It seems the spotlight on Drake isn’t dimming anytime soon, as Freddie Gibbs is calling foul on the Canadian rapper’s new album, PartyNextDoor.
Freddie is claiming ownership of the rabbit imagery on the $ome $exy $ongs 4 U’s.
The Indiana native took to X, to make his case, stating: “Damn they even stole the rabbits too. I’m flattered,” Gibbs typed, referring to the back of the joint LP’s cover that features three cartoon rabbits.
Gibbs even went as far as reposting his announcement for $oul $old $eparately from 2022 and then quote tweeting it with, “$$$4u”—the abbreviation for Drizzy’s new comeback album.

Many hip-hop fans have come to associate the rabbit as the unofficial official mascot for Freddie Gibbs.
Gibbs claiming ownership of the imagery comes as he has released a slew of songs using the furry animal as a motif, including tracks like “Big Boss Rabbit,” “Space Rabbit,” “Rabbit Island,” and “Rabbit Vision.”
Interestingly enough, “Rabbit Vision” serves as track nine on his latest album, $oul $old $eparately, whose title follows the exact dollar sign alliteration motif that Party and Drizzy used on their Valentine’s Day effort.
This image of Drake’s new project didn’t go unnoticed by Freddie or his fans.
Gibbs is not the only artiste to call Drake out for allegedly stealing material for $ome $exy $ongs 4 U.
Canada-based rapper John River took to social media with his own qualms.
In a series of posts, River called out PND for stealing the iconic Monroe Towers album cover idea straight from the imagery of River’s Hope City II video.
John posted a lengthy statement to his Instagram Story claiming that the R&B singer studied his aesthetic extensively before telling the rapper that the use of the towers in the background was “innovative & iconic.”
The 30-year-old called out the duo’s predatory behavior and claimed that Party asserted he would “blackball” him if he didn’t write or work for him.
