Rick Ross has reignited his longstanding feud with Drake by provocatively updating the cover art for his track Champagne Moments.
The new artwork, visible on major streaming platforms like Spotify and Apple Music, replaces the previous black-and-white image of a man resembling Drake with a cartoon depiction of the rapper sporting blond hair and a bow tie.
Fans have quickly voiced their displeasure with the new cover, labeling it a “downgrade” and “cringe-worthy” on social media.
The original artwork featured a yearbook photo of a white man who looked strikingly similar to Drake and seemed to resonate more with listeners.
The track, released in April, has Rick Ross launching a series of verbal assaults on Drake, specifically targeting his mixed heritage and alleged cosmetic surgeries.
