The next notable set of lines is "knocked that boy off and I don't want no credit". The most likely targets of those lines is Kanye and Pusha T because Drake previously accused them of lying about how the damaging information of his child leaked to Pusha.

He accuses nameless people of telling lies about him. Drake has been known to speak on other men's relationships with women in the past in beefs like he did with Pusha T and Meek Mill.ĭrake continues to fire his machine gun of lyrical bullets at his enemies in the second verse. As rumors of a possible divorce between Kanye and Kim come out, "what they had didn't last damn baby", could be be interpreted as an insulting comment on the breakdown of their relationship. " I know that they at the crib goin' crazy, down badĭrake further pushes this point in the above pre-chorus, saying that Kanye West is going crazy because of possible bad situations he might be going through. Recently we've seen him having mental breakdowns on stage, rumors of him breaking up with Kim Kardashians, and his relationship with GAP quickly go from great to bad.

Going back to the songs overall message, I believe Drake is mocking Kanye West and trying to say that he's "crying" because of bad situations affecting his life at the moment. The chorus is completely dedicated to Kanye West. The main point of this verse seems to be about moving on from endlessly beefing with Kanye West and Pusha T and how he's doing well in life compared to them. Drake is so tired of it all that he doesn't want to hear their songs played at parties he attends. In the first verse Drake makes it known that he's tired of constantly beefing and wants to move on from it. He reflects on his successful lifestyle while taking shots at them. Laugh Now Cry Later is like a victory song for Drake to celebrate surviving Kanye West and Pusha T's failed attempt at destroying him in 2018. As Drake said, "sometimes we laugh, sometimes we cry", but we should appreciate the good times and be happy in the moment saving the tears for later. My interpretation of this songs message is that life is always changing and never stays the same. Drake has recently taken a lot of inspiration from him and used his samples in songs like Lotta 42/Need Me, Intoxicated, Omerta, The title is probably inspired by Biggie who said "Laugh Now Cry Later" on Long Kiss Goodnight. I think Drake skillfully balanced this song with subliminal lyrics for the people who still care about lyricism and a victorious sound that many people will focus on. According to an Instagram post, “Laugh Now Cry Later” is from his next project, Certified Lover Boy.Laugh Now Cry later is an interestingly vague song with a lot of cryptic lyrics that might appear to be surface level to the casual listener. Now, though, he appears set to finally release a follow-up to Scorpion.

At the end of April, Drizzy released his Dark Lane Demo Tapes, although you have to go back to 2018’s Scorpionto locate his last studio album. Last week, he contributed two songs to Popcaan’s FIXTAPE, while July saw him pop off on “Only You Freestyle” with Headie One and team with DJ Khaled on “Popstar” and “Greece”. Say what you will about Drake, but few superstars put in as much time at the studio. Filmed at the Nike World Headquarters in Beaverton, Oregon, it features appearances from Kevin Durant and Odell Beckham Jr., among others.

The single comes paired with a star-studded music video that doubles as an ad for Nike. “Laugh Now Cry Later” teams Drizzy with Chicago’s Lil Durk, marking their first collaboration together. What’s more, he’s announced the release of a new studio album called Certified Lover Boy. That’s an eternity by the 6-God’s standards, but have no fear: He’s back with a new single “Laugh Now Cry Later”. It’s been weeks - weeks! - since Drake made a play for radio domination.
