Drake vs. Lamar Feud Heats Up: Lawsuit Dismissed, Fans Divided

Hello everyone, I'm Patrick, and welcome back to the Drake versus Lamar podcast It's been quite a few days for both of these hip-hop giants. Let's dive right into it.First off, the major news is that a federal judge has dismissed Drake's defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group over Kendrick Lamar's scathing diss track "Not Like Us." The judge ruled that the lyrics in "Not Like Us," which included serious accusations against Drake, were protected as opinion and not considered factual. This decision is a significant blow to Drake's legal efforts, and it seems like the feud between these two rappers is going to stay in the music realm rather than the courtroom.On a lighter note, Drake has been focusing on his personal life. He recently celebrated his son Adonis' 8th birthday with a grand western-themed party alongside Adonis' mother, Sophie Brussaux. The event showed a clear display of co-parenting harmony between the two, and social media has been buzzing with photos and videos from the celebration.Kendrick Lamar's "Not Like Us" has seen a spike in streaming following the dismissal of Drake's lawsuit. The track, which was already a hit, re-entered the top charts on platforms like iTunes and Apple Music. It's clear that the legal battle has fueled even more interest in the song.In terms of fan reactions, listeners are weighing in heavily on social media about the ongoing feud, with some expressing dislike for how Drake is being treated. However, the feud continues to captivate fans worldwide, making it one of the most discussed topics in hip-hop.Thanks for tuning in, folks If you enjoyed this episode of the Drake versus Lamar podcast, don't forget to subscribe and come back next week for more updates on these two hip-hop legends.

Listeners, if you’ve been scrolling through social media or following hip-hop headlines over the last few days, then you already know the Drake and Kendrick Lamar feud is showing zero signs of cooling off. The buzz has only intensified as legal drama, festival moments, cryptic social media posts, and Super Bowl halftime rumors swirl around both superstars, and honestly, I can’t get enough.So let’s dive right in. First, the latest shots fired in the feud haven’t even been musical—they’re legal. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Drake is doubling down on his defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group, who represent Kendrick through Interscope. Drake’s demanding UMG cough up Kendrick’s contract and, in an even sharper escalation, any info relating to alleged crimes and accusations of domestic violence. The legal team is literally digging as deep as they can to get leverage, as Drake claims UMG secretly boosted “Not Like Us,” Lamar’s infamous diss track, to trash his name right in the middle of Drake’s own contract negotiations. If you think the lyrical back-and-forth this year was spicy, the legal angle is giving it a whole new dimension.Now, speaking of “Not Like Us,” that song is still everywhere—all over TikTok, Instagram, Twitter—especially since Drake’s suit has made it relevant again. Socials are split: Kendrick supporters are memeing the lawsuit as proof Drake felt “cooked” by “Not Like Us,” while Drake’s legion is pushing the narrative that K. Dot “crossed the line” with his predator allegations in recent diss tracks. This isn’t just fan banter either. Media outlets like TMZ and Complex have reported spikes in engagement every time the two drop even a hint about each other, and you can't scroll Instagram without seeing takes and memes on who actually “won” the beef.But wait, the gossip storm hit a whole new level at London’s Wireless Festival just this weekend, where Drake took over as headliner. The crowd started chanting “F--- Kendrick,” and Drake didn’t just enjoy it—he smiled, called for a celebratory shot, and basically basked in the shade. That moment, caught on video and blasted across every major rap blog and Twitter account, had fans and commentators speculating: Has Drake just embraced being the villain in this feud? Not to mention, he brought out a parade of featured artists, and fans are decoding his line-up and setlist for more subliminals at Kendrick.As if things couldn’t get more sensational, rumors have exploded in the last 48 hours about the next Super Bowl halftime show. The U.S. Sun and tons of music insiders are saying Bad Bunny, headliner for 2026, wants to bring out Drake on stage as a sign of loyalty and chemistry from their “MIA” hit. The possibility of Drake touching the Super Bowl stage after Kendrick absolutely stole the show last year is setting up what fans see as a titanic showdown, live and back-to-back on one of the biggest platforms in the world.On top of that, all eyes are still on Kendrick, who’s basically been silent on socials since his last major diss release. That silence, of course, is its own kind of power play, as fans keep his name trending with endless speculation and breakdowns of lyrics. A lot of people think Kendrick is plotting either a surprise move or letting Drake’s legal noise keep the attention off his own projects cooking in the background.It’s wild to see both artists weaponizing every platform possible—music, festivals, the courts, social media, even the NFL stage—turning what started as a lyrical rivalry into a full-on, multi-industry spectacle.And there you have it, listeners. That’s the latest tea from the past few days on the Drake and Kendrick Lamar feud. Thanks so much for listening to the Drake versus Lamar podcast.

