Old iLoveMakonnen tweets surface in which he takes shots at Drake.

Were it not for Drake's "Tuesday" remix, the majority of rap listeners still probably wouldn't know who iLoveMakonnen is. There's no doubt that the OVO co-sign has immeasurably aided the singer/rapper's career, but now it seems like Makonnen wasn't always the biggest fan of his current label boss. Someone's just dug up some tweets of his, the oldest of which dates back to 2010, that take some shots at Drizzy. View them in the gallery above.

As the tweets go on, you'll see that by the time 2013 rolled around, Makonnen was warming to Drake, calling him "one of my favorite artist[s] to come out in the pas[t] few years." He was definitely biting the hand that would eventually feed him, but nothing that offensive was said, so let's hope that these don't come back to bite him.
