Über diesen Titel

 Listeners, the buzz around the Drake and Kendrick Lamar feud has absolutely dominated hip-hop and social media the past few days, and let me tell you, nothing is hotter right now than the back-and-forth energy between these two icons. Things reached an entirely new level as Kendrick Lamar, in his track "Not Like Us," pulled no punches—he labeled Drake a "pedophile" and doubled down on the accusations by referencing him as "Certified Lover Boy? Certified pedophiles," even warning NBA legends like LeBron James and Steph Curry to keep their families away from Drake, who Kendrick called a "pervert." The cover art for "Not Like Us" took it to another level by using imagery of Drake’s home marked with sex offender beacons. All this, just hours after Kendrick unloaded another diss with "Meet The Grahams," where he accused Drake of hiding a secret daughter—claims which, according to TMZ, Drake’s camp calls a complete fabrication.

Drake isn’t just standing still. He’s gone on the legal offensive, filing a defamation suit against Universal Music Group for their part in distributing Kendrick’s diss track and he’s specifically pushing the idea that UMG used bots and pay-to-play tricks to artificially boost “Not Like Us.” The witness list filed by Drake’s team reads like an industry who’s-who, including everyone from UMG’s CEO to major execs from Spotify and even the NFL. Kendrick, though not a defendant, is listed by UMG as a pivotal witness, expected to be grilled over how the track, the artwork, and its video came together and went viral. Social media, predictably, is on fire, splitting into Drake and Kendrick camps, each dissecting every lyric and subliminal.

Speaking of viral, even big celebrities are getting low-key involved. Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was seen blasting Drake’s new diss "What Did I Miss?" during his workout video, and now fans are speculating if he’s trying to signal his support for Drake, especially after Kendrick's show-stopping, Drake-dissing Super Bowl halftime set earlier this year. Meanwhile, Kendrick performed his notorious diss live in Toronto, Drake’s own home turf, and the crowd there sang along relentlessly, showing just how mainstream and universal "Not Like Us" has become—even among fans in the 6.

Drake, away from all this chaos, is making massive career moves. He’ll be headlining Wireless Festival’s 20th anniversary in London for not one, not two, but three nights, each with unique setlists—a world-first. That’s another historic milestone amid all the drama. And while Kendrick rides his “Not Like Us” triumph, both artists are racking up millions of streams and their online feud is inspiring infinite memes and breakdowns. YouTubers and content creators who reacted to the diss tracks are now being pulled into the legal crossfire, with some, like Zias, hinting at countersuing Drake, frustrated about being included in his lawsuits.

Listeners, this feud has spilled so far beyond tracks: it’s a Super Bowl talking point, a courtroom battle, a meme factory, and honestly, a pop culture event for the ages. It’s messy and explosive, and if you’re obsessed like me, you know every day brings a new twist.
