Drake has issued a statement in regards to the blackface photo.
As you know, Pusha T recently dropped a diss track titled, The Story Of Adidon and used a REAL photo of Drake for the cover art.
Please stop referring to this picture as “artwork”...I’m not an internet baby, I don’t edit images...this is a REAL picture...these are his truths, see for yourself https://t.co/gd6vRS3HM8 pic.twitter.com/2el58HEZ8F

Shortly after, Drake took to Instagram to explain what the photo is.
No matter what the photo was from or the context of it, it was used by Pusha T to ‘clown’ the rapper and it clearly worked.
As we stated before, Drake, you’re on the clock!