Listeners, things have absolutely exploded again between Drake and Kendrick Lamar over the past few days, both on social media and in the press. If you thought the feud was simmering down, think again—this rivalry has reached whole new levels, and everyone from celebrities to fans is glued to every single update.Right now, the biggest story is that Drake has officially taken their beef from the studio to the courtroom. According to The Hollywood Reporter, he’s filed a defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group, which just so happens to house both artists under different divisions. Drake claims Universal helped boost streams and promoted Kendrick’s diss track “Not Like Us” by making secret deals and cutting licensing rates for partners to push the song and damage Drake’s brand during critical contract negotiations. In the latest legal move, Drake is asking the court to force Universal to hand over Kendrick’s contract and any info related to allegations of domestic violence involving Kendrick. The accusations flying around are seriously wild and fans are debating hard: is this about respect, music, or pure revenge?This legal feud only adds more heat to the endless shade and speculation flying around social media. On Threads, the discourse is fierce—people are saying that Drake’s biggest slip-up was not zeroing in on Kendrick as his main competition when it mattered most, especially on tracks like “Family Matters.” Many think Kendrick’s “Euphoria” hit much harder and had more impact, with fans calling every one of Kendrick’s responses sharper and more focused than Drake’s.Social media lately is awash with reaction videos, memes, and side-taking. Some claim Drake is trying too hard to distance himself from the personal claims in Kendrick’s lyrics by “lawyering up” instead of responding with music. But Drake’s loyal base is defending his decision, arguing he’s protecting his business and reputation while Kendrick’s camp is just fueling the chaos for the culture.Meanwhile, outlets like AOL and others report that even major celebrities are weighing in. Will Ferrell and Ana Gasteyer joked about the beef on SNL and said maybe it’s time for both to squash it altogether, but the Instagram and TikTok crowd? Not having it—everybody wants more smoke, not less.Then, adding to the drama, Kendrick is absolutely living for the moment. He used a massive crowd at his recent Brazil show to send what many fans and even some commentators on YouTube called a “terrifying warning” to Drake and the music industry as a whole, performing his biggest diss lines while the crowd chanted and hyped up the rivalry even more.Of course, both artists still found time to drop Grammy-nominated music in the background of all this, and there’s talk about whether the feud is hurting or actually helping their Grammy chances for next year. Some insiders point out that the ever-escalating beef has made both artists more visible than ever.Listeners, I have to say, if you’re obsessed with every beat and every petty social post like I am, you know there’s no end in sight. People are screenshotting DMs, replaying old interviews, dissecting body language, and searching for any sign of who’s got the upper hand. Every time you think one of them might back down, the other comes back twice as hard—either with a new verse, a snipe on stage, or a court filing that throws more fuel on the fire.That’s all the major gossip and behind-the-scenes drama for this week on the Drake versus Lamar saga.

