On Wednesday, Drake issued a statement addressing the cover art of Pusha-T's diss track "The Story of Adidon." The photograph by David Leyes depicts Drake in blackface. In his statement, Drake claimed the photograph was part of a series developed in collaboration with his friend Mazin Elsadig. "The photos represented how African Americans were once wrongfully portrayed in entertainment," the statement reads. "This was to highlight and raise our frustrations with not always getting a fair chance in the industry and to make a point that the struggle for black actors had not changed much."

Pusha-T has responded to Drake’s statement. “That doesn’t change my view at all,” he said during an appearance on Big Boy’s Neighborhood on Los Angeles’ Real 92.3 this morning. “You are silent on all black issues, Drake …
You don’t stand for nothing, you don’t say nothing about nothing. You have all the platform in the world. You were so passionate back then? No you weren’t. That’s number one. That’s what I know.”
