The Drake–Kendrick Lamar Feud: A Brief Overview

The tension between Canadian rapper Drake and American rapper Kendrick Lamar has been simmering for quite some time. The feud escalated in March 2024 after the release of a track called “Like That.” Let’s break down the key moments and allegations:

1. The Verse That Ignited the Fire

On March 25, 2024, Kendrick Lamar dropped an uncredited verse on Metro Boomin and Future’s collaborative album “We Don’t Trust You.” In this fiery verse, Lamar took direct shots at both Drake and J. Cole. His words were uncharacteristically blunt, leaving no room for interpretation. Lamar’s verse set the stage for what would become a lyrical battle.

2. The Big Three Controversy

In response to Drake and J. Cole’s song “First Person Shooter,” where they referred to themselves as the “big three,” Lamar fired back. He rejected the label, asserting, “Yeah get up with me, f*** sneak dissing / ‘First Person Shooter,’ I hope they came with three switches. Motherf*** the big three, n***a, it’s just big me.” Lamar even invoked the legacies of Michael Jackson and Prince, claiming that his impact would outlast theirs.

3. Metro Boomin’s Role

Metro Boomin, who had previously collaborated with both Drake and Lamar, found himself caught in the crossfire. Some speculate that the lack of a promised sequel to “What a Time to Be Alive” (Drake and Future’s joint project) led to bad blood. Others point to Metro’s song “Trance,” where he removed Drake’s verse before the album release. The leaked version of the track intensified the feud.

4. Dueling Diss Tracks: “Meet the Grahams” vs. “Family Matters”

Fast forward to May 2024. Drake and Kendrick Lamar escalated their feud with dueling diss tracks. In “Meet the Grahams,” Drake levied serious allegations, including abuse, addiction, and another hidden child. Meanwhile, Kendrick fired back in “Family Matters,” trading barbs about gossip and Ozempic. The feud had officially entered the family arena123.
