Taylor Rooks has something to say about Drake's bars, mentioning her on the unreleased track 'Supermax.'
On Friday, Drake had the internet talking when he dropped several unreleased tracks during a live stream as part of the unusual rollout for his forthcoming album Iceman .
In one of the tracks, 'Supermax,' Drake mentioned a woman named Taylor who blessed him with some good advice during a night out.
'I was talking to Taylor over drinks, and it was getting deep / 'Not everyone can handle this pressure and, in the city, you're the national treasure,' that's what she said to me,' Drizzy raps.
Rooks seemingly confirmed that she was the Taylor that the 6 God was referencing in the song when she shared an Instagram Story post featuring a screenshot of the Iceman Episode 1 stream with the caption, 'That's what she said to me,' directly quoting the song.
Immediately, fans began speculating about the sports reporter and the Hip-Hop star's 'friendship' and even started bringing up former Twitter owner Jack Dorsey's old tweets in support of Kendrick Lamar during his feud with Drake.
It has long been rumored that Dorsey and Rooks dated each other, but neither has confirmed that to be the case.
'Supermax' wasn't the only song that had fans' ears perked up. His 'Iceman' lead single, 'What Did I Miss?' also had the streets talking, with many believing Drake took shots at his former friends, speculating he either had bars for LeBron James or DeMar DeRozan.
We only expect more subliminal disses to be a part of this album rollout as this Iceman project is seemingly shaping up to be Drake's way of getting back at those he feels betrayed him.
You can see more reactions to 'Supermax' lyrics below.

Christie Brinkley Says This 1 Factor Doomed Her Relationship With Billy Joel

Christie Brinkley opened up about her rocky marriage to Billy Joel in a new documentary about the iconic musician's life. The model married Joel in 1985, and the two welcomed their only child, Alexa, later that year. Brinkley said that she tried to make her relationship with Joel work, but there was one thing that got in the way. 'I don't think it's a secret that his drinking got pretty bad,' Brinkley said in Part 2 of the musician's new HBO documentary, Billy Joel: And So It Goes. She said that the singer 'couldn't really remember what he did when he was drinking, and so he didn't really know how he could hurt people.' During a particularly stressful period of financial turmoil and touring for Joel, Brinkley said that 'there was too much unraveling in his life.' She would call bars to find out where Joel was, and would pretend to be sleeping when he would come in some nights, so she could avoid seeing him 'in that condition.' 'Our relationship went from lots of fun and really, totally enjoying each other and everything, to his work consuming him,' the model shared. Brinkley said she didn't know what to do, but she decided she couldn't 'be lonely.' It was just her 'and Alexa in this big old house that was supposed to be so full of life and love and music and laughter and all of that,' Brinkley said as she started to tear up. The model said that 'things were starting to deteriorate' and then one fight sealed the deal. 'One night, we had an argument and I said, 'I really can't take this anymore, and I'm just gonna take Alexa back up to New York and leave,'' she recalled. 'And he said, 'Yeah, fine ― go.'' The two divorced in 1994, and Joel revealed what he took away from the end of their marriage. 'I realized love is not concrete,' the musician said. 'You know, you feel like it is, but there are things eating away at it. And, in the end, it all catches up. And it's hard. And I was so devastated.' Brinkley has spoken about Joel's drinking before in her recently published memoir, Uptown Girl. 'The drinking was bigger than the both of us. Booze was the other woman and it was beginning to seem that he preferred to be with her rather than me,' she said. The 71-year-old told Page Six in April that 'leaving Billy wasn't easy for me to do.' 'He's the father of my firstborn and we spent such great formative years together. And I'll love him forever,' Brinkley shared. 'Things just reached a point where I knew I couldn't live with him.' Ron Galella, Ltd. / Getty Images

Joe Exotic says he will die in prison unless Trump pardons him

Would-be killer and ex-'Tiger King' star Joe Exotic claims he is now riddled with cancer and will die in prison unless President Trump pardons him — insisting to The Post, 'I will not make it another five years.' The 62-year-old felon — who is in federal lockup in Fort Worth, Texas, for a murder-for-hire plot against his rival — said he fears he won't even make it to his parole eligibility in 2030 because his cancer tumors just keep growing. 'I'm not gonna make it. I'm gonna die,' the ex-Netflix star said in an exclusive phone interview Monday while serving a 21-year sentence for plotting to kill big-cat arch-rival Carole Baskin and for violating federal wildlife laws.