Listeners, the past few days in the Drake and Kendrick Lamar saga have been absolutely electric—let me unpack what everyone’s buzzing about. The social media debate over their feud just won’t let up, and if anything, it’s heated up all over again after some key developments. For starters, Rubi Rose reignited the Drake vs. Kendrick debate with a viral tweet saying, “Remember when [people] tried to say, ‘Kendrick over Drake’? LOL, WTF.” Instantly, fans from both camps started going off. Drake fans were all over the charts argument, saying numbers don’t lie and that he’s the real chart ruler, while Kendrick stans clapped back, reminding everyone about “Not Like Us” and how that song became the anthem of the feud, sealing what they call Kendrick’s “victory lap.”But Drake hasn’t exactly taken this lying down. If you follow his Instagram, you probably caught that cryptic post where Drake teased his “next chapter.” He talked about being non-confrontational while throwing in some subtle hints that he might not be done with the drama. He told fans he hopes his honesty brings some clarity and dropped some emotional breadcrumbs, making it clear he’s been feeling the weight of public perception lately, especially after all those barbs about being a “culture vulture.” In a recent podcast interview with Bobbi Althoff, Drake actually opened up about how hard it hits when people twist his intentions, especially with all the talk about him “using other artists” for clout—a charge Kendrick threw straight at him in those savage diss tracks last year. Drake insisted his collaborations come from a place of respect and support, but you can tell all this back-and-forth has gotten under his skin.Meanwhile, Kendrick’s been on tour in South America, but there was some drama over the weekend when his big Colombia concert got axed just an hour before showtime. The official story is “logistical issues,” but social media ran wild. Some fans roasted the event organizers, while others couldn’t resist poking at Kendrick, joking that he’s not at Drake’s level and blaming low ticket sales. There’s also been buzz about new skits Kendrick’s introducing on this leg of the tour—listeners online are convinced these are subtle digs at Drake, especially in light of Drizzy’s ongoing lawsuit over “Not Like Us.” Everyone from A$AP Rocky to rap blogs has weighed in, with Rocky calling the feud “healthy for hip-hop” but saying he hates that it’s moved into legal battles.Let’s talk social media drama too, because that’s where the mess really happens. This week, Drake clapped back at an Instagram user who compared him unfavorably to streamer BenDaDonnn, dropping a sarcastic remark about the critic working in an Applebee’s kitchen. Drake’s been showing love to BenDaDonnn lately, even while throwing playful shade at streaming personalities like Kai Cenat, which just keeps his name swirling on every hip hop thread. Public reactions have been split between those supporting Drake for defending his legacy and others calling him petty for even engaging with online critics.And you know gossip never sleeps—there’s even been chatter about more intimate stuff involving Drake, and I can tell you, listeners, the internet’s abuzz with speculation about certain leaked images. But as always, it’s hard to separate rumor from reality, especially with Drake himself mostly staying cryptic.Last thing before we wrap—Drake fans are holding their breath for his next solo project after that joint album with PartyNextDoor. With Kendrick still relishing the afterglow of his Super Bowl win and “Not Like Us” becoming a cultural moment, it feels like the public is still very much locked into this rivalry, and honestly, I’m here for every minute of it.That’s all for this episode—thank you so much for tuning in to the Drake versus Lamar podcast.

Listeners, over the last several days, the Drake and Kendrick Lamar feud is still making headlines and captivating the music world, with the drama only getting more intense. Since Drake dropped “The Heart Part 6,” his latest diss track, he’s been explicitly denying the sexual predator allegations Kendrick threw his way. Drake uses the track to directly push back against those claims, saying he’s never been with anyone underage, which is his strongest public response yet to Kendrick’s string of attacks that started with tracks like “Meet the Grahams.” Meanwhile, Kendrick’s approach has kept the feud personal and relentless, with accusations not just about Drake’s alleged conduct but also shots at his OVO label and even his family life.The back-and-forth between these two has become the biggest rap beef of the era, and social media is absolutely wild with hot takes, memes, breakdowns of every lyric, and theories about who’s winning each round. Fans on platforms like X and Reddit are debating whether Drake’s rebuttals are enough to counter Kendrick’s icy precision and hard-hitting accusations. Some listeners are siding with Kendrick for his sharp lyricism and brutal vulnerability, while others think Drake’s attempts to