The rapper's latest verse has got people talking.

Following a lengthy hiatus, OVO Sound Radio returned on Saturday night and Drake ensured that he kicked off the new season with a bang.

The Canadian rapper dropped his own verse on N.E.R.D's Rihanna-assisted song 'Lemon', which premiered during the show.

Who Is The Dancer In N.E.R.D And Rihanna’s New ‘Lemon’ Music Video?

"Got the nerve to want a Bentley for her birthday / I said, "Maybe I could rent it for your birthday" spits Drizzy over the bouncy beat.

Listen to the remix below:

As expected, fans immediately took to social media to share their live reactions to the surprise rework of the Pharrell-produced banger, which was released in November last year.

And while some were feeling Drizzy's contribution, others couldn't help but compare it to Rihanna's original powerhouse bars that follow.

"Joking aside, Rihanna still outrapped Drake on the Lemon remix," wrote one Twitter user.

I loved this new lemon remix, i've been waiting for riri & drake to be in a song together but tbh rihanna snapped more & went harder.

why’d Drake put himself on a song, and still had Rihanna outrap him?

People went as far as labelling Drizzy's verse as 'horrible', 'hot trash' and 'atrocious'.

Meanwhile, the OVO hitmaker recently starred in the 70's inspired music video for his Migos collaboration 'Walk It Talk It'.
