Baka Not Nice appears to reference the ongoing feud between Drake and Pusha T on "Body & A Face."

OVO's enforcer Baka Not Nice is back again with the release of his new single, "Body & A Face." The single comes nearly three years after his last song, "Up" and much has happened within that time. Ye and Drake finally made up but the feud with Pusha T continues to linger with no signs of it coming to an end.

In "Body & A Face," Baka appears to reference the long-standing feud with Pusha T on numerous lines. Baka delivers a blanket threat to anyone who is playing with Drake's name. "Diss The Boy and I'ma make you pay the fee for it... Diss The Boy and I'ma shoot whatever n***a made the beat for it," he raps. Though these lines don't seem targeted toward Pusha T directly, he seemingly dives deeper into the topic in the second verse.

"When you go on tour, you gon' have to leave the states
And then it's face to face
Noreaga interviews will get you n***as laced

I don't wanna hear you try to tell me 'bout mistakes
Almost lit your show up but we couldn't find the place
But Drizzy put me in my place
Told me just to wait (What?), YOLO Estates"


This appears to be a reference to Pusha T's interview on Drink Champs earlier this year following the release of It's Almost Dry. It seems like Baka is referencing Push's claim that he's no longer allowed in Canada, as well as the brawl at his 2018 concert in Toronto that left one man stabbed.
