However some fans were quick to point out that another artist called Pardison Fontaine, real name Jordan Thorpe, had rapped the lyrics to the song on Snapchat in 2014.
"Man, I thought you would've learned your lesson/ 'Bout liking pictures, not returnin' texts," he raps over the same instrumental. "I guess it's fine, man, I get the message/ You still stutter after certain questions/ You keep in contact with certain exes."
