In the text to Kendrick, which Macklemore posted on Instagram, he wrote, "You got robbed. I wanted you to win. It's weird and sucks that I robbed you." But Drake told Rolling Stone that supposed heartfelt message was "wack as f***."

"I was like, 'You won. Why are you posting your text message? Just chill. Take your W, and if you feel you didn't deserve it, go get better - make better music,'" he said. "It felt cheap. It didn't feel genuine. Why do that? Why feel guilt? You think those guys would pay homage to you if they won?"
