Mustard responded to social media intrigue with a clip from JAY-Z, sparking conversations online.
- Drake’s producer Gordo expressed surprise at being unfollowed on social media by Mustard.
- Gordo suggested Mustard’s headlining gig at Coachella might have influenced his decision.
- Mustard’s Instagram reply suggested criticism of unsolicited opinions.
- Even without directly mentioning Gordo, Mustard’s move seemed aimed at generating buzz.
The music industry was buzzing after Mustard’s Instagram response to Gordo’s comments. Gordo, a well-known producer for Drake, noted he’d been unfollowed by Mustard and took to social media to vent. He jested that headlining Coachella might have gone to Mustard’s head.
In a surprising twist, Mustard responded with a clip from JAY-Z in which the rapper questions the validity of opinions from those who’ve not achieved as much. Mustard added a caption: “We not the same,” suggesting that he and Gordo operate on different levels.
This isn’t the first time Mustard has made headlines in connection to Drake. Last November, Mustard was part of a memorable moment at Tyler, The Creator’s Camp Flog Gnaw, pretending to cue up a Drake track only to switch to a Kendrick Lamar hit, stirring the ongoing feud between the artists.
Mustard has openly criticized tactics used for attention, stressing the importance of sticking to quality music. He previously advised that making good music should be enough for success, indirectly referencing Drake’s moves.
Mustard’s relationship with Drake remains cool, with past interviews highlighting Mustard’s criticism of Drake’s character and clear decision not to collaborate with him again. He once labeled Drake as “a strange guy,” emphasizing differences in their professional approaches.
Mustard’s latest move adds another layer to the ongoing narrative in the world of hip hop.
