Drake is apologizing to any of his “friends” who he may have “disrespected” after an unreleased track of his, in collaboration with Future, was played during an OVO Instagram Live set on his account on Wednesday night. Some of the song’s lyrics suggest that Drake’s rumored fling with Kylie Jenner, wasn’t just a rumor. He raps: “Yeah, I’m a hater to society / Real sh-t, Kylie Jenner that’s a side piece / Yeah, I got 20 motherf—in’ Kylies.”

Hours after the track made headlines, Drake, 33, wrote the following explanation on his Instagram Story: “A song that Mark ran last night on night owl sound live set shouldn’t have been played. 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,” he said, adding, “Last thing I’d want to do is wake up having any friends of mine feeling disrespected so I just had to say that to start the day.”

Elsewhere in the track, Drake and Future mention Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid. “Yeah, I got 20 damn Kendalls / Young slim baddies and they in vogue / Yeah, I got 20 f–kin’ Gigis,” other lyrics read. Kylie, along with her sister Kendall and the pregnant model, have not addressed the song.
