【Watch The Fearless Online】

The Watch The Fearless Onlinelatest chapter in the long-standing feud between Drake and Pusha-T arrived on Tuesday evening, and boy, it's a doozy.

Their issues with one another began back in 2011, after years of tension between Pusha and Lil Wayne, Drake's mentor. (Complexhas a solid explainer of the full history behind the trio's feud.)

The beef picked back up last week with the release of Pusha's new album, featuring a song titled "Infrared" that includes a slight against Drake. In response, Drake dropped a diss track titled "Duppy Freestyle."

Those tracks cover relatively tame subjects, focusing more on Drake's alleged ghostwriter and Pusha's past drug dealings, respectively.

This recent blow, courtesy of Pusha, is a lot harsher. His brand new diss track, "The Story of Adidon" -- dropped Tuesday night -- has raised the stakes significantly higher.

The track is a ruthless attack on the 6 God that claims to reveal a lot about Drake, including a reference to the rapper's alleged secret child. It's also incredibly messy, so let's sift through it together.

Let's talk about the song itself

First things first: If the production sounded familiar to you at all, that's because Pusha is rapping on the same instrumental as Jay-Z's "The Story of OJ," off of Jay's critically acclaimed 2017 album 4:44.

On "Adidon," Pusha goes for it, no holds barred, naming Drake's parents, their failed marriage, and the impact that might have had on the rapper. As Pusha told Power 105.1 FM's Breakfast Club on Wednesday morning, he felt justified in rapping about Drake's personal life because of a line in "Duppy Freestyle" where the rapper mentioned Pusha's fiancé by name.

"That alone causes all bets to be off," Pusha explained in the interview.

Pusha also addresses Drake reckoning with his own blackness in the song.

"Confused, always felt you weren't Black enough/Afraid to grow it 'cause your 'fro wouldn't nap enough," he raps, referencing Drake discussing his afro on the MTV show When I Was 17.

But there's one topic brought up in the song that set Twitter timelines ablaze: Drake's alleged son with a woman named Sophie Brussaux (her now-private Instagram handle was mentioned in the song).

"You are hiding a child, let that boy come home/Deadbeat mothafucka, playin' border patrol/Adonis is your son and he deserves more than an Adidas press run, that's real Love that baby, respect that girl, forget she's a porn star, let her be your world," Pusha raps.

Brussaux, a painter and former adult actress who performed under the name Rosee Divine, was spotted publicly with Drake once in 2017. Soon after that, TMZ reported that Brussaux received alleged text messages from the rapper telling her he wanted her to have an abortion. According to Vulture, she gave birth to a baby boy on October 24, 2017 — which happens to be Drake's birthday. Yikes.

Drake has mentioned babies in songs before, most recently on the song "Sacrifices" off of his 2017 playlist More Life.

"I got no baby on the way," he rapped.

As of Wednesday, he has not publicly commented on rumors that he is the father of Brussaux's child.

But wait...what does a baby have to do with Adidas?

In the song, Pusha references "an Adidas press run," saying that Drake's alleged son Adonis deserves more than that. In his Breakfast Club interview, he breaks the line down, explaining that it references a rumored deal Drake has allegedly secured with Adidas.

"Allegedly his new line [with] Adidas is called 'Adidon' which is named after Adonis, his son," Pusha claims. "We couldn't know about your child until you started selling sweatsuits and sneakers?"

If the Adidas rumor is true (GQ speculated on a Drake deal with the company in March), Pusha has effectively ruined the rollout and all search engine optimization of the brand by naming this diss track "The Story of Adidon." (We've reached out to Adidas for comment.)

Like I said, this stuff is messy.

The track's cover art is also important here

Probably one of the most striking parts of this song isn't in the production or lyrics itself — it's in the photograph that accompanied the track. It's an image that appears to show Drake in blackface, taken by photographer David Leyes, who has since removed it from his own website after tweeting at Pusha's manager to remove the image from his social media pages. Leyes' tweet has since been deleted.

In a tweet featuring the photo posted Tuesday night that links to Leyes' website, Pusha wrote, "Please stop referring to this picture as 'artwork' ... I'm not an internet baby, I don't edit images ... this is a REAL picture ... these are his truths, see for yourself."

Though the image is still up on Pusha's Twitter account, the image was removed from his Instagram page because, according to a note from Instagram sent to Pusha, "a third party reported that the content infringes or otherwise violates their rights."

Some fans online and outlets like XXL incorrectly theorized that the image might have been part of a campaign for Toronto clothing company Too Black Guys, which released a "Jim Crow Couture" line back in 2008. Posts from back then on Drake's blog, "October's Very Own," also show him modeling other shirts for the company.

But in a statement posted to Drake's Instagram story on Wednesday night, he clarified that the images were actually from a 2007 "project about young black actors struggling to get roles, being stereotyped and type cast."

"This was to highlight and raise our frustrations with not always getting a fair chance in the industry and to make a point that the struggle for black actors had not changed much," he wrote in the statement.

While Leyes distanced himself via Instagram comments from the idea behind the shoot, the photographer did stand by the image.

"For sure I took it!!!," he wrote on Instagram. "I'm proud to be part of a strong statement made by a black man about the fucked up culture he is living in."

So, what does Drake have to say about all of this?

While Drake has since responded to the blackface photograph, he yet to address the validity of all those baby rumors.

Drake's go-to producer and collaborator Noah "40" Shebib also responded Tuesday night to a low-blow lyric that referenced 40's battle with multiple sclerosis.

"OVO 40, hunched over like he 80, tick, tick, tick/How much time he got? That man is sick, sick, sick," Pusha raps.

40's response?

"Coincidentally ... tomorrow is World MS Day," he wrote on Twitter.

This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed.

Meanwhile, Drake will embark on his "Aubrey and the Three Amigos Tour" this summer, and perhaps we'll get glimpses of the beef played out in real-time on the road, similar to what he pulled on Meek Mill back in 2015.

Regardless, on "The Story of Adidon," Pusha raps that "it's about to be a surgical summer," so get ready — there's no telling what's coming as the months get hotter.

UPDATE: May 31, 2018, 9:41 a.m. EDT This story has been updated to include new information from Drake's statement regarding the blackface photograph that accompanied "The Story of Adidon."
