Drake and Rihanna’s rollercoaster of a relationship has been a tabloid staple for years. From their rumoured romance to their on-and-off collaborations, the two music giants have kept fans guessing about the true nature of their connection.

Now, with the release of Drake’s latest album, ‘For All The Dogs,’ fans are once again speculating that the rapper has taken a swipe at Rihanna in his song ‘Fear of Heights.’It seemed like the pair were destined to be music’s power couple. However, the relationship took a sour turn, and their breakup in 2016 left fans speculating about what went wrong.


 

FEAR OF HEIGHTS
The release of ‘Fear of Heights’ has ignited a fresh wave of speculation about Drake’s feelings toward Rihanna. Fans on social media platforms like Twitter have been quick to weigh in on the matter.

Some argue that Drake’s references to Rihanna’s albums, songs, and even her appearance in the lyrics are a clear diss. Others, however, feel that it’s time to let the past stay in the past.

PLEASE MOVE ON
One X user, @deemxreckless, commented, “Drake disses/makes references about Rihanna almost every album. At this point, it’s an ongoing trope in his music so who cares.” It’s true that Drake has a history of referencing his past relationships in his music, so this could be seen as just another chapter in their complicated story.

While Drake may be using his music to revisit his past with Rihanna, the Barbadian beauty has moved on and flourished in both her personal and professional life. Rihanna’s accomplishments since her breakup with Drake are nothing short of impressive.
She launched her highly successful makeup line, Fenty Beauty, which has been celebrated for its inclusive range of shades. In addition, she’s become a mother and earned an Oscar nomination for her role in ‘Guava Island.’

FEAR OF HEIGHTS
As @TheMimiReign aptly pointed out on X, “Rihanna ended her relationship with Drake years ago. Since then she’s started her own makeup line, had a family, and got nominated for an Oscar. I promise you she’s not worried about that man.”While fans may continue to speculate about their complicated history, Rihanna’s undeniable success post-Drake serves as a testament to her ability to rise above the drama and thrive in both her personal and professional life.

As for Drake, only time will tell if he chooses to let go of the past or continue to use his music to revisit it.
