Joe compared the Canadian crooner to J. Cole, saying: ‘Cole used to rap about kid s***, and then he started to grow up. And then the rapping sounded like an adult rapping. I want to hear adult Drake rapping for adult people. That’s my issue with him today.’

Drake (born Aubrey Graham) responded to Budden last Saturday by tagging him in the comments of DJ Akademiks’ Instagram post and telling him he ‘failed at music.’

Longtime nemesis: Drake (L) blasted retired rapper Joe Budden (R) for telling him to ‘grow up’ and criticizing his newly-released eighth studio album For All the Dogs – reigniting a feud that originated in 2016

The 43-year-old ‘Howard Stern of hip-hop’ said on The Joe Budden Podcast: ‘[Drake’s] rapping for the children! I had to look up how old this n**** was when I finished listening to the album. You gonna be 37 years old. Get the f*** away from some of these younger n****s, and stop f***ing these 25-year-olds’

You left it behind to do [podcasts] cause this is what actually pays your bills. For any artist watching this just remember you are watching a failure give their opinion on his idea of a recipe for success,’ the five-time Grammy winner wrote.

‘A quitter [gives] their opinion on how to achieve longevity. You switched careers cause the things that pop into your brain had you broke living cheque to cheque and the raps you write had 450 men showing up to your shows in dusty Enyce jeans to screw up their face to Mood Muzik 29 and pretend you are the GOAT.’

Indeed, the two-time Grammy nominee – who appeared on four seasons of VH1’s Love & Hip Hop: New York – hasn’t released a studio album since Rage & The Machine in 2016.

‘[Please] to any artist that’s doing what they feel is right don’t let these opinions affect your mindset after the fact,’ Drake urged others.

‘This guy is the poster child of frustration and surrendering. You retired and we never hung up your jersey. We don’t even remember your number. We know you for doing this. You withdrew from rap not cause you accomplished all you need to it’s cause it wasn’t working for you.’

The OVO Sound co-founder continued: ‘I never want anybody in the generations to think that the whole “everybody’s entitled to their opinion” is a real thing. This is a man projecting his own self hate and the fact I did and continue to do everything he wanted to do for himself.

‘If you need it put in simpler terms I own a 767… he owns a modest house in the 973 and flies first class on special occasions.’

Joe replied to Drake: ‘You’ll grow up sooner or later. Father time is undefeated.’
