Is this Drake’s response to Kanye West beef?

Drake appeared to laugh off Kanye West’s furious Twitter tirade against him, which saw him target the Canadian rapper over an eight-hour period.

West accused Drake of threatening his family as he reignited their feud in front of his 28.8 million Twitter followers on Thursday night.

West branded Drake “faker than wrestling” and blasted him for dissing his Adidas Yeezy Boost 350 trainers on French Montana collaboration No Stylist.

He tweeted: “Still need that apology for mentioning the 350s and trying to take food out your idols kids mouths.”

Drake appeared to respond to the accusations, posting a string of crying with laughter emojis on his Instagram story.

West accused Drake of “threatening the safety of him and his family,” before telling him to “leave him and his family alone”.

He warned the Canadian star away from his children North, five, Saint, three and 10-month-old Chicago who he shares with wife Kim Kardashian.

“So Drake if anything happens to me or anyone from my family you are the first suspect. So cut the tough talk.”

West also referenced the violent incident at Pusha T’s gig last month in a bid to back up his claims Drake is threatening. Concert-goers rushed the stage which saw one victim left in a critical condition after being stabbed.

Kardashian leapt to her husband’s defence, reiterating his claims that Drake has been ‘threatening’.

She tweeted: “@drake Never threaten my husband or our family. He paved the way for there to be a Drake.

“My husband is the most brilliant person, the most genius person that I know. He has broken so many boundaries, everything from music, stage design, fashion and culture and will continue to change the world.”

Representatives for Drake declined to comment.
