For All the Dogs came out on October 6, and fans quickly noticed that Drake, 36, couldn’t resist referring to his past relationship in his lyrics, according to Billboard.

Drake and Rihanna reportedly had an on/off relationship between 2009-2016.

The rapper famously professed his love for Rihanna on stage at the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards, but didn’t get the warmest reception from the Fenty Beauty mogul.

In 2018, Rihanna suggested that the duo were no longer close, saying: “We don’t have a friendship now, but we’re not enemies either. It is what it is,” during an interview with Vogue.

However, while Rihanna suggested that she was unconcerned about their drifting apart, Drake’s new raps hint that he feels differently.

In his song Fear of Heights, Drake kicks off by repeating the word “Anti,” which is the name of one of Rihanna’s albums, before saying: “That man, he still with you, he can’t leave you. Y’all go on vacation, I bet it’s Antilles,” referring to Rihanna’s native Barbados.

By “that man,” Drake is likely referring to A$AP Rocky, 35, with whom Rihanna shares two children.

Then, on the song Virginia Beach, Drake drops the name of the school Rihanna has an honorary degree from, rapping: “Drawin’ conclusions like you got a Parsons degree or something. I coulda treated you better, that’s crazy.”

He also calls out A$AP Rocky directly in another track, Another Late Night, using his nickname Pretty Flacko: “I ain’t Pretty Flacko. B***h this s**t get really Rocky.”

On X, formerly known as Twitter, many album listeners were shocked to hear Drake drop so many Rihanna reference years after their fling.

One wrote: “Rihanna is now a happily married mother of TWO and drake is still throwing subs at her…”

A second added: “He’s so bitter like it’s been years…”

“Drake still crying about Rihanna 7 years later we tired,” said another.

A fourth social media user slammed: “Drake dissing Rihanna??? he’s a loser man.”

Another fan blasted: “Drake dissed Rihanna and Asap Rocky and that only means one thing, it still hurts him enough to disgrace himself to the public after 6 years. I didn’t think I’d ever say this but, Drake, you flopped.”

“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,” a sixth commenter noted.

In summer, a source told The U.S. Sun that Drake took over the exclusive private member’s club Zero Bond’s screening room and outfitted it as his own recording studio while he was in New York City recently.

To bring For All the Dogs to life, the artist reportedly worked round the clock while in the city.

The insider divulged: “Drake would wake up super early, go to Zero Bond to record, then he would go perform his massive concerts at Madison Square Garden and Barclays and then go back to the club and keep at it late into the night.

“He turned the screening room at Zero Bond into a state-of-the-art studio. He brought his producers there and recorded most of the album there. Travis Scott even came in and did a verse.”

They explained: “This part of the club is becoming a space for creatives who are seeking discretion.

“It’s a screening room, but it’s becoming more in demand with various artists and even top podcasters. It fits a little over 100 people, it’s private but intimate.”
