Latest on Drake vs Kendrick Lamar beef
In the last 36 hours, Lamar has released two diss tracks targeting Drake. And it seems that the beef is not going to end anytime soon between the two rappers. Drake released “Family Matters” on Friday, which was quickly followed by Lamar putting out “Meet the Grahams” at midnight. Since Lamar was in no mood to wait for a rebuttal, he doubled down with “Not Like Us” on Saturday night.
Both Drake and Lamar have gotten really personal and brutal in the new diss tracks. While Drake suggested that Kendrick’s son was actually fathered by Kendrick’s general manager, Dave Free, in "Family Matters", Lamar opened "Meet the Grahams" by telling Adonis he’s sorry Drake is his father. Lamar also mentioned Drake's alleged secret daughter and accused him of employing sex offenders at OVO.
