Hip hop and rap star Drake referenced bitcoin in his newly released song amid his ongoing feud with fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar.
The Canadian superstar unexpectedly dropped the track “What Did I Miss” during a July 4 Youtube stream titled “ICEMAN EPISODE ONE,” where he portrayed a worker on break. The song addresses betrayal following his 2024 clash with Lamar, explicitly comparing former allies’ shifting loyalties to bitcoin’s volatility. Drake raps: “I look at this sh*t like a BTC / Could be down this week, then I’m up next week,” directly invoking the leading cryptocurrency’s price swings as a metaphor for unreliable relationships. The track, potentially part of an upcoming project named “Iceman,” marks one of bitcoin’s most prominent mentions in mainstream music, 16 years after the digital asset’s creation. No further details about the project were confirmed.
