Drake Responds to T-Pain’s Criticism Over Longevity in Music: “This Guy Always Had Resentment”

Published July 6, 2025 by

6 God fires back after T-Pain suggests he should “gracefully bow out”

Drake has clapped back at T-Pain after the singer made comments suggesting the Canadian rapper should consider stepping back from music.

During a recent appearance on the Crash Dummies podcast, T-Pain called out what he saw as inconsistency in Drake’s career approach, referencing a past quote where Drake said he wanted to “gracefully bow out” rather than be “kicked out.” T-Pain contrasted that with what he sees as Drake’s refusal to let go:
“Drake is like, ‘No, listen. OK, I got another one. Y’all ain’t like that one? OK, real quick, just one more,’” he said.

Drake didn’t let the remarks slide, taking to Instagram to respond:
“This guy always had resentment for me [laughing emoji]. You can hear it every time he speaks on my name.”

T-Pain has been increasingly vocal about his opinions on Drake, previously alleging that the rapper’s collaborative album with PartyNextDoor, $ome $exy $ongs 4 U, was composed of leftover tracks from previous projects. He claimed:
“These are all the songs that didn’t make my previous albums. Go for it, bro. Put verses on these songs.”

Despite his recent criticisms, T-Pain has kept his distance from the rap civil war between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, saying bluntly:
“Drake or Kendrick? I choose to mind my fucking business.”

As the back-and-forth between the two artists continues, fans are left wondering if this tension will spill into music—or remain a war of words online.
