Drake says "F*ck Hot 97" during his latest stop in NYC.

Whether you’re there for him or Future, Drake is quickly making his “Summer Sixteen” Tour a don’t-miss event. After taking shots at Tory Lanez & Tyga in Austin, clapping back at Joe Budden in Dallas, and bringing out Kanye West in Chicago, the 6 God opened up his first of four night run at Madison Square Garden Thursday night by stirring up some more drama surrounding his name, this time calling out the hometown radio station, Hot 97, in the process.

During a little off course freestyle, Drizzy apparently voiced his frustration with the NYC radio station following this week’s rumorville that Ebro started about Eminem coming after him. “Fuck Hot 97,” Drizzy says before later dissing Funk Flex, “I told Hot 97 fire Funk Flex, then I’ll do your show.”

The latter statement can either be stemming from last Summer’s Meek Mill debacle, where Flex allegedly leaked those Quentin Miller reference tracks or for not being booked at Summer Jam. Either way, Funk Flex didn’t take the choice words lightly and has already responded on twitter, saying “Saturday 7 PM. I got a story to tell, Drake you gon’ learn.”

While we wait for video footage to surface, check out some of the tweets from the Hot 97 crew (below), and definitely be sure to check back Saturday night for this “story” Flex has for us.

Update: Footage surfaces (see below), and Drizzy tells fans he just left the studio with Kanye. Oh man, what a time to be alive.
