In a string of Twitter posts, Cannon denied claims that the song is a diss directed at the 45-year-old singer, whom he split from in 2014 after six years of marriage.
"Sorry to disappoint the bottom feeders but you won't be hearing any diss records from me unless it's about the GOVERNMENT! LOL," he said.
