What Drake song says “you getting bodied by a singing”?

If you heard it recently, it was almost certainly “Burning Bridges”, track 8 on Drake’s 2026 album Iceman. But the line is older than that. It first appeared on “Back To Back” in 2015, and “Burning Bridges” brings it back on purpose. That is why searches like “what song does drake say you getting bodied by a singing” turn up both songs.

The original: “Back To Back” (2015)

In July 2015 Meek Mill accused Drake on Twitter of not writing his own raps. Drake answered with “Charged Up” and, days later, “Back To Back”, a short, mocking diss that most fans think ended the beef. The “bodied by a singing …” line is one of its best-known bars: Drake leans into the fact that he is known for singing as much as rapping, and says that a singer is beating Meek at his own game. “Back To Back” went on to a Grammy nomination for Best Rap Performance.

The callback: “Burning Bridges” (2026)

Eleven years later, on “Burning Bridges”, Drake sets the line up with “I put you through the wringer” and then re-sings “you gettin’ bodied by a singin’ …”. The target this time is A$AP Rocky, the song is the answer to Rocky’s album Don’t Be Dumb, and the callback tells him he is getting the same treatment Meek got. WhoSampled counts it as an interpolation of “Back To Back”, the only sample credited on the song.

“Burning Bridges” is also the song behind the “where she at?” chorus and the viral party clip. For what the rest of it means, see “Burning Bridges” lyrics meaning, or, if it was the hook that stuck, the Drake “where she at” song.

What “you getting bodied by a singing” means

  • “Bodied”: beaten badly, especially in a rap battle. If you got bodied, you lost and everyone saw it.
  • “By a singing …”: Drake is famous for singing hooks and R&B songs, something battle rap often treats as soft. The line turns that into the insult: you are losing to the guy who sings.
  • “I put you through the wringer”: a wringer is the pair of rollers on old washing machines that squeezed clothes dry. Putting someone through it means grinding them down. It is the setup for the bodied line on “Burning Bridges”.

How people search it

Lyrics heard on TikTok get typed out by ear, so the same lines show up as “you getting bodied by a singing”, “your getting bodied by a singing”, “bodied by a singer”, “through the ringer” and “drake you getting bodied”. They all point to the two songs above. We quote only short lines to explain them; the full lyrics are on licensed sites such as Genius, linked below.
