Kendrick Lamar and Drake‘s feud has already produced a number of scathing diss tracks from each side, and Akademiks has now taken a closer look at some of the imagery surrounding the music.
On Friday (May 3), soon after K.Dot responded to Drizzy’s “Family Matters” diss track within an hour by unleashing “meet the grahams,” the internet personality went live on Rumble to share his reaction to the back-and-forth. During the stream, he even claimed to receive information from the Compton MC’s team about the meaning behind his latest offering’s cover art (which features, among other things, what appears to be a prescription for Ozempic, a drug frequently used for weight loss in Drake’s name), though this has yet to be verified.
“Akademiks got intel from Kendrick’s camp that the details of the cover of ‘Meet the Grahams’ containing a glove, ozempic, receipts etc was stolen from a suitcase that belonged to Dennis Graham, Drake’s father,” the 32-year-old wrote in a TikTok post.
“This cover art contains things that is from Drake’s pops’ suitcase, so Drake’s pops’ suitcase had these things in it,” he said. “Don’t know how he got a hold of it, don’t know how this happened to get in Kendrick’s hand. But apparently Kendrick Lamar must’ve got a hold of Drake’s dad’s suitcase. So we’re talking about Dennis Graham, which is Drake’s pops […] remember all that talk about leaks in the camp?”

The Los Angeles MC amped up the rivalry earlier this week by dropping “6:16 in LA,” on which he questions Ak’s objectivity in the matter with the bar: “Yeah, somebody’s lyin’, I can see the vibes on Ak/ Even he lookin’ compromised.”
A follow up to “euphoria” from earlier in the week, the cut alleges that people in the 6 God’s own team are praying on his downfall and even leaking information to his adversaries.
Later that same day, the Canadian superstar responded with a seven-plus minute joint and accused his rival of domestic violence, insincere racial activism, distancing himself from his native state of California and nudging 2Pac‘s estate to have his “Taylor Made Freestyle” removed from social-media platforms, among countless other jabs.
Less than an hour later, the good kid, m.A.A.d city rapper posted his rebuttal. “meet the grahams” clocks in at roughly six-and-a-half minutes and addresses each member of Drake’s immediate family — Adonis (son), Sandy (mother) and Dennis (father) — in addition to the Toronto MC himself, who is referred to by his real name, Aubrey Graham.
Over the deeply personal attack, he implies that Drizzy uses Ozempic, is hiding a daughter and hires sex offenders, in addition to a number of other shots.
Drake got cooked
King Kendrick baby. Gogogogogogogogo
The pedo allegations pertain to Drakes ex bodyguard turned signee, Baca Not Nice. Wiki him and you’ll see.
People actually taking Ak’s fat ass word for it. I thought maybe the bar about Dennis needing more money and saying Drake has used him in the past for credibility, which is true, means that they got the information from him, but it just seems like Kendrick ended up getting bad information on this one from all accounts, which fucked up his diss that was framed from a serious angle. Now, the last verse just looks stupid like he’s criticizing him for an imaginary child and living a lifestyle that 99.9% of rappers have but Drake is the only one he has a problem with. Rick Ross baby mother says he has eight or nine kids, half of which he doesn’t claim for instance. Let’s not talk about Dre again, the person who put him on. He has kids from his first dark skinned wife that he flat out abandoned. X, who Kendrick used for half of Euphoria’s concept, was on camera shitting on one of his 17 kids, etc. etc.
If drake has a kid, why would he ever admit now? So he can have pusha T bagging the fuck up. Nah, he’ll just deny it. Kendrick said this man will lie and manipulate you and look at exactly what you’re doing. You don’t even know drake but he’s got you doing work for him. Think for yourself and stop being some popstars bitch
@You stupid fuck,
I’m stupid, but you’re the dumb fuck acting like Drake would even be looked at differently if he did have another child when I laid out what all of these entertainers have going on. Sounds like you’re too invested in this shit like these white executives wanted you to be. Shit didn’t land little buddy.
You have been arguing with everyone since Like That dropped bro. You’re clearly a big Drake fan cause you keep trying to discredit the entire industry so you can normalize the BS he’s accused of. It’s not that deep bro you don’t even know that man.
I know it’s not that deep to you white people who don’t actually like hip hop. It’s just like going to the zoo watching the animals. Read that stupid shit you wrote. I’ve been defending Drake. Where dumbass? I criticized the industry and said it was some fuck shit from the people who took over with this art form I used to love. All these people are on Universal and work for the same people. You don’t see something wrong with that shit? You don’t see something wrong with three artists making 70% of the revenue last year, hip hop being in the shitter sales wise and creatively, and then this nonsense coming out conveniently to produce engagement instead of actually getting this genre back to making good music? Think dummy.
The other child would look bad if it was conceived with A Minorrrrrrrrrrr
Kendrick’s a woman beater raising someone else’s kid lmao
Probably better to be a wife beater than a pedophile sex trafficker but what do clowns like you know.
Bruh, We all are raising someone else’s kids, unless the girl you date dint have any… she came into the relationship with 2 lol
I used to be against it, until I realized the pool of women without one after age 23 is nonexistent.
Look at any of the zoom in photos. They clearly say Aubrey on the prescription. They belong to drake. Stop dick riding and just admit he’s a hypocrite dork pretending to be a gangster.
