Drake and Jay Z have been throwing jabs at each other lately. Drizzy dissed Hov for rapping about high end art during his interview with Rolling Stone earlier this year. Roc Nation's CEO responded by calling Drake "Mrs Drizzy" on Jay Electronica's remix of Soulja Boy's "We Made It."
During today's game between Drake's hometown Toronto Raptors and the Brooklyn Nets, the OVO boss joined the discussion between TSN commentators Matt Devlin and Jack Armstrong and threw what some are considering a shot at Jay
"It's a red-hot revival in here tonight. It's the uprising, man. KG [Kevin Garnett] is frustrated, the young boys are out tonight. This is the people's team, the Toronto Raptors. Jay Z is somewhere eating a fondue plate," he said.
Fondue is a delicious dish made of various melted cheeses usually eaten with garlic bread. It's served at certain restaurants as an appetizer.
It's not high end and it's really good so would this be classified as a diss or a failed attempt at a joke?
Listen below and let us know what you think.

Los Angeles based rapper Christ Bearer of the group Northstar has apparently attempted suicide in North Hollywood, California.
Christ, real name Andre Johnson, was found critically injured at 1 a.m. Wednesday, April 16. TMZ reports that the rapper had cut off his own penis prior to jumping from the second floor of an apartment building.
Christ and his rhyming partner Meko The Pharaoh were signed to Wu Tang Clan leader RZA's record label at one point. The California duo released an album in 2004 entitled Bobby Digital Presents: Northstar.
Christ is currently in Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. No word on whether doctors have attempted to reattach his penis or his current condition.
**UPDATE**
TMZ caught up with Rugged Monk and Crisis Tha Sharpshooter from the group Black Knights to find out what they saw when Christ Bearer mutilated himself. Both men were at the apartment at the time. One of them saw him jump off of the balcony.
They saw Christ on the ground yelling and bleeding. EMS, police and helicopters soon arrived on the scene. They were understandably reluctant to go into the gory details of what they witnessed.
The Northstar rapper has previously collaborated with the Black Knights on music.
**UPDATE** April 19
We've learned that drugs played a major role in the unfortunate incident involving Christ Bearer earlier this week. E! Online reports that the rapper ingested PCP in the moments before things spiraled out of control.
PCP, known by the street names, Angel Dust, Embalming Fluid, Water, Wet, Killer Weed, Rocket Fuel, Supergrass, Wack, Sherm and Ozone, is known to cause hallucinations, paranoia, schizophrenia, generalized numbness of the extremities and poor muscular coordination and delusions when used.
It comes in liquid or powder forms. Users snort, inject, swallow or apply it to weed and cigarettes.
A source to E! Online says Christ Bearer used a serrated steak knife to first cut off the tip of his penis, before removing his testicles and the rest of his genitalia.
Police were called to the scene and tried to talk the rapper down from the 2nd floor apartment. He said "OK" then jumped off the balcony. He was taken to the hospital in serious condition. Doctors were unable to reattach his private parts.
"What Christ Bearer did was unfathomable. I feel for his family at this time," said Heathcliff Berru, Northstar's representative.

A Texas inmate with the critical thinking ability of a first-grader has been waiting some 34 years for a new trial. And now he'll wait some more.
In a recent ruling, a judge decided that Jerry Hartfield's constitutional right to a speedy trial had not been violated — despite being imprisoned since 1980 on a murder conviction that had been overturned — because, in essence, Hartfield did not ask for a new trial.
Judge Craig Estlinbaum found the state had been negligent in failing to retry the 56-year-old man, and that his ability to adequately defend himself had diminished over time, but he ultimately ruled Hartfield was responsible for his own incarceration because he failed to seek a new trial.
The decision is the latest in a series of confusing and baffling proceedings that have kept the Bay City man behind bars since his 1976 conviction for robbing and killing a bus station worker in 1976.
Hartfield, whose IQ has been estimated at 51, claims he is innocent and that police used a false confession against him. He was sentenced to death, but his conviction was overturned in 1980 by the Texas Court of Criminal Appeal, which ruled a juror had been improperly dismissed for voicing concerns about capital punishment.
Prosecutors twice tried to persuade the court to reconsider that ruling, but failed.
And then things began to legally fall apart for Hartfield.
Then-Gov. Mark White, at the urging of prison officials, commuted Hartfield's sentence from death to life imprisonment in 1983. Whether he had been informed that Hartfield's conviction had been overturned is not known, according to Hartfield's current attorney, Jeffrey Newberry of the Texas Innocence Project.
What is now known, however, is that the governor's commutation was issued in error, Newberry said.
"He couldn't commute the sentence because there was nothing left to commute," Newberry told the Daily News Friday. "Mr. Hartfield should have had a new trial. But he didn't get one."
He didn't get one because he had no legal counsel after his trial.
"So he just sat there," Newberry said.
Fast-forward to 2006, when a fellow inmate told Hartfield that he should have received a new trial after his conviction was overturned.
"Someone helped him write documents on his own saying 'Hey, I never got my new trial,''' Newberry said. Eventually, his handwritten legal filings resulted in him receiving a court-appointed attorney while he fought to be released.
Over the next eight years, his case bounced from federal court to state courts. Meanwhile, the murder weapon, a pick-axe, has been lost and witnesses have died.
In a jailhouse interview last year, Hartfield said he was not angry about what happened to him.
Jerry Hartfield was originally sentenced to Texas’ death chamber, seen here in Huntsville. His conviction was later overturned, but he remains behind bars.
He became a Christian behind bars, he said. “Being a God-fearing person, he doesn’t allow me to be bitter,” Hartfield said. “He allows me to be forgiving.” Newberry said he is appealing last week's most recent ruling in Hartfield's case.
He disputes Judge Estlinbaum assertion that no evidence was submitted of Hartfield's mental incapacity. He also disputes the logic of the decision, saying the judge essentially ruled "Mr. Hartfield's right to a speedy trial had not been violated … because the fact that he waited (to request a new trial) was an indication that he didn't want a new trial," Newberry said.
Separate proceedings to retry the criminal case are also underway, the attorney said. A hearing on that matter is scheduled for next month.

