Drake parodies his own diss tracks with fake beefs on SNL
It’s tradition that hosting Saturday Night Live comes with a fair amount of self-deprecation, and this week’s host, Drake, wound up lampooning the pettiness of the various rap beefs he’s gotten into in is career.
The sketch opens with him angrily penning responses to the SNL cast after they make jokes about his hometown Toronto, the issues that lead to diss tracks slowly getting more trivial.
“Hey, anybody using this chair?” he’s asked, before firing back in song: “Actually I was you bitch, it was for my hat, but you took it for me, now we never goin’ back.”
The rapper famously had beef with Meek Mill last year, the whole saga going on for months despite originating in a handful of tweets.
Drake’s SNL stint seemed to go down well with viewers on the whole, kicking off with a monologue in which he launched a jokey tirade against memes and did a Rihanna impression.
