King Kendrick just hit this man with a George Foreman haymaker. He addressed everything and didn’t exaggerate, from Cole, Fatherhood, trying to exploit the culture to be accepted, Gunna, having dirt, trying to be black, sexy Redd, Drake acting tough, Cole’s dissidents, blackmail, Yachty, saying the N-word, man , King Kunta just killed him with straight facts, not imaginary Al verses, just facts🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥”

A quick recap of Drake & Kendrick Lamar’s recent beef
As The Shade Room previously reported, Lamar and Drake had a falling out in March. At the time, Lamar was featured on Future and Metro Boomin’s single “Like That.” He also commented on Drake, comparing the rapper to Michael Jackson and himself to Prince.
In April, audio of an apparent dissident track Drake created for Lamar was released, according to The Shade Room. In the song, Drake called Lamar a trash artist and eventually released the audio on streaming platforms under the title “Push Ups,” according to Billboard.
Then, Drake recently released his latest diss about Lamar, the “Taylor Made Freestyle,” via Instagram. The track featured AI-generated vocals from Snoop Dogg and the late Tupac Shakur.
However, Drake recently removed the track from streaming services.
At this point, Drake has not publicly responded to Lamar’s “Euphoria” release.
