Drake appears to take swipes at his ex Rihanna in scathing new song Fear Of Heights: ‘The s*x was average’

Drake appeared to take multiple swipes at his ex Rihanna in the scathing lyrics of his newly released song Fear Of Heights.

The pop stars were trailed by on-and-off romance rumors from 2009 to 2018, and since their last split there has been conjecture that Drake failed to get over her.

On his new song, however, Drake, 36, insisted that he had moved on, sneering: ‘Why they make it sound like I’m still hung up on you? That could never be.’

He added: ‘Gyal can’t ruin me,’ which came across as if it might be a snide reference to Rihanna’s accent from her native Barbados.

As the song went on, he sniped that ‘the sex was average with you’ and even seemed to take aim at her current relationship with A$AP Rocky.

‘Better him than me, better it’s not me,’ raps Drake. ‘Yeah, that man, he still with you. He can’t leave you. Y’all go on vacation, I bet it’s Antilles.’

Rihanna and A$AP Rocky have in fact holidayed in the Lesser Antilles more than once, taking multiple couple’s trips to Barbados.

Since then, the couple have welcomed two children into the world together, which may account for Drake’s saying A$AP Rocky ‘can’t leave’ her.

Elsewhere in Fear Of Heights, Drake blares: ‘I’m anti, I’m anti,’ possibly in reference to Rihanna’s latest album Anti, which came out in 2016.

After a torrent of bile towards his ex, who goes unnamed throughout the verse, he insists: ‘And I had way badder b****es than you, TBH.’

Drake and Rihanna were first spotted locking lips in 2009, shortly after her split from Chris Brown, who had savagely beaten her to the point she had to be hospitalized.

Rihanna eventually briefly reunited with Chris, and maintained in public that she and Drake were merely friends with each other.

A wounded Drake reflected to the New York Times in 2010: ‘I was a pawn. You know what she was doing to me? She was doing exactly what I’ve done to so many women throughout my life, which is show them quality time, then disappear. I was like: “Wow, this feels terrible.”‘

The following year, he told Elle: ‘At the time it hurt, but she didn’t mean to. I’ll never put that on her. I was hurt because I started to slowly realize what it was.’

Over the next few years he struck a flowery tone in his public remarks about Rihanna, describing her as his ‘ultimate fantasy’ to Rolling Stone in 2014.

While presenting her with MTV Video Music Award in 2016, he rhapsodized that RIhanna was ‘someone I’ve been in love with since I was 22 years old.’

Later that year the pair of them acquired matching shark tattoos, intensifying the public perception that their relationship was more than platonic.

By May of 2018, however, their equation had cooled to the point that Rihanna told Vogue: ‘We don’t have a friendship now, but we’re not enemies either.’
