Over the weekend, Drake's new diss track hit the internet. On the song "Push Ups," he took shots at numerous superstars who have criticized him in recent weeks. That mainly focused on Kendrick Lamar, Metro Boomin, and Rick Ross but is also rumored to include Future and The Weeknd. Fans got to hear the song and break down all of it's lyrics for almost a week before it was officially released. Earlier today, the song finally hit streaming services.

Drake took to his Instagram story where he announced the songs release on Spotify and Apple Music. Unsurprisingly, he used the announcement as yet another opportunity to take a shot at Kendrick Lamar. “All platforms like the shoes you need… let’s get it bro.” the caption of his announcement reads. The song's artwork also hilarious features the mark of a size seven shoe. Both the caption and art are references to a lyric in the song where he takes shots at Kendrick for his height and shoe size.
