Here are some of the reactions on social media hours after Lamar’s latest dissent to Drake.
“Kendrick ate fr. He had this turn. Drake already lost points using AI, Kendrick also rapped better and called out his ability to raise his child,” one Lamar fan clearly wrote on X calling him the “GOAT”.
“He [Lamar] “I had the best people dissing Drake,” another user added.
Another user remarked, “Kendrick Lamar really trashed baby girl Drake for 6 minutes straight. There’s already so much happening in 2024.”
Many users didn’t like the Euphoria track and chose to side with the Toronto star.
“The same pumps weren’t complete for Kendrick, he called out several people on this, but what Drake did was awesome,” one user said.
“Nicki Minaj denounced Drake in 2018 and boom now everyone is doing this oh Nicki you trendsetter,” said a fan of the Trinidadian rapper.
“Kendrick Lamar, Future, Kanye West, Metro Boomin, Rick Ross, The Weeknd and A$AP Rocky in studio discussing how to ‘take out’ Drake,” one user wrote using a meme image showing the Avengers cast . The message was widely circulated after Ye’s dissent to Drake was dropped two weeks prior.
West claimed he didn’t like the way Drake used AI for his song “Push Up.” Internet users are now impatiently awaiting the latter’s response to the multiple dissensions expressed against him.
