Rapper Pusha T defended his Drake diss track "The Story of Adidon" on the morning show "The Breakfast Club" maintaining that he "didn't go too far with anything" on it.

The song - which claims Drake is the father of pornographic film star Sophie Brussaux's child - takes aim at the rapper's longtime collaborator Noah "40" Shebib and Drake's parents.

Accompanying the track, Pusha released artwork featuring Drake in blackface taken from a photo shoot by photographer David Leyes.

Pusha discussed the song on Power 105.1's "The Breakfast Club" to explain the story behind "The Story of Adidon" and his dispute with Drake.

In his conversation on the morning show, Pusha talked about the controversial blackface photo shoot that Drake did, along with secretly fathering a child.

The rapper further addressed the most controversial line on "The Story of Adidon": "Adonis is your son/ And he deserves more than an Adidas press run, that’s real.”

Pusha also explained the verse saying, "The Adidas situation is this: allegedly his new line on Adidas is called 'Adidon' which is named after Adonis, his son."

He later added: "I definitely didn't go too far with anything."

Pusha said of himself that he didn't have any "skeletons" and that there are "bigger things" Drake needs to answer.

He first restarted his dormant battle with Drake on May 25 taking aim at him on "Infrared," the final song on his new record Daytona.

The song discusses past claims that Quentin Miller ghostwrote for the Canadian rapper.

Later that same day, Drake replied to Pusha's diss track with the single "Duppy Freestyle."
