Following this, Drake released two diss songs within a week, "Charged Up" and "Back to Back", both aimed at Meek Mill. The song's title references to the Toronto Blue Jays' back-to-back World Series wins, specifically to the 1993 World Series where the Blue Jays defeated the Philadelphia Phillies; Meek Mill's home town. Meek Mill later responded with another diss song about Drake, titled "Wanna Know". Meek Mill later removed his diss to Drake on SoundCloud.
