The trash talk between John Wall and Drake started on Instagram and continued on the court in Game 1 and Game 2. The rap superstar started it on social media by commenting "Free Smoke" under John Walls Instagram page. John replied back telling him "We Want All The Smoke", who doesn't want a competitive NBA Playoff Game right?
Game 2 is when Drake recorded and posted a video on his Instagram. In the video he shouts out a Urban Toronto page on Instagram, "6ixbuzz". He also refers NBA Super Star, John Wall as a "Bukthi"(Bucktee) and that "he is getting bodied(Losing) by 20 points. A lot of people were wondering what the word actually means. The word "Bukthi" comes from the Somali language, and is used as a catcall symbolizing that a person has no value. The word comes from the word "Bukthia"(Bucktee-a) which means a person's soul has left his body(i.e death).
The word has became a popular slang used in the streets of Toronto to refer a person as a crack-cocaine user, and some people use it to shame and taunt others. I believe it is disrespectful of Drake to call John Wall by that word. I am happy to see John wall back on the court healthy and playing his best. The Wizards won at home setting the series 2-1 . Wizards played really well, the game got physical at times which led to the refs getting in between. I believe the rivalry between them is only getting more intense due to the fueling from Drake.
Speaking of Drake i don't think he actually knows the root of the word, because he isn't from the Toronto streets and picked it up from the urban Toronto Instagram page that he shouted out(clout chasing, oh Drake called him what?). The Superstar rapper gets a lot of his ideas, lyrics and dance moves from Toronto's urban culture which made him hits, and i think he should appreciate other underground rappers and trend-setters. Gods plan part 2 in Toronto?????!!!!!! cough cough Raptors in 5
