Elliott Wilson Banned from Drake’s Turf, How a Rap Feud Turned Toronto into No-Fly Zone

Elliott Wilson

Elliott Wilson once enjoyed a strong bond with Drake, interviewing the rap icon for his CRWN series in 2013 and again for Rap Radar in 2019. The latter remains one of Drake’s most comprehensive interviews to date. However, Wilson’s public critiques during Drake’s feud with Kendrick Lamar have caused a major rift, resulting in Drake placing Wilson on his no-fly list for Toronto. Wilson recently discussed this tension during an appearance on BagFuel.

Acknowledging the ban, Wilson expressed understanding, stating, “This is his country. It should be respected, right?” He noted Drake’s dominance in Canadian hip-hop, a reality he witnessed from the first OVO Fest. Recalling the event where Drake brought out JAY-Z and Eminem, Wilson recognized the significant shift in the hip-hop landscape. “This is big,” he admitted, underscoring why he avoids Toronto now.

Despite not fearing for his safety, Wilson emphasized respecting Drake’s territory. He also highlighted the potential dangers posed by obsessive fans, remarking, “They thirsty and crazy. This Trumpian type era of n**gas. I don’t want that cornball sh*t.”

Wilson has previously addressed his fallout with Drake, including an instance where the rapper unfollowed him on social media after a critique of “The Heart Part 6.” During a Bigger Picture podcast appearance, Wilson lamented the deteriorated relationship, saying, “I got my emotions about it. But look it’s hard… That’s my guy, I respect him.”

As the dust settles, fans hope Wilson and Drake can reconcile and mend their fractured friendship.

Lisa Boostani creates a mesmerizing tidal realm in “Ocean”

Lisa Boostani

Lisa Boostani’s “Ocean” takes you deep into a sensory world where body, spirit, and myth come together, beyond the surface of genre. Boostani makes a soundscape that is both ethereal and deeply human by combining the broad essence of psychedelic pop with the strong appeal of alternative rock.

Her voice rises as if it is coming from deep within her, shaped by emotion rather than action. She intentionally channels the intangible, turning weakness into strength rather than a source of pain, and “Ocean” tells people to get involved in this inner world, not just watch it. This release is an integral part of her first EP, “One,” which will come out in March 2026 and is based on love, sensuality, and unity.

If “Ocean” is any indication, the EP will show sensuality not as something pretty, but as a kind of spiritual intelligence, a way to know yourself by connecting with others. The song’s textures and structure have an aquatic quality, moving between clarity and delirium, rhythm and freedom. Its emotional focus is on immersion instead of resolution.

The striking quality of “Ocean” is the blend of the mystical worlds. Boostani understands that strength often shows up as gentleness and that deep feelings are better expressed through frequencies than words. She wants people to see consciousness as immediacy, sensation as truth, and openness as an undeniable strength.

NOAH. captures the unspoken signals in enchanting R&B track “That’s Bless”

NOAH.

“That’s Bless” captures the unspoken late-night message, the smile that was exchanged from afar, and the feeling you sense but are afraid to say. NOAH. offers a song with a smoky R&B feel and lyrics that capture unspoken tension, firmly in the realm of emotional ambiguity, where connection is clear but not defined.

This piece concerns the subtle discomfort of mixed signals and quiet longings, when looks say more than words ever could. NOAH. handles the theme with restraint, letting the chemistry simmer rather than explode. NOAH.’s delivery shows a confident gentleness, recognizing that some feelings don’t need strict definitions to be real.

In “That’s Bless,” he captures the essence of connection and the compelling allure that endures, even when both parties pretend it is not there. The composition is based on real-life events, and it acknowledges that specific attachments endure in the heart long after one has persuaded oneself of having progressed.

“That’s Bless” is at the crossroads of closeness and distance, clarity and confusion. The song doesn’t resolve the tension it talks about, and that’s what makes it so powerful. It sums up the connection we say we don’t want but keep coming back to in memory, rhythm, and pulse.
