Hey everyone, it's Patrick here, and I'm diving right into the latest drama between Drake and Kendrick Lamar.
The feud between these two rap giants has been escalating rapidly, and the latest developments are nothing short of explosive. Just recently, Kendrick Lamar used his Super Bowl half-time show performance to take fresh shots at Drake. During the performance, Lamar performed his diss track 'Not Like Us,' where he made some harsh accusations, including branding Drake a "certified paedophile," although he didn't say the word out loud.
This performance came on the heels of Lamar's multiple diss tracks aimed at Drake. In late April, Lamar released several tracks, including 'Euphoria,' '6:16 in LA,' and 'Meet the Grahams,' each targeting Drake with various allegations such as questioning his use of the n-word, accusing him of using an AI version of Tupac Shakur's voice, and even claiming Drake has a secret daughter and is addicted to drugs, sex, and gambling.
Drake didn't stay silent, of course. He responded with his own diss track, 'Family Matters,' where he accused Lamar of calling the Tupac estate to get his track 'Taylor Made Freestyle' taken down and also made allegations of domestic abuse against Lamar. The back-and-forth continued with Drake releasing 'The Heart Part 6,' claiming his team had been fed false information by Lamar.
As of now, Universal Music, which represents both artists, has filed to dismiss Drake's lawsuit against them. However, this doesn't seem to have cooled down the tension between the two rappers. The feud is still very much alive, with both sides trading blows through their music.
It's clear that neither Drake nor Kendrick Lamar is ready to back down, and this ongoing beef continues to captivate the music world. Drake's recent album release has been seen by some as an attempt to move on from the feud, but given the intensity of the recent diss tracks, it's hard to believe this is the end of it.
