@@downlikesixthirty5801 To me it was funny because he's right in that one-sided beef (having grievances against or fighting with another person) isn't really beef. But as some people might think of chicken as being the opposite to beef (the meat product), to Drake it is therefore chicken. So there's a humorous contrast between his valid or even potentially insightful critique and this absurdist conclusion. Thought it was kind of clever and actually got a laugh out of me too.
