Controversy
The song generated controversy due to Drake's lyrics about DRAM and Ice Spice, saying ("Try to bring the dram' to me / He ain't know how we 'Cha Cha Slide'") towards DRAM, referencing the "Cha-Cha" and “Hotline Bling” drama in 2015, and ("She a 10 tryin' to rap, it's good on mute") towards Ice Spice, referencing her Twitter post "At least ima 10".[3][4][5][6] DRAM responded on Twitter, calling out Drake in a video, saying, "I pressed his ass! His fucking bodyguards, goddamn—I ain't gonna hold you, his bodyguards went to town on the kid. But his bodyguards did, not his bitch-ass! He ain't touch me, he's a bitch. You know that."[6][7] Ice Spice followed up by saying nothing happened between her and Drake and that the line wasn't about her in an interview with Ebro in the Morning.[3][8][9]
