Ever since Drake debuted "KMT" live on his European tour, there has been debate over whether or not the triplet flow he used on the song was directly inspired by South Florida rapper XXXTENTACION.
XXX was just released from jail last week. He will serve 6 years probation for charges of home invasion and battery. However, he still faces charges of aggravated battery of a pregnant woman, domestic battery by strangulation, false imprisonment, and witness-tampering, linked to an alleged assault on his then-girlfriend in October 2016. He has pleaded not guilty to the charges and was released on bail last December.
Now that XXX has done some interviews, the controversial rapper has made a point of criticizing Drake for "stealing" the flow from his popular release "Look At Me." Drake has gone on record saying that he had never heard of X before he recorded "KMT," though X's manager claims otherwise.
Now, unexpectedly, Migos rapper Offset has offered his opinion on the "biting" accusations, and he seems to be siding with Drake. The Atlanta rapper shared some thoughts on XXX's claims in a live video on Instagram which has been documented by DJ Akademiks.

"Y'all n---as silly," he said. "How you ain't heard of, and n---as talkin' like you stole they swag. We ain't even heard you. Get your ass outta jail and run that shit up. Whatever your name is."
XXXTENTACION has yet to respond to Offset's comments.
Migos collaborated with Drake in 2013 when the Toronto rapper remixed their regional hit "Versace." Quavo, another member of the group, appeared on "Portland," a track from Drake's new "playlist," More Life.
