Drake and Kendrick Lamar have fired brand new diss tracks in the latest series of developments in their feud.Yesterday (May 3), Kendrick dropped his latest diss track against Drake ‘6:16 in LA‘, but now, the pair have traded blows with new diss tracks within an hour of each other, beginning with Drake’s ‘Family Matters’.On the track, Drake sent more shots towards Lamar and his wife Whitney Alford, rapping: “You the black messiah wifing up a mixed queen / And hit vanilla cream to help out with your self-esteem / On some Bobby shit I wanna know what Whitney need / All that puppy love was over in your late teens”.Along with dissing Lamar, Drake took aim at The Weeknd (“a drugged out little punk sissy from the northside“), A$AP Rocky (“Gassed cause you hit my BM first n***a do the math who I was hitting then“) and Rick Ross (“What the fuck I heard Rick drop n***a / Talking something ’bout a nose job n***a“).Drake finally ended his track with a bombshell accusation against Lamar: “They hired a crisis management team to clean up the fact that you beat up your queen/The picture you painted ain’t what it seems”An hour later, Lamar quickly fired back with his own track ‘Meet The Grahams’, which saw the Compton musician address every family member of Drake (real name Aubrey Graham).He began his track by speaking to Drake’s son Adonis: “Dear Adonis, I’m sorry that that man is your father, let me be honest / It takes a man to be a man, your dad is not responsive / I look at him and wish your grandpa woulda wore a condom / I’m sorry that you gotta grow up and then stand behind him”.To Drake’s father Dennis, Lamar said: “You raised a horrible fuckin’ person/The nerve of you, Dennis,” in which he then spoke to Drake’s mother Sandra,

Drake seems to hit back at diss from Kendrick Lamar
Drake has appeared to hit back at Kendrick Lamar, following the latter dissing him on a recent track.The tension between the two arose when Kendrick Lamar took aim at Drake and J Cole on a new track, ‘Like That’, which was shared as part of Future and Metro Boomin’s new collaborative album ‘We Don’t Trust You’.Others to star on the album include The Weeknd, Travis Scott, Playboi Carti and Rick Ross, however, it was Lamar’s appearance that turned heads, seemingly responding to J Cole’s verse on ‘First Person Shooter’ from Drake’s 2023 album ‘For All The Dogs’.“Love when they argue the hardest MC / Is it K-Dot? Is it Aubrey? Or me? / We the big three like we started a league, but right now, I feel like Muhammad Ali,” J Cole rapped on the track, with “K-Dot” referring to Kendrick Lamar (via Independent).However, on ‘Like That’, Lamar seems to dismiss the idea that they’re in the same league, saying: “Motherfuck the big three, n****, it’s just big me/ N****, bum, What? I’m really like that/And your best work is a light pack.”He also went on to liken their rivalry to the ‘80s conflict between Prince and Michael Jackson.This comes as in ‘First Person Shooter’, Drake compared his chart success to that of Michael Jackson, but On ‘Like That’, Lamar points out: “N****, Prince outlived Mike Jack.”Now, while both Drake and J Cole are out co-headlining their ‘It’s All A Blur’ tour, the former seems to have weighed in his opinion on Lamar’s comments.“A lot of people asking me how I’m feeling… the way I’m feeling is the same way I want you to walk out of here feeling tonight about your fucking selves.
