Stephen A. Smith Says Drake Is Upset About The Comments He Made About Him

Last week Stephen A. Smith ripped Drake for taking legal action against UMG and Spotify over Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" diss song.

"This is a bad look," he said on his podcast. "It’s all smeared on Drake. All of it. This is Hip Hop, man. Somebody comes at you with lyrics, with a song, you’re supposed to come right back at them with a song, with lyrics."

Then in his latest podcast episode, the ESPN host suggested that Drake is mad about the criticism. 

So, he explained himself while doubling down on his belief that Drake needs to make another Kendrick diss song.

"I understand that Drake's a bit sensitive in these times. He's in his feelings," said Smith. "And I know that he has seen some of the things I have said about him on this show. I did not say or echo a single negative thing about you. What I said was fact. 'Not Like Us' got you ... You take it to the studio, you take it to the streets. It's not a crime for somebody to say, 'He got you' ... If you gon' rely on lawyers then it's not a good look. That ain't what Hip Hop is."

Any response to Smith's words?
