Megan Thee Stallion has slammed those making light of her being shot after Drake made an apparent reference to her ordeal on his latest album.
Drake fans are in for a good weekend as the rapper released his new album, Her Loss, today (4 November) in collaboration with 21 Savage.
It comes after Drake and Savage previously appeared in a music video for their collaborative track 'Jimmy Cooks', which was on Drake’s solo LP, Honestly, Nevermind, and features 16 new songs for fans to sink their teeth in to.

Given that it's still early in the morning, many fans won't have even had chance to hit play on the first song, but Megan Thee Stallion has evidently caught wind of the ninth track, 'Circo Loco', and it doesn't seem like she's very impressed.
Drake appears to make a reference to the American rapper in one of the opening lines of the song, saying: "This b*tch lie 'bout getting shots, but she still a stallion / She don't even get the joke, but she still smiling."
Stallion has previously described being allegedly shot in the foot after a party in the Hollywood Hills in 2020, after which Tory Lanez was arrested and charged with assault with a firearm and carrying a loaded firearm in a vehicle.

Last month, a judge ordered Lanez to be placed on electronic monitoring and house arrest while he awaits trial on the charges.
Social media users picked up on the supposed reference in Drake's new album, with one writing: "… i’m actually disgusted how so many male artists are against megan. what are we on our third name drop? f*ck drake."
After the speculation about the track came to light, Stallion responded: "I know I’m very popular but y’all gotta stop attaching weak a*s conspiracy theories in bars to my name."
When a fan pointed out that Drake had used the word 'stallion' in his track, the rapper added: "A stallion is slang for a TALL THICK WOMAN."

Stallion then took to Twitter to say: "Stop using my shooting for clout."
"Since when tf is it cool to joke abt women getting shot !... Ready to boycott bout shoes and clothes but dog pile on a black woman when she say one of y’all homeboys abused her," she added.
She later shared another post apparently addressed to fans, saying that when the 'mf facts come out' they should remember that the rappers stood behind someone who 'shot a female'.

"People attack me y’all go up for it i defend myself now I’m doing too much … every time it never ends and this did NOT happen until I came out and said I got shot … y’all don’t [f*ck with me] okay cool f*ck it bye," she added in her most recent post.
UNILAD has attempted to contact representatives for Drake for comment.