In October 2012, we posted a story about Amanda Todd. She was 15-years old at the time she committed suicide after being stalked and blackmailed into exposing herself on webcam by someone she had never met.
Amanda Todd
This horror story began when Amanda was in the seventh grade. She went into an online chat room and made the mistake of giving into a guy's request to expose her breasts on webcam. Fast forward a year later and the man somehow tracked her down on Facebook. He knew where she lived, her relatives names and what school she attended. He told her if she didn't continue to expose herself he would send photos of her breasts to everyone she knew.
Amanda did as she was told, but her stalker sent compromising photos to everyone she knew anyway. After being bullied by schoolmates, attempting suicide and changing schools, Amanda made a video using note cards to describe her ordeal.
I'm struggling to stay in this world, because everything just touches me so deeply. I'm not doing this for attention. I'm doing this to be an inspiration and to show that I can be strong. I did things to myself to make pain go away, because I'd rather hurt myself then someone else. Haters are haters but please don't hate, although im sure I'll get them. I hope I can show you guys that everyone has a story, and everyones future will be bright one day, you just gotta pull through. I'm still here aren't I ?
-AmandaTodd
The video was uploaded on September 7, 2012. On October 10, 2012, Amanda committed suicide at her home in Port Coquitlam, British Columbia, Canada.
It's taken a while, but police have finally made an arrest in the case. A 35-year old Dutch man, identified as only as "Aydin C" because of Dutch privacy laws, is in police custody.
According to the New York Daily News, Ayden C has been arrested in the Netherlands and charged with extortion, luring, criminal harassment and possession of child pornography for the purpose of distribution.
"This is truly a day we have been waiting for," said Carol Todd, Amanda's mother
Carol Todd
Ayden C was taken into custody in January 2014. However, the news of his arrest and connection to Amanda is just now being reported.
"The suspicions against the man are that he approached underage girls via the Internet and then seduced them into performing sexual acts in front of a webcam," prosecutors said in a statement. "He is suspected of subsequently pressurizing them to participate in making new material."
Dutch police suspect he has victimized girls in the U.S., Britain, Canada and the Netherlands.
Ayden C is also accused of blackmailing men by pretending to be an underage boy and convincing them to perform sex acts on camera, then threatening to turn them over to police.
Canadian authorities want to extradite Ayden C and prosecute him for the crimes committed against Amanda, but Dutch officials say he must go through the legal process there first.
His lawyer, Christian van Dijk, said he doesn't think prosecutors have enough evidence to convict his client.
"Prosecutors seem to think they have a big fish here, but if I see the evidence, it's not much," he said. "Lots of references to IP addresses and such."
Amanda's cry for help can be viewed below. Her mother hopes the video will help others who are being bullied.

To celebrate the 20th anniversary of Nas's classic album, Illmatic, the Los Angles Leakers have re-released their 2008 Skillmatic mixtape, which features many of Nasir's best joints.
Tomorrow is the 20 year anniversary of possibly the BEST Hip-Hop album (depending who you ask) EVER recorded, Illmatic. With that, we wanted to re-release a tape we did with Nas back in 2008, before we were the “L.A. Leakers,” before we had Twitter or Instagram, and before we had any sense of what a good intro sounded like…. Haha! This was what first gave us the idea to do our audio-biographies that we do. We didn’t fully have the idea down yet, but going back and listening made us want to know stories more in detail and that’s when we did our first REAL audio-biography. Pass this along to all the Nas fans you know, they’ll enjoy it for sure. Congrats to Nas on 20 years! By the way, if you got a hard copy of this, you’re a SUPER O.G.
