A new report suggests that one of the men accused of murdering XXXtentacion says Canadian rapper Drake is somehow involved in his killing.
In court documents obtained by AllHipHop, Dedrick Williams’ attorney cites lyrics from Drake’s music that appear to address X.
“On BS” from Drake’s latest album Her Loss, he raps: “Maybe I should break that 10, do a five, then if it gets live, do a five again/If he held his tongue on that live, he’d be alive again, damn/I never put no prices on the beef until we end this sh-t.”
The court documents also reference Drizzy’s 2018 Scorpion track, “I’m Upset.”
Drake rapped: “SMS, triple X/That’s the only time I ever shoot below the neck (Skrr)/Why you keep on shootin’ if you know that n-gga dead? (Skrr).”
Williams’ attorney, Mauricio Padillio claims Drake has several ties to gangs and the means to make it happen.
“In February 2021, Hassan Ali was arrested and recaptured at a Hollywood fast food outlet after removing his ankle monitor and fleeing to Los Angeles California,” Padillo said in the documents. “[Drake’s] residence is located in Beverly Hills, California. Prior to his arrest for murder, [Top5] appeared on a podcast by DJ Akademiks and declared openly ‘I am Drake’s shooter. I’m not lying. Anyone disrespect Drake, I am shooting.’ That was said openly and aired for millions to view on DJ Akademiks’ podcast.”
Drake has not addressed his name being brought up in court.
