Drake is trying to have a better year in 2025, and he kicked it off by dropping a new freestyle where he’s calling out everyone who switched up on him. Allegedly titled “Fighting Irish,” the 6 God is seen getting extremely introspective about relationships in his life without specifically referencing who he is talking about.

On the three-minute freestyle — which producer Conductor Williams posted and quickly deleted — Drizzy raps, “The world fell in love with the gimmicks, even my brothers got tickets, seemed like they loved every minute/ Just know the s**t is personal to us and wasn’t just business/ Analyzing behavioral patterns is somewhat suspicious / N****s was never happy for me when I run up the digits / Or when I’m breakin’ world records, still as I guzzle the Guinness / Or when I get my fifth Maybach ’cause the color is different.”
He later continues, “And n****s cried the blues for you sayin’ it wasn’t malicious / Talkin’ about we family, well I’m not the cousin to visit / God forbid we ever got to tarnish your public image / All that brother talk as if I really discovered a sibling.”

Naturally, hip-hop fans are going crazy over the freestyle, leading many to theorize and guess which lines are about Kendrick Lamar, and others Drake may have a problem with.
Since it’s titled “Fighting Irish,” many seem to believe that Drizzy is talking about LeBron James since it references the mascot of James’ high school, St. Vincent-St. Mary.
One person wrote on X, “That new Drake song is called Fighting Irish Freestyle….. so yeah them bars is about Bron.”
This freestyle comes just months after many in the hip-hop world turned against the Toronto rapper after he took legal action against Universal Music Group (UMG).
In one complaint, he claimed that UMG and Spotify conspired to inflate the streams to Lamar’s popular diss track, “Not Like Us.” In another, he accused UMG of defamation for allowing the release of the now infamous diss track which falsely accuses the Toronto rapper of being a “certified pedophile” and “sex offender.”