Exotic, whose real name is Joseph Allen Maldonado-Passage, announced he'd been diagnosed with prostate cancer in 2021.

Getty Images Exotic — who starred in Netflix's 2020 'Tiger King' true-crime series about his life and dark slide while caring for exotic big cats at his zoo in Oklahoma — insisted his health woes have only worsened due partly to the stress of his husband, Jorge Flores Maldonado, being deported to Mexico from the US earlier this year. 'I'm dealing with prostate cancer, lung cancer. I'm waiting for a [positron emission tomography] scan because I think the prostate cancer is in my ribs now,' Exotic said. 'And the stress of [Jorge] being in Mexico with nothing. He's living like a homeless person right now, and there's nothing I can do to help because I'm stuck in here.'

The pair met and fell in love while in prison when Maldonado was there on immigration raps. Exotic, betting Trump to step in and spring him early from the pokey, told The Post: 'Let me get up and pay my own bills and work and try and make it the next five years so I can bring Jorge back to America.' But he also suggested he has come to terms with the fact he'll likely die behind bars. 'I've already got my will done. So everything goes to Jorge so he can at least move on,' he said. 'I have nothing, absolutely nothing. So, you know at this point right now, I wish cancer would hurry up and take me before I have to endure five more years of hell in America.'

Brad Pitt, Nicole Kidman and Hollywood elites are sitting ducks for new breed of burglars: security expert

