Drake released a whopping three albums Thursday night and threw shots in DJ Khaled‘s way in one of the tracks off his planned Ice Man record.

In the track “Make Them Pay,” which serves as the seventh song on Ice Man, the rapper called out the Palestinian producer by name, criticizing him for not speaking out in support of Palestine.

“And, Khaled, you know what I mean / The beef was fully live, you went halal and got on your deen / And your people are still waitin’ for a free Palestine / But apparently everything isn’t black and white and red and green, damn / I’m seein’ everyone’s true colors, for real, I’m sensin’ a theme,” Drake raps on the song.

Reps for DJ Khaled, whose mother and father were both born in Palestine and immigrated to the United States, have not yet responded to The Hollywood Reporter‘s request for comment.

But the prolific producer shared a post on Instagram Friday, where he did not directly address Drake’s new song, but wrote, “LET GOD RISE AND ALL HIS ENEMIES SCATTER.”

“They stand against you and hating me,” he wrote in the post, quoting Sizzla’s “Dem A Wonder.” “Dem just caant go through dem heart nuh clean nor free [sic] I remind dem so much of who they are supposed to be I am of royalty dem lost dem identity.”

Drake’s new album Ice Man was much anticipated by fans, set to mark his first solo release amid the fallout of his feud with Kendrick Lamar. However, he surprisingly dropped two additional albums, entitled Maid Of Honour and Habibti, releasing roughly 149 minutes of new music across all the records.
