Scarface has addressed the hand gesture on the cover of Drake's Iceman album and theorized that the Trump Administration referenced it for nefarious reasons.
The artwork — which sees Drizzy wearing Michael Jackson's famous Swarovski crystal glove — nods to the rapper holding nearly as much number-one songs as the King of Pop, who he's already surpassed in years spent on the Billboard 200.
On Friday (May 15), following the album's release, the White House's accounts posted the Iceman album cover, which was superimposed with a silver chain wearing a "MAGA" pendant.
In a since-deleted Instagram post shared on Friday, Scarface posted an image of the hand gesture and called out white supremacist groups for using it to represent "White Power."
"This means White Power, the word maga was typed at the bottom of that hand gesture on Drake’s album," the southern rap legend captioned the post. "And I know they know what that meant because I know what it means how could they not?"
Face ended his post by writing it was "time to go."
In related news, Drake’s former Young Money Entertainment associate, Nicki Minaj, has made a strong pivot to becoming a conservative voice and recently spoke to TIME about how her political views were realized.
At one point in the article, the rapper blamed Jay-Z for rappers allegedly turning on former U.S. President Barack Obama. "I think Jay-Z ended up costing Obama a lot, whether he knows it or not," she told the publication. "Lots of rappers don’t like Jay-Z and were afraid to say it."
