After Drake's Views came out in April, Budden - who's known to pick fights with other rap peers online - devoted an episode of his I’ll Name This Podcast Later to his underwhelming feelings about the album, calling it "uninspired." It's fitting that 2016's most meh celebrity beef started with a podcast episode. Here's how we reached today's Drake/Eminem tipping point.

However, unlike the straightforward narrative of Drake and Meek's timeline - which started after Meek accused Drake of using ghostwriters - this most recent beef, which also involves the rapper Joe Budden, is a little murkier. Now, Drizzy finds himself at the center of more drama, which reached a new peak today with (fake) rumors that Eminem is preparing his own takedown of the Views rapper. This time last year, Drake and Meek Mill were beginning their seemingly-endless rap beef by trading diss tracks and subtweets.
