Biblical reference?[edit]

Is it possible that 6:16 is a biblical reference? Drake has referred to himself as "6 God." Source 98.123.38.211 (talk) 02:15, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like Luke 6:16 refers to Judas Iscariot, the traitor. Source 98.123.38.211 (talk) 17:04, 4 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

We cannot cite any of these sources because directly citing religious scriptures like the Bible is considered unreliable on Wikipedia. — 🌙Eclipse ^(talk) ^(contribs) 13:29, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like June 16 is also the birthday of Tupac Shakur, and also the day of Father's Day in Canada. 98.123.38.211 (talk) 21:18, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It looks like the TV series Euphoria (which Drake produced) was also released on June 16. 98.123.38.211 (talk) 21:20, 5 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

... that the diss track "6:16 in LA", directed at Drake, samples Al Green's "What a Wonderful Thing Love Is", a song that features Drake's guitarist uncle?

@LunaEclipse: Looks good to me. If I were to make one adjustment, I would clarify that Hodges is a guitarist. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 13:45, 10 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
