Kim Kardashian warns Drake not to 'threaten my husband or our family' amid his feud with Kanye West
Kanye West has called in the big guns during his feud with Drake: his wife, Kim Kardashian.
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star took to Twitter early Friday to put Drizzy on blast in two tweets sent out to her 59 million followers. She basically said that her rapper husband is a “genius” trailblazer, and without him paving the way, there would be no Drake. But she said it with KiKi flair.
My husband is the most brilliant person, the most genius person that I know. He has broken so many boundaries, everything from music, stage design, fashion and culture and will continue to change the world.

@drake Never threaten my husband or our family. He paved the way for there to be a Drake.

The long-burning feud between the men exploded earlier this year after Pusha T’s Drake-dis track exposed his secret love child. Drake thought Kanye was the one to tell Pusha, who is on Kanye’s label, about the child’s existence. Kanye denied it. Then Drake seemed to hit back with his single “In My Feelings,” which included a line, “Kiki, do you love me?” which people assumed — and Drake didn’t deny — was about Kim.
But it really picked up again Thursday when Kanye posted a screenshot from “Free” that said, “Drake sent in a clearance request for ‘Say What’s Real.’ Do you wanna clear it?” While it’s Drake’s song, Kanye produced it, so Drake needs his clearance to sample it. That set off Kanye.

By “set off,” we mean that Kanye went off in a 17-tweet spree explaining why he wouldn’t clear it. He brought up Drake’s dis track against him — and said Drake shaded his sneakers.
Still need that apology for mentioning the 350s and trying to take food out your idols kids mouths

I would never intentionally try to hurt you bro I never even heard none of the diss records That ain’t my MO never did a diss record

Yeezy insisted he didn’t tell Pusha about the baby.
I told you I ain’t tell Pusha about your son

Kanye was also hot about Drake’s allegedly buying out the first two rows at a Pusha show in Toronto and paying fans to throw beer at him during the performance.
Buying first two rows at Pusha show got me hot bro

At the end of the whole thing, Kanye wouldn’t clear the song.
By the way… not cleared😂

We guess Drake found this amusing?
But if Drake was laughing on the outside, he was fired up on the inside. Kanye claims Drake called to threaten him.
Drake called trying to threatened me
— ye (@kanyewest) December 14, 2018
And Kanye said, among other things, that if something happened to him, police should look at Drake.
So drake if anything happens to me or anyone from my family you are the first suspect So cut the tough talk

He was the one who first said that there would be no Drake without Kanye, the line Kim later borrowed in her defense.
You trying to be a bully. I never been bullied in my life and I never will be. That’s why I made it this far in a pink polo
— ye (@kanyewest) December 14, 2018
Ye never been easy. I navigated these waters before you. That’s why you could be you
— ye (@kanyewest) December 14, 2018
There would never be a drake without a Kanye west so never come out your mouth with a threat
— ye (@kanyewest) December 14, 2018
Ye said he wanted to talk to Drake face to face.
Drake I’m not going to physically fight you like it’s MTV boxing
— ye (@kanyewest) December 14, 2018
We need to show the world that we will speak without someone ending up dead or in jail
— ye (@kanyewest) December 14, 2018
But that didn’t really work. Then Kanye started mentioning his kids and urging Drake to leave his family alone.
Never threatened north and saint and Chicago’s daddy bro
— ye (@kanyewest) December 14, 2018
Leave me and my family alone bro
— ye (@kanyewest) December 14, 2018
You threatened the safety of me and my family
— ye (@kanyewest) December 14, 2018
And the tweets went on (you can see them all here). After Kanye mentioned his family being threatened, that’s when Kim jumped in to shut it all down.
But she may have encouraged it to blow up into something even bigger. Yep, we think it’s just going to become more explosive from here. Buckle up.