clear his name and defend his legacy are starting to get more sympathetic, especially after all the personal mudslinging.Elsewhere, Drake’s been showing he’s anything but fazed by the drama, at least in public. He was just spotted at Munich’s Oktoberfest, rocking a $15,000 vintage Chanel lederhosen, complete with a white shirt and clear glasses, totally embracing the German party vibes. It’s been making the rounds online, with people both clowning him for his “white boy” look, and some giving him props for not taking himself too seriously and joining in on the fun, even as his reputation is on the line in North America.And get this, despite all the beef, Drake’s still breaking records. He just became the first artist to hit 120 billion streams on Spotify — a reminder that no matter the controversy, the masses are still playing his music nonstop. He’s also making moves to unite, instead of just divide. He’s bringing out Vybz Kartel for the first time ever in Toronto for OVO Fest, and the dancehall king is set to headline two sold-out shows at Scotiabank Arena for Drake’s birthday celebrations. Fans are buzzing about this cross-cultural moment, and Drake’s efforts to keep linking up with global talent haven’t gone unnoticed in Jamaica or the UK, where Kartel recently hit the stage with him to huge crowds.On the Kendrick side, the internet is still dissecting his latest warnings to Drake from his record-breaking performances, with entire forums lit up over what his next move might be. People are speculating about new tracks, possible collaborations, or if he’s gearing up for another round of lyrical warfare. And let’s not forget Eminem’s words are trending again, since he predicted years ago that fans would eventually turn on Drake, a sentiment echoing extra loudly now that the feud’s gotten so personal and the public is fiercely divided.One last twist: Young Thug gave a shoutout to Drake, 21 Savage, and Lil Baby for standing by him during his own legal controversies—fans are loving the loyalty in hip-hop even as old friendships like Drake and Future’s seem a bit rocky after everything that’s gone down, especially after Future’s involvement in sparking some of this rap drama with Kendrick.Listeners, thank you for tuning in to the Drake versus Lamar podcast.

So much has happened with Drake and Kendrick Lamar lately, so let’s dive right in, listeners! Over the past few days, Drake’s been all over the news – not just for the feud with Lamar, but for everything from new music to viral mishaps and even a little drama with some of his former inner circle. Let’s unpack the latest tea and give you that full obsessive Patrick-level breakdown.Drake just dropped a new album with PARTYNEXTDOOR, and in one of the standout tracks, “Gimme a Hug,” he takes some not-so-subtle jabs that most folks are reading as direct shots at Kendrick. He starts off calling out “Drake elimination, fake intimidation,” which is partly throwing shade at Kanye West for past comments, but soon he’s in full defense mode, likening himself to Neo dodging bullets and calling out folks who, as he claims, use his name for promotion. The real kicker is when he raps about people preying on his downfall, and he takes one final swipe at Lamar’s style by alluding to women twerking with dictionaries if Lamar took his spot. That’s that intellectual “Not Like Us” energy he’s mocking, for sure. But, despite all the back and forth, Drake ends the track pretty much saying he’s over the beef and just wants to party. Of course, we know Drake says he’s “moving on,” but the saga is clearly alive and well online.If you're all about the Kendrick side, the buzz is that Drake’s trying to shift the narrative, especially since Kendrick’s “Not Like Us” was such a massive cultural moment, reaching a fever pitch during the Super Bowl halftime show. The internet is still dissecting every lyric, with fan debates raging on Instagram comments and Twitter threads. Plus, while Drake has initiated some legal action involving Universal Music Group over the supposed defamation from the “Not Like Us” lyrics, he notably hasn’t sued Kendrick directly. That legal drama adds fuel to fan theories that the beef is “a business move” or “deeper than rap.” During the Super Bowl, Kendrick even mocked the whole lawsuit idea on stage, which had Twitter in stitches.But it’s not only industry diss tracks. Over the weekend, social media exploded with a viral “thirst trap” mirror selfie that people genuinely believed was Drake. Cue the chaos. Twitter and Reddit ate it up – tons of thirsty comments, people joking about his selfie game, and even a Reddit thread dragging him for “cultural touring” after some Oktoberfest snaps surfaced. Turns out, oops, it wasn’t Drake in the mirror pic at all, but a Brazilian guy named Arthur Neves who had a good laugh at the internet’s confusion. Still, that moment basically became another meme attached to Drake’s name, and the conversation about his online presence – his look, his tats, his hair, the legend of his selfies – just keeps going