up for IG, but the stench is on her"
"YOU ARE HIDING A CHILD"
"let that boy come home, deadbeat mothafucka playin' border patrol"
"Love that baby, respect that girl, forget she's a pornstar, let her be your world"
"OVO 40, hunched over like he 80—tick, tick, tick, how much time he got? That man is sick, sick, sick"
I feel bad for everyone who caught strays becaus of Drake. Dennis is the only one who had those shots coming because he was talking wild on Instagram. Doesn't matter anyway, Drake never got bars right?
Wack 2 Wack was so disrespectful. Owiieeee *Sauce walka voice*
