Drake Faces Backlash from Fans for Dissing Ex Rihanna in New Song ‘Fear of Heights’

Rapper Drake’s latest song, ‘Fear of Heights’, from his eighth studio album ‘For All the Dogs’ has ruffled some feathers. Many listeners believe the track alludes to his former relationship with pop sensation Rihanna.

Released via OVO Sound and Republic Records, the song includes verses like:
“Why they make it sound like I’m still hung up on you? / That could never be / Gyal can’t ruin me / Better him than me / Better it’s not me.”

Further fueling speculation, he raps:
“I’m anti, I’m anti / Yeah, and the sex was average with you / Yeah, I’m anti ’cause I had it with you … / And I had way badder bitches than you, TBH.”

These lyrics link Rihanna’s ‘Anti’ album and her track ‘Sex With Me’.

Social Media Backlash
After the song’s release, fans quickly voiced their opinions on social platforms. The couple’s brief 2016 romance ended reportedly due to scheduling conflicts. Though Rihanna mentioned in a 2018 Vogue interview that she and Drake weren’t friends but weren’t foes, it’s ambiguous what triggered this apparent lyrical jab.

Feedback from fans varied, with some comments like:

  • “Drake rapping about Rihanna now seems just as mature as a decade ago.”
  • “Drake’s shade towards Rihanna is just him being salty.”
  • Another fan questioned Rihanna’s recent motherhood, saying she’s too occupied with her newborn to care about such digs.

Drake dissed a particular "gyal" from his past on "For All The Dogs," and fans think he's firing at his former flame Rihanna!

Drake’s Forthcoming Hiatus
While the rapper has remained silent about the song’s implications, he did share some news about his musical journey. On SiriusXM’s ‘Table for One’, Drake disclosed, “I probably won’t make music for a little bit.”

He elaborated, “I need to prioritize my health. I want people to lead healthy lives. So, the studio’s doors will be closed for a while. How long? That’s still uncertain.”