strong.Let’s not forget Drake and LeBron James. LeBron addressed the rumors about their so-called falling out, which absolutely does tie back to the Drake-Kendrick feud. Ever since LeBron showed love at Kendrick’s Pop Out show in LA, Drake has apparently not been thrilled, dropping a few sly disses including a switch-up of his classic “6 to 23 like I’m LeBron” lyric during a tour stop. LeBron, for his part, is publicly saying it’s all love, and that they're just at different places in life, but everyone can tell – fans are picking sides and the whole vibe of their decade-long friendship has changed.Drake, meanwhile, made headlines at his Australian tour stop when he took the stage wearing a hoodie riddled with fake bullet holes and smoke trailing behind, playing into the whole “people want to see me gone, but I’m still here” persona. His dad, Dennis Graham, was filmed shrugging off Kendrick’s Grammy wins for “Not Like Us,” basically saying, “I don’t care about that stuff,” adding another comedic layer for fans dissecting family reactions.Throughout all of this, Kendrick is still basking in the huge success of “Not Like Us,” winning Song of the Year and Record of the Year at the Grammys, and owning the narrative in L.A. There’s nonstop speculation about when – or even if – these two will have a real-life reconciliation. For now, listeners, neither shows any sign of giving in, and fans online are refusing to let the fire die down.That’s the latest drama, gossip, and all the behind-the-scenes back and forth between Drake and Kendrick Lamar.

Drake and Kendrick Lamar’s feud has been absolutely electric over the last week, and listeners, the ripples are everywhere—from the Grammys to NBA locker rooms to the wildest corners of social media. Let’s get into the most juicy updates. Kendrick’s track “Not Like Us” was the moment—he took home five Grammys this year for it, including song of the year and record of the year, all while calling out Drake with some of the most personal bars we’ve heard in the history of mainstream hip-hop. Lamar’s performance of “Not Like Us” at the Super Bowl Halftime only made the song more iconic, especially considering he hyped up the entire controversy on that huge stage.Drake, for his part, has stayed mostly silent on Kendrick’s wins, but that hasn't stopped him from making big moves of his own. He teased new music almost instantly after the Grammy results hit, promising new tracks with PartyNextDoor and even previewing material while on his Anita Max Win Tour in Australia. Drake made a statement at that show, saying he’s “very much alive,” which a lot of fans read as a direct response to all the speculation that Lamar’s attacks had finished him off creatively or reputationally. That’s classic Drizzy—channeling the drama right back into his next act.Let’s not ignore the latest wrinkle: the drama with Drake’s inner circle and former supporters. The most viral moment this week was NBA superstar LeBron James, once publicly loyal to Drake, finally speaking out about the state of their friendship. After LeBron was filmed enjoying Kendrick’s “Not Like Us” at the Pop Out concert, fans were brutal in trolling him, wondering how he could “wish [Drake] the best” while vibing to a song that accuses Drake of predatory behavior. LeBron addressed the tension directly in two major interviews, saying it’s “always love” but admitting they’re in “different places right now.” Meanwhile, the internet lost it when Drake appeared to have covered up his tattoo of LeBron with a new one honoring Canadian NBA star Shai Gilgeous-Alexander. Those subtle moves sent fans on both sides into a complete frenzy.On the legal front, one of the biggest plot twists is Drake’s lawsuit against Universal Music Group. He claims they helped make “Not Like Us” a viral smash knowing it falsely accuses him of being a pedophile. Universal responded publicly, denying everything and reminding everyone how much they’ve invested in Drake’s career. The feud, for now, has spilled way beyond music—no one expected diss tracks to get the courts involved, but that’s where we are.Social media this week has been relentless. Aside from memes about LeBron and Drake’s barely-there friendship, there’s huge anticipation around Drake’s rumored “ICEMAN” album, and even more speculation about whether future tracks will keep the feud going, especially since leaks are hitting TikTok and X within hours. Meanwhile, Kendrick’s still floating on the glow of that Grammy sweep, and from what we’re hearing, there’s no pullback—he and his camp are savoring this as a defining victory.And a bonus for everyone obsessed with the meta side of this: Drake is teaming up with IShowSpeed for a livestream in Toronto, which fans are hoping will break the internet the minute it happens. That combo—Drake’s cool and IShowSpeed’s chaotic energy—has me counting down the days till it happens, because who knows what could go down live.So, that’s where we stand—new music, new grudges, friendships being tested, lawsuits, and zero sign of the hype dying down.

