Drake V Kendrick Lamar
The two hip-hop heavyweights have been feuding with each other for a decade now. However, their war of rap reignited earlier this ear, when Lamar appeared on Future and Metro Boomin’s hit Like That.
In the track, Lamar indirectly called out Drake and J Cole's 2023 song ''First Person Shooter'', in which the two artists called themselves, along with Lamar, the “big three” of hip-hop.
“Motherf**k the big three,” Lamar raps on Like That. “It’s just big me.”
Following this, Drake and Lamar continue to release diss tracks with brutal and personal lyrics about each other's past
