Drake does some damage control after an old song leaks, where he refers to Kylie Jenner as his side piece.

Drake has been previewing a bunch of unreleased songs via OVO Mark's live-streams on Night Owl Sound. This week, he played an older track that was leaked by him and Future, where he references Kylie Jenner and calls her his "side piece." Of course, with all the rumors surrounding those two, the story got picked up and circulated like wildfire. 

"Yeah, I’m a hater to society / Real shit, Kylie Jenner that’s a side piece / Yeah, I got 20 motherfuckin’ Kylies," raps Drake on the song.

He has since responded to the talk about his lyrics, apologizing and claiming that the track never should have been played.

"A song that mark ran last night on night owl sound live set shouldn't have been played," he wrote on Instagram Stories. "It's a song that leaked 3 years ago and got scrapped shortly after. He was just going too deep in the drake/future catalogue. Last thing I'd want to do is wake up and have any friends of mine feeling disrespected so I just had to say that to start off the day."

Drake is close friends with Kylie Jenner and he has collaborated in the past with Travis Scott. His explanation is likely out of respect to them after this was blown out of proportion.

What do you think of his clarification?
