Following a landslide of tweets from Kanye West that included some claims of how Drake is threatening him and his family, Kim Kardashian jumped to her beloved husband’s defence, telling the Canadian artist to back off:
@drake Never threaten my husband or our family. He paved the way for there to be a Drake.
— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) 14 December 2018
My husband is the most brilliant person, the most genius person that I know. He has broken so many boundaries, everything from music, stage design, fashion and culture and will continue to change the world.

Kanye earlier took the social media platform by storm, repeatedly claiming that Drake threatened him over the phone:
Drake called trying to threatened me

— ye (@kanyewest) 14 December 2018

— ye (@kanyewest) 14 December 2018
But before that he told his followers about the ongoing issues with Drake, having shared a screenshot of a text asking to give the Toronto rapper clearance to use the 2009 track “Say What’s Real”, which samples Ye’s “Say You Will” beat.

Yeezy further expressed frustration with the fact that they hadn’t discussed their issues directly yet…
Been trying to meet with you for 6 months bro You sneak dissing on trav records and texting Kris talking bout how’s the family
— ye (@kanyewest) 13 December 2018
… and demanded an apology from Drake for insulting his 350 Boost shoes on the French Montana song “No Stylist”…
Still need that apology for mentioning the 350s and trying to take food out your idols kids mouths
— ye (@kanyewest) 13 December 2018
…and brought up the feud between Drake and Pusha-T, reiterating that he never told Pusha about Drake’s secret son, information that Pusha revealed in the diss track “The Story of Adidon”:
I told you I ain’t tell Pusha about your son
— ye (@kanyewest) 13 December 2018
After Kanye’s Twitter spree, Drake took to Instagram stories to post a few laughing emojis:

The bad blood between Drake and Kanye started after Pusha-T released a diss track against the Canadian. The song revealed that Drake had a son, he’d never spoken about in public, with porn star Sophie Brussaux – and Kanye appeared to be the one Drake had shared it with. After the diss came out, Drake suggested that West had betrayed him despite the fact that Pusha-T denied that Ye was his source.
