Metro Boomin Reveals “Deeply Hurt” Feelings Over Personal Feud with Drake

Metro Boomin is sharing rare insights into a personal falling-out with Drake that left him deeply hurt and disappointed. In an upcoming GQ interview via Billboard teased by Elliott Wilson, the producer opened up about the feud while discussing his collaborations with Future and the viral tensions between Drake and Kendrick Lamar.

Metro kept the details of his issue with the Toronto rapper private but made it clear that it wasn’t over anything trivial. “Me and [Drake], we had a personal issue, and for the record, not over no girl or nothing silly like that,” Metro said. “It was a personal issue that really hurt me and disappointed me.”

The hitmaker went on to describe the situation as something many people can relate to, even without the spotlight of fame. “If you take all the rap entertainment out of it, it’s like, have you ever been real cool with somebody, and y’all fell out over something? It happens every day. It’s just regular sht. This just happens to have an audience.”*

In the conversation, Metro also reflected on his regretful reaction to the fallout. He admitted he lashed out at Drake on X/Twitter, something he now wishes he handled differently. “Now I did have my moment online, which I do regret. I should have been stronger than that. That was out of character for me,” Metro shared. “But at a certain point, it’s like, I don’t rap, bro, so you’re going to just sht on me on all of these songs… I’m not going to get in the booth, so I’m finna tweet at you.”*

This honest revelation shows a different side of Metro Boomin, highlighting the emotional toll of navigating friendships and feuds in the public eye. While he didn’t provide specifics, fans are left speculating about the root of the conflict and whether the two can ever reconcile.
