After causing quite the controversy after leaking part of his Kendrick Lamar diss, Drake has officially released “Push Ups” to streaming platforms.
Nearly a week after the rapper, who released a snippet in response to Lamar’s track “Like That” with Metro Boomin, released the official cover art for the single.
The artwork features a shoe-size which is gesturing toward one of the lines on the track about Lamar.
“How the f— you big steppin’ with a size-seven men’s on?” he raps, referencing the title of Lamar’s 2022 album “Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers.”
Drake had many on social media talking after a small piece of “Push Ups” leaked on Saturday April 13, featuring a sample from Junior M.A.F.I.A.’s “Get Money.”
Many thought the track was artificial intelligence, but a full track later came out leading many to believe it was real.

“Push Ups” had responses from those including Rick Ross, who was dissed on the song and dropped “Champagne Moments” hours after Drake’s track was found online.
Ross claimed that Drake had gotten a nose job in the track, and soon after, he even trolled Drake by performing wearing a hoodie with his face on it.
J.Cole started a majority of the diss track saga when he was featured on Lamar’s track “First Person Shooter” a collaboration with Drake off last year’s “For All the Dogs.
Lamar didn’t take kindly to the designation, firing back at both emcees with a surprise appearance on “Like That,” included on Future and Metro’s “We Don’t Trust You” that released last month.
J. Cole responded to the track with “7 Minute Drill” on his own surprise project “Might Delete Later.”
Yet, he quickly got cold feet, revealing that he thought it was the “lamest shit I ever did.” Just a week after he dropped “7 Minute Drill,” he removed the track from streaming services.
