Rap wars continued last week when Drake traded barbs on Friday with Kendrick Lamar.
Accusing Lamar of infidelity on “Family Matters” and Kendrick claiming Drake has a secret daughter on “Meet the Grahams,” the weekend battle continued into Saturday when Kendrick dropped “Not Like Us.”
Emulating the famous line from The Sixth Sense film, Lamar’s latest diss installment launched in a whisper with “Psst, I see dead people.” “Say Drake, I hear you like ‘em young.” “You better not have to go to Cell Block One/To any bitch that talk to him and they in love/Just make sure you hide your little sister from him.” “Certified Lover Boy/Certified pedophile” and then asks why Drake is “trolling like a bitch/Ain’t you tired?” rapped Kendrick.
Accusing Drake of running to Atlanta for credibility, money, and adding local rappers Future, Lil Baby, and 2 Chainz among the artists Drake was looking to for support, Lamar added “No, you’re not a colleague, you’re a fucking colonizer.”
The ever-increasing feud between Lamar and Drake started weeks ago by Lamar’s Drake and J. Cole-dragging verse in Future and Metro Boomin’s “Like That.” J. Cole initially responded with “7 Minute Drill,” a track he later said he regretted during a speech from the stage at his Dreamville festival. Drake subsequently responded to Kendrick with “Push Ups (Drop and Give Me 50)” and also “Taylor Made Freestyle,” which was ultimately removed from the web following its controversial and potentially litigious-inducing use of AI Tupac Shakur and Snoop Dogg vocals.
