Drake uses audio of Kim Kardashian talking about divorce in new song
Is Drake poking the bear (Kanye West) with his new song?
It looks like Drake is reigniting his feud with Kanye West. The 36-year-old rapper teased a new song that features audio taken from a clip of Kim Kardashian talking about her divorce.
Kim filed for divorce from Kanye in 2021. 'The Kardashians' star was declared legally single in March 2022 - eight months before their divorce was finalised.
Kanye was ordered to pay $200,000 a month in child support payments for their four children - North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm.
The former couple's split turned ugly when Kanye publicly attacked Kim and later her then-boyfriend, Pete Davidson.

During the final season of 'Keeping Up With The Kardashians' on E!, Kim opened up about her decision to get a divorce.
"I didn’t come this far, just to come this far and not be happy. Remember that,” the 42-year-old says in the clip while speaking to her mother Kris Jenner.
According to PEOPLE, Drake teased an unreleased song called 'Rescue Me' a few days ago that features the SKIMS founder's voice.
The track featuring the sample audio was reportedly played on 'The Fry Yiy Show' on SiriusXM Radio.

Drake has not commented on the alleged Kim K feature, but his dad, Dennis Graham, is coming to his defence.
Social media users are convinced that Drake is taking a dig at Kanye by using his ex-wife's voice in the song.
The rappers have taken shots at each other in the past but seemed to patch things up in late 2021 when they posed together for a picture shared on Instagram.
Dennis has dismissed claims that his son is beefing with Kanye again.
"Drake is not trolling anyone, it’s just a song. Why try and create a Kanye and Drake beef again?” he commented on a post shared by TMZ.

Kanye has been keeping a low profile over the past few months and is yet to comment on Drake's song.
Some people have questioned whether the song was part of an April Fool's Day joke, as the 100th episode of 'The Fry Yiy Show' fell on April 1.
