Everything to know about Masego and Drake's Champagne Poetry collaboration

Exactly why Micah Davis decided to hop on the Drake-diss bandwagon remained unknown at the time of writing this article. The former's decision to participate in the 'BBL Drizzy' contest surprised many, as he and Drake had collaborated on the Champagne Poetry track in 2021.

Drake sampled Davis' hit song Navajo in Champagne Poetry, with the latter being credited as the song's producer. Hence, fans assumed that the two artists were on good terms.

However, with Davis participating in the Drake-diss contest, many have taken to the internet to speculate what went wrong between the two. Hot New Hip Hop reported that some netizens believed Drizzy did not want Davis to receive royalties for sampling Navajo. The news outlet reported that one Reddit user believed Drizzy wanted to pay Davis through “exposure.”

The speculation remains unverified. It is also worth noting that Davis has seemingly confirmed that he was paid for the sampling. The musician had previously shown off his flashy necklace and said he bought it from Drake using Navajo.

Davis had also expressed excitement over the collaboration in the past. Hence, his latest music drop continues to take fans by surprise. Fans are now waiting for Drake to respond to the 'BBL Drizzy' contest.
