Drake VS. Kendrick Lamar- Whats The Beef

Hey everyone, it's Patrick here, and I'm excited to dive into the latest updates on the Drake and Kendrick Lamar feud, which has been heating up significantly.Just recently, Drake released a new track called "Family Matters," which is a three-part piece where he directly addresses Kendrick Lamar. In this song, Drake accuses Lamar of hypocrisy regarding his pro-Black activism, suggesting that Lamar's actions are more about image than genuine commitment.This release is part of an ongoing escalation that began earlier this year. Back in March 2024, Kendrick Lamar dropped a song titled "Like That," where he rejected the idea of a "big three" in modern hip-hop, asserting that he is the sole top figure. This move was seen as a direct challenge to Drake and J. Cole, who had previously been mentioned alongside Lamar as the top artists.The feud took another turn in March 2025 when Universal Music Group (UMG) filed a motion to dismiss Drake's defamation lawsuit. Drake had sued UMG over lyrics from Lamar's song that he claimed were defamatory, specifically the term "certified pedophile." UMG argued that Drake provoked the rap battle and should accept the loss instead of suing.Drake has since doubled down on his lawsuit, filing an amended complaint in April 2025. He pointed out that Kendrick Lamar agreed to censor the word "pedophile" during his Super Bowl performance, which Drake argues proves the term is indeed defamatory. This move highlights the intense legal and public battle between the two artists.On the social media front, the feud has been a hot topic of discussion. Fans and analysts are dissecting every lyric and public statement from both artists, with many focusing on the themes of authenticity, Blackness, and street credibility that both Drake and Lamar have been using to attack each other.Kendrick Lamar has framed Drake as an outsider to hip-hop culture, questioning his Blackness and his roots in Toronto. Meanwhile, Drake has portrayed Lamar as insecure and overly focused on his activist persona, suggesting it's more of an act than a genuine stance.This high-profile feud continues to captivate the music world, with each new development adding more fuel to the fire. It's clear that neither artist is backing down anytime soon.Thanks for listening to the Drake versus Lamar podcast.
