Drake news is really heating up now that the champagne of ginger ales, Canada Dry, has been dragged into a weeks-long feud between Drizzy and his rival, the tweed hat aficionado and popular rapper Common. Back in December, Common called Drake “soft” on his song “Sweet,” and Drake eloquently responded with, “Just ’cause I sing, I’m not no bitch” at a concert in L.A. We think that’s a pretty tame reaction, but Common is now firing back with a rhyme in a remix of a Rick Ross track: “I’m taking too long with this amateur guy/You ain’t wet nobody, n---a, you Canada Dry.” This battle has generated some choice tweets, and Drake’s face has been added to Wikipedia’s Canada Dry entry (we’re jealous), but while these rappers continue an ego-filled feud, we’re left thirsty. Canada Dry, 1; petty rappers, 0.