Vicious burglars and break-in gangs are using cutting-edge technology to pull off nefarious heists — and even celebs like Brad Pitt, Nicole Kidman and Keanu Reeves aren't safe. A spate of home invasions, crafty break-ins and the recent tragic double-murder of 'American Idol' music supervisor Robin Kaye and her husband Thomas Deluca inside their Encino home, at the hands of an apparent robber, have Hollywood on high alert. No number of cameras and alarm systems are enough to outwit the gangs, according to one pro. Advertisement 'They use signal jammers, which you can buy for a few thousand dollars' security ace to the stars, Kris Herzog, told The Post. 'It jams the signal to your cameras, your alarm, your mobile phone. 13 Brad Pitt's home was broken into after intruders climbed a fence to get on property. Anadolu via Getty Images 'It all turns off, as if you were home and simply deactivated your alarm. Then [the thieves] dress as gardeners and show up a few hours before or after the real gardeners. Advertisement 13 Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban are among the stars who have had homes broken into. AFP via Getty Images 'They enter through the same gate [as the legit gardeners] and load leaf-blower bags with your valuables. I've been told 50 or 60 of these signal-jammer gangs are active in LA and none of them have ever been caught.' Celebrities and athletes are frequent targets, as the public nature of their lives means media-savvy thieves know when they're playing games out-of-town or promoting a movie abroad. They also use drones to surveil targets, according to sources. For example, unlucky Los Angeles Dodger Yasiel Puig reportedly had his house robbed four times over a 10-month period — with two incidents even going down while he was playing at Dodger Stadium. Advertisement 13 'American Idol' music supervisor Robin Kaye and her husband, Thomas Deluca, were both killed by an intruder. Robin Kaye/Facebook 13 This is the Encino house where Kay and Deluca lived and were killed. Los Angeles Times via Getty Images Herzog, owner of the Bodyguard Group of Beverly Hills, went on to boast, 'Right now I could go to the homes of multiple celebrities and show you in less than 10 minutes how to get onto their properties and inside their houses without anybody calling the police.' This past Valentine's Day, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's Los Angeles area home was broken into by an intruder who smashed a glass window to gain entry. It is unclear what was taken from the house. Advertisement In December 2023, Keanu Reeves was robbed by burglars wearing ski masks. They too used the broken-window gambit to enter his Hollywood Hills property. The following year, three of his watches, including a $9,000 Rolex, were recovered – all the way from Chile. 13 Jennifer Aniston's home was targeted by an intruder in his 70s. The man rammed into the gate. Getty Images for FIJI Water 13 This is the home where an intruder was caught by a guard and held at gunpoint until the police arrived. ABC7 Los Angeles police have previously warned about the proliferation of South American gangs who operate in the city. Such gangs often arrive in the country as tourists, carry out pre- organized burglary sprees, some even stealing to order, and then leave again, with fences moving the stolen goods separately. Police are often left clueless when it comes to IDing, matching fingerprints or DNA to the foreign intruders. 13 Kris Herzog believes that celebrities need to get smart about security. Courtesy of Kris Herzog 13 One of Herzog's police cars and a sign designed to ward off intruders. Courtesy of Kris Herzog This past June, Brad Pitt's home in a gated community was broken into; thieves climbed a fence to get on property and ransacked. In 2017, Kendall Jenner had hundreds of thousands of dollars of jewelry stolen from her, in what was reported to be an inside job. Advertisement 'The unfortunate reality is that the more you have in terms of wealth and notoriety, the more you become a target,' Jeff Zisner, president and CEO of Aegis Security and Investigations, told Fox News. As Max Lea, President of Safehouse Security Solutions, told Architectural Digest, 'These crimes are becoming the new normal. People have to change their response.' According to Hollywood Reporter, elaborate security details for celebrities can run six- to seven-figures. But, judging by the rash of criminal events over several years, it is money well spent. 13 Over the years, Drake has had the misfortune of dealing with bad guys on multiple occasions. WireImage Advertisement Tina Knowles, mother of Beyonce, had her Hollywood Hills home broken into and thieves managed to steal an entire safe, loaded with $1 million in cash and jewelry, in 2023. Marlon Wayans got robbed in July last year. The thieves were so stealth that brother Keenen Ivory Wayans, who was in the house at the time, slept through the break in. He later posted to Instagram, 'They didn't get much because I don't own s–t.' Drake has particularly bad luck with thieves. Over the years, he's been held up at gunpoint, endured his Toronto home being broken into (where a security guard was shot) and also had his Benedict Canyon mansion burglarized in 2023. On that occasion, officers nabbed a suspect within hours. Those who tip off criminals about whose home is ripe for burglary can be surprisingly close, according to Herzog. Advertisement 13 Break-in artists took a safe out of Tina Knowles' home. Paras Griffin 'Every day in LA, a valet, a landscaper, a pool cleaner, a maid will sell someone out to armed criminal gangs,' he said. 'They know the layout of the house, the home security system, which dogs are aggressive. Because these people have been in the houses for their jobs, they know where all the valuables are hidden and when the homeowners will be away — and they don't like their employers. 'That's how, 90 percent of the time, [burglars and home invaders] get away with it.' Advertisement Some celebrity helpers cut right to the chase and do it themselves: In 2000, comedian David Spade withstood a stun gun attack from his own assistant, who allegedly tried robbing his home. Spade later brushed off the incident saying the assistant was suffering a mental episode. 13 Marlon Wayons was robbed as his brother Keenan Ivory Wayans slept. EPA In 2017 he wasn't so lucky as Spade had his safe stolen, resulting in the funnyman losing some $80,000 in cash and jewelry. Herzog claims getting into massive properties is easier than an Oscar winner passing an audition for a Japanese cola commercial: 'When you have a home so large that there are 50 or 60 points of entry – windows that open and close, doors that open and close. Are you really telling me that [the star] is walking around the house [to check the doors and windows]?' The importance of celebrities having physical security guards – rather than relying exclusively on alarm systems – was recently underscored by an incident that took place at the $21m Bel Air home of Jennifer Aniston. 13 On two occasions, Yasiel Puig was playing baseball for the Dodgers when thieves hit his home. Getty Images This past May, a man in his 70s is alleged to have rammed his car through the gate of the star's house, while she was there. A security guard on duty held the intruder at gunpoint until the police arrived to apprehend him. In the case of Tyler Perry, a thermal imaging camera system plus 24/7 security guards managed to chase off intruders from the grounds before they used their bust-in equipment – which included bolt-cutters, a saw and crowbars – to steal the valuables. Herzog insists his clients take things further than merely having a human guard on the property. 13 Keanu Reeves is said to have had his home broken into. Luckily, three of his wrist watches were recovered in far-away Chile. Getty Images He capitalizes on an LA law that allows police officers to do private security work, while in uniform, when they are off the clock. He also cooks up a serious deterrent for clients. 'I have retired police cars,' said Herzog, maintaining his cars are near identical to the real thing. 'Nobody is afraid of a security guard. But if there's a police car sitting there? The bad guys say that they don't want to get shot. And if the cop presses one button, there's going to be 100 other cops from all different directions. Criminals don't want to trade freedom or their lives for getting money out of a house.' In 2025, Herzog maintained, anything less than a uniformed cop in the driveway and 'celebrities are easy targets because the word is out, they make [bad] security decisions.'
