Kendrick Lamar has seen accusations that he works with “ghostwriters” resurface online after a reference track by Baby Keem was leaked.
Fans have been pointing out K. Dot’s comments in a 2017 Rolling Stone article, and his opinions on ghostwriting. When asked how he feels about ghostwriters for rappers, the Compton native gave a non-committal answer.
“It depends on what arena you’re putting yourself in. I called myself the best rapper. I cannot call myself the best rapper if I have a ghostwriter,” he said in the cover interview. “If you’re saying you’re a different type of artist and you don’t really care about the art form of being the best rapper, then so be it. Make great music. But the title, it won’t be there.”
But on Sunday (June 2), fans noticed that there was a reference track of Keem’s called “Bullies” that leaked online, which allegedly refuted Drake‘s bar in “Family Matters” about “K Dot shit is only hittin hard when Baby Keem put his pen to it.”

Drake’s insinuation that Baby Keem might be Kendrick’s secret weapon were made on the same song in which the Toronto native claimed to have fed Kendrick fake information.”
“We plotted for a week, and then we fed you the information,” he rapped. “A daughter that’s 11 years old, I bet he takes it/ We thought about givin’ a fake name or a destination/ But you so thirsty, you not concerned with investigation.
“Instead you in that Venice studio, it’s a celebration/ You gotta learn to fact-check things and be less impatient/ Your/ fans are rejoicin’, thinkin’ this is my expiration/ Even the picture you used, the jokes and the medication/ The Maybach glove and the drug he use is for less inflation/ Master manipulator, you bit on the speculation.”
But speaking on his Rumble channel, Akademiks — who has been in regular contact with Drizzy throughout his feud with Kendrick and even premiered numerous diss songs — appeared to turn on the 6 God by sharing some insider information.
The media personality said of the artwork for K. Dot’s “Meet the Grahams,” which featured several items allegedly belonging to Drake including Ozempic pills: “I think Drake knew these things were stolen. It does look like some stolen shit.”
Ak added: “Drake did know that they were stolen so I don’t know if he’s trying to reverse psychology it. When Drake said he set it up, I’m taking that to be the 11-year-old daughter thing,” he continued, referencing Kendrick’s claim that the Toronto native secretly fathered a daughter.
this isn’t new information, its been known kendrick writes for baby Keem. He also wrote one of Keem’s biggest songs (16)

Between the fans from both artists, to the constant fire media is adding to this debacle, I’m turned off from really listening to music from either artist. The industry is exerting the divide between the both of them. Both of them should be getting money. It’s like UMG higher ups are letting it prolong to get more out of both artists. A power play. And all you deranged fans from both camps. Get a life. I’ve never witnessed kids spending their day acting like grade schoolers putting the other artist and fanbase down.

Yep, because both of them had reached the end of life cycle, and they don’t have any new stars coming up. Neither have made a decent album in years.
They were NOT the same song!! Drake made the Baby Keem accusation on Family Matters, he claimed he fed Kendrick information on The Heart Part 6. It’s obvious these people know NOTHING about hip-hop.
this piece of shit has a lot more to worry about than his shitty lyrics and which dude he’s fucking this week. No Bendrick Allowed

I thought it was common knowledge that Kendrick writes for Keem.
Wait a minute…. this doesn’t fit the agenda!
I always thought Kendrick was dissing Drake on King Kunta.
