A$AP Rocky Says He’d Fight Drake ‘Bare Knuckles Like the Irish’ Over Rihanna

The tension between A$AP Rocky and Drake just reached another level.

In a newly released teaser for The Jason Lee Show, Rocky was asked the question fans have debated for years: Would he actually fight Drake?

Without hesitation, Rocky responded, “Bare knuckle, like the Irish,” making it clear he wouldn’t back down from a physical showdown with the Toronto superstar.

The teaser, released on August 3, has already gone viral across social media, with fans dissecting every second ahead of the full interview, which is scheduled to air on August 5.

The long-running friction between the two rappers dates back to 2020, when Rocky began dating Rihanna, who had previously been romantically linked to Drake. Since then, fans have pointed to years of subliminal shots exchanged through interviews and music.

Most recently, Rocky appeared to take aim at Drake on “Stole Ya Flow,” while Drake seemingly fired back on “Burning Bridges” from his Iceman project, keeping their lyrical rivalry alive.

Now, Rocky’s latest comments have taken the feud beyond music, with many wondering if he’s serious—or simply adding more fuel to one of hip-hop’s biggest rivalries.

With the full interview just days away, fans are expecting even more bombshells from the Harlem rapper.
