Drake has appeared to respond to Kendrick Lamar‘s recent diss against him with a defiant speech during a performance.
During his second of two shows in Sunrise, Florida on his Big As the What? Tour on Sunday (March 24), Drizzy addressed the crowd and seemed to reference the shots that Kendrick took at him and J. Cole on Future and Metro Boomin‘s “Like That.”
Drizzy delivered a message of defiance to the audience, saying: “A lot of people ask me how I’m feeling… I’ma let you know I’m feeling. Listen, the same way I’m feeling is the same way I want you to walk out this building tonight.”
“I got my fucking head up high, my back straight, I’m 10 fucking toes down in Florida and anywhere else I go,” he added, his voice growing louder and more aggressive. “And I know that no matter what, there’s not a n-gga on this Earth that could ever fuck with me in my life!”
Appearing on Future and Metro’s recently released joint album We Don’t Trust You, Kendrick Lamar launched an attack on his two contemporaries with a scathing guest verse on the Three 6 Mafia-sampling “Like That.”
K. Dot started by referencing Drake and Cole’s number one single “First Person Shooter,” rapping: “Yeah, get up with me/ Fuck sneak dissin’, first person shooter/ I hope they came with three switches.”
He then dismissed the notion that the Toronto and North Carolina natives were his equals, spitting: “Think I won’t drop the location? I still got PTSD/ Muthafuck the big three, n-gga, it’s just big me.”
Kendrick also made reference to Drizzy’s album For All the Dogs: “N-gga, bum, ‘fore all your dogs gettin’ buried/ That’s a K with all these nines, he gon’ see Pet Sematary.”
The Pulitzer Prize-winning rapper also said: “And your best work is a light pack/ N-gga, Prince outlived Mike Jack.”
J. Cole originally namedropped Kendrick on “First Person Shooter” while addressing the long-running “big three” debate: “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.”
Cole has yet to comment on Kendrick’s “Like That” verse but the two have a long history with it being rumored at one point that they were working on a joint album.
Addressing the long-awaited project last year, the Dreamville leader confirmed that they had concrete plans to record together but said their respective careers got in the way.
“At one point, it was a real thing,” he said on Lil Yachty‘s A Safe Place podcast. “But bro, time and life, we ain’t ever got the chance to go in and do it correctly because that would take time.
“For us to do something that’s full of our potential, that meets our real potential, you’re gonna need time. At least a year. When you got two successful artists with lives and families, that’s hard to do.”
He added: “We put it to bed years ago. But at one point in time, it was a real conversation, for sure … It’s not like it’s a ton of songs. It’s not like it’s some album sitting on the shelf somewhere.”
We don’t want no speech in rap beef, go to the booth, are you Joe Biden?
Why do younger people (particularly younger men) see drake as some kinda god ? He fucking sings, he literally got pissed on , and he is a cornball. He is the modern day LL Cool J. I can understand women liking him, but men have no business admiring him or going to his shows.
Yawn. Your delusional. Drake is nothing like LL Cool J. LL NEVER sung on any of his records. # DELUSIONAL
Plus LL would body Drake
No man has any business admiring any man, not even your father. Also, please don’t disrespect LL like that. LL is one of the greatest rappers of all time. Nobody from this era is in that conversation.
Ll got bodied even back then by nwa and biggie.
On top of all of that, he doesn’t even write his own music.
What are you talking about? LL never got bodied by NWA or Biggie. In fact he bodied many rappers including Kool Moe Dee, Ice T, MC Hammer to name a few. He had a back n forth with Canibus, that some people give a W to ‘bus for his 2nd round knockout but other than that LL never been touched on the mic by anyone. Also no is stepping to LL off the mic.
“I got my head held high and my back straight.” Meanwhile he sounds butthurt with awkward and weak posture LMAO
He hurt.
lame af 😂
Lol Future, Metro, and K-Dot got him sounding like Kanye.
All Cole has to say is “I had to fight Diddy for you because you’re a bitch who can’t stand up for yourself.” IDK why people worship Kendrick so much
What does that have to do with being a better artist??
The same white people who have elevated all of these cornballs including the other two the last 20 years.
Nobody can fuck with Drake? Because Pusha T messed fucked with him and Kendrick is even more of a monster on the mic
Drake bodied pusha t in every way. Pusha t sales aren’t even close to drake’s and kendrick fell off ever since he dissed drake
Drake admitted he lost in an interview so that basically ends the argument right there. Sales do not matter anyways. There are plenty of bad rappers who are selling very well. Cardi B is very successful so does that mean you think Cardi B is a good rapper? I didn’t think so. Sales do not equal talent and in many cases, the people who are selling the most are the least talented in the industry.
This nicca talking about sales in a rap beef. Get your goofy ass out of here. Stop pretending like you listen to hip hop to impress your friends. Never met a man who’d defend Drake over kendrick. He must’ve got you through your worse simp days 😂
Competition in rap is a good thing! It is a competitive sport and a core principle of the genre.
Cool, but the sample was Rodney and Joe Cooley’s “Everlasting Bass”
Some Gen Z wrote this article. Probably don’t know who Rodney O and Joe Cooley are.
someone else wrote that for him
Fucking dead LMAO
Great another several months of Drake crying and sneak dissing..
Kendrick wouldn’t have a career at all if drake didn’t give him a cosign. Notice how kendrick fell off in sales and streams ever since he dissed drake?
Drake sucks. Stop posting about him everyday.
Drake is gay.
Let them kill each other.
Why does that nicca have a heart on his hairline? How g@y lmao.
That heart on his hair looks gay af lol. These rap n*ggas are on some gay sh*t.
That heart haircut. Drake definitely likes booty play.
Drake is gonna make a corny song about him and the corny white boys are gonna support it.
