The time has arrive for Drake to enter himself into witness safety. It could possibly be the only matter effective more than enough to shield him from Kendrick Lamar’s lethal wrath. “Euphoria,” Lamar’s 2nd Drake diss, dropped on April 30, a month immediately after his preliminary Drizzy-aimed warning shot went off in Long term and Metro Boomin’s “Like That,” the most recent in the Terrific Rap Beef Off of 2024. KDot’s 6-moment opus eviscerates every little thing about Drake with humorous simplicity, coming for his parenting, his rap techniques, his Toronto background, his rumored BBL, his faux accents, and much more. What tends to make this music unique from “Like That,” having said that, is its blatant honesty. When the Compton rapper appeared aggrieved about the strategy that there’s a rap massive three in last month’s blockbuster verse, this time he’s vulnerable about the authentic reason Drake pisses him off. “This ain’t been ’bout critics, not about gimmicks, not about who the best,” he raps. “It’s often been about love and hate, now enable me say I’m the greatest hater / I dislike the way that you stroll, the way that you converse / I detest the way that you dress.” He absolutely cleared, your honor.
We can only hope Lamar never ever relinquishes the detest in his coronary heart, because we could go for yet another fiery verse or two. (We know Drake’s AI-generated response tracks unquestionably aren’t providing this stage of unadulterated rancor, nor did the apologetic J. Cole’s half-hearted diss, considering that taken off from streaming.) Even though we wait to see Lamar’s up coming concentrate on, below are all the “Euphoria” lyrics that in all probability made Drake duck and address.
When he phone calls Drake a grifter:
You not a rap artist, you a scam artist with the hopes of bеing accepted
When he references Drake settling a sexual-assault lawsuit:
Have you ever viewed your enemy down like with a poker face?
/ Have you at any time compensated 5-hundred thousand to like an open circumstance?
When he will come for Drake’s protective style:
Cutthroat business, you acquired shit twisted / What is it? The braids?
When he tends to make everyone’s jaw hit the flooring:
How lots of a lot more Black capabilities till you finally come to feel that you Black adequate?
When he brings up the BBL allegations:
Yeah, my initial one particular like my very last 1 / It’s a typical, you never have one
/ Let your core audience tummy that / Did not explain to ’em wherever you get your stomach muscles from
When he miracles if he was tusslin’ with Drake or AI-generated 2Pac just after the former launched his legally challenged “Taylor Built Freestyle”:
Am I battlin’ ghost or AI? Nigga feelin’ like Joel Austeen / Funny, he was in a movie known as AI
When he phone calls Drake a baddie:
When I see you stand by Sexyy Pink, I imagine you see two poor bitches /
I feel you really do not like females, that is genuine level of competition, you could pop ass with ’em
When he tells Drake to get a life and see his kid:
Why would I get in touch with close to tryna get dust on niggas? / Y’all assume all of my daily life is rap? / Which is hoe shit, I acquired a son to increase, but I can see you know nothin’ ’bout that
