Drake’s history of referencing Kim Kardashian in his music
Drake has talked about Kim Kardashian in his music for a long time. His 2018 song “In My Feelings” has the popular line “Kiki, do you love me?” Many fans thought that the singer was making a reference to Kardashian in the song because Kardashian’s family sometimes calls her “Kiki.” In a song called “Wants and Needs” from 2021, Drake made several mentions to the mother of four.

Lilah, on the other hand, is a new artist who is known for her soulful sound and outspoken power. She has called herself a mystery, a painter, and a fan of Shakespeare, and the way she writes about women in her songs shows a different kind of femininity. Lilah wants to make a world where women artists can be rock stars, which means they have to be bold and rebellious.
Drake’s connection with Kim Kardashian is still being talked about, but now that we know who Lilah is, things have changed again. It’s not clear if the Canadian rapper will keep mentioning the reality star in his songs, but one thing is certain: Lilah is an artist to keep an eye on in the coming months.
