Pusha T didn’t seem to waste one line in his scathing diss song to Drake “The Story of Adidon,” a response to the Canadian rapper’s “Duppy Freestyle.”

So far, some of the most talked about lines on Pusha’s song involve Drake’s parents and a secret love child he allegedly made with a former porn actress.

Pusha also sent a vicious shot to Drake’s producer and longtime friend Noah “40” Shebib health.

“OVO 40 hunches over like he’s 80 / Tick, tick, tick / How much time that man got left? / he’s sick, sick, sick,” he rapped.

On Wednesday (May 30), the National Multiple Sclerosis Society released a statement about Pusha’s line and accused him of making light of a very serious disease.

“It’s troubling to hear that a person’s disability would be made fun of by others,” wrote Eileen Curran, the senior director of National MS Society’s public relations and media. “Multiple Sclerosis, which affects more than 2.3 million people worldwide, is an often misunderstood disease. People living with MS face many challenges every day, which is why it’s so important to continue to raise awareness for MS so others can better understand those challenges.”

Coincidentally, “The Story of Adidon” was released just one day before World MS Day, which Shebib acknowledged after hearing it.

Curran brought up the annual day as well and said at least Pusha is making people think and talk about the disease.

“We at the National MS Society see this as an opportunity to raise awareness of this disease, the people who live with it, and the support that is out there – especially since today is World MS Day,” she wrote.

As for Pusha’s reasoning as to why he didn’t pull any punches on the song, he said it all had to do with Drake mentioning his fiancée Virginia Williams on “Duppy Freestyle.”

“All bets are off because of that,” he told “The Breakfast Club” hosts. “That alone causes all bets to be off.”
