Camila Cabello has addressed the recent wave of “frustrating” slander directed at Drake.
The former Fifth Harmony member commented on the allegations against the Canadian rapper, who is currently embroiled in a public feud with Kendrick Lamar.
The pair have recently exchanged barbs, with Lamar accusing Drake of being a “certified pedophile” and Drake retaliating by criticizing Lamar’s partner, saying, “You the black messiah wifing up a mixed queen.”
Cabello, who recently collaborated with Drake on her new album ‘C,XOXO,’ where he is featured on two tracks, shared her thoughts on the situation.
In an interview with The Times, she described Drake as “such a delight” and expressed her frustration over the negative discourse surrounding him.
“It’s so frustrating to see people talk about someone you know in a way that is negative. You’re like, ‘Dang, if only you guys could just have dinner or something.’”
The singer also opened up about how she snagged Drake as a collaborator, recalling that she slid into his DMs without expecting him to reply.
“It’s like a weird teenage thing where I feel that nobody cares about me or likes me,” she continued. “And it was fun to be proven wrong.”
In our three-star review of ‘C,XOXO’, NME wrote: “Still, whether you think Cabello is “that girl” or not, there’s no denying that ‘C,XOXO’ is packed with quirky earworms: she even blends emo and reggaeton on the brilliant, melancholy club banger ‘Pretty When I Cry’.
“Some of 2024’s most anticipated pop albums have sunk pretty fast after hyped roll-outs; this one deserves to keep bubbling to the surface for months to come.”