Alright, everyone, you’re listening to the Drake versus Lamar podcast, and I’m Patrick—your gossip and news expert with a borderline obsession for everything Drake, Lamar, and all the spicy drama between them. There’s been a ton to unpack over the past few days, so let’s dive into what’s really shaking up the socials, the music world, and even awards shows.First up, let’s talk about Drake’s latest move. He just dropped the music video for his new song “Nokia” from the album “Some Sexy Songs 4 U,” and, wow, people are dissecting every frame. The black-and-white visuals, the old-school cell phones, and especially all those owls—fans are convinced this is a direct shot back at Kendrick. Remember how Lamar’s “Not Like Us” video ended with him locking up an owl in a cage? That owl is Drake’s signature, his brand, his whole thing. Now in “Nokia,” he’s got not just one but six owls, all free, chilling, not caged. Listeners, if that ain’t subtle, nothing is. Social media’s going wild with deep fandom theories: “From the owl’s viewpoint, it’s free…no worries in sight. From the hater’s viewpoint, the owl was caged, but little does he know…never that.” Fans are calling Drake “calculated” for working in references to Kendrick’s “Not Like Us” video choreography and even the way the video was shot. Some are on Twitter (X, whatever) saying, “Drake’s trolling Kendrick with every detail—handshakes, birds-eye views, dad dances, all of it.” There’s even chatter about how the whole “Nokia” concept—the nigh-indestructible phone—might be Drake slyly saying, “You can’t break me, Lamar.”But let’s not forget, this feud isn’t just about clever videos. We’re still feeling the aftershocks from the Super Bowl halftime show, where Lamar performed “Not Like Us” and called Drake out with major, stage-level theatrics—think Serena Williams cameo, subtle jewelry jabs, all that. And just when you thought things were quiet, there’s the ongoing drama with Drake’s lawsuit against Universal Music Group, accusing them of launching “Not Like Us” with full knowledge of its harsh accusations. UMG’s fighting back, calling the lawsuit a sore-loser move, and frankly, the whole industry’s watching to see how this plays out. No resolution yet, but even that legal back-and-forth is fueling the gossip cycle.Meanwhile, the rest of the rap world can’t get enough. There’s chatter about where J. Cole is in all this. DJ Akademiks just tweeted, “Whatever happened to J. Cole? Dude started the beef, lined up Drake to battle Kendrick, then dipped out.” That’s kind of true, isn’t it? Cole did jump into the fray, dropped a diss, apologized, and now he’s MIA—reportedly working on new music, but keeping low. Some feel he bailed because, in the end, it’s not worth losing a friend over some internet clout. He even said in a recent song, “They wanted blood, they wanted clicks, but I pulled the plug because I would’ve lost a bro and gained a foe.” So, while Drake and Kendrick are still trading blows, Cole’s watching from the sidelines, focused on his next project.Oh, and let’s not forget the comedy world is jumping in on the action. Tina Fey just hosted the Emmys and while announcing nominations, slipped in some playful shade about the Drake-Lamar feud. She didn’t name them directly, but it was clear enough for anyone who’s keeping up with hip-hop headlines. Even awards shows don’t mind poking the bear—it just goes to show how much this beef has crossed over into mainstream pop culture.On the music front, Drake’s teasing a new album, “Iceman,” expected later this year. That’s gonna be one to watch, because you know he’ll drop more hints, jabs, and maybe even a whole diss track, depending on how things go. Right now, the vibe is neither of them is backing down. The owls are free, the bars are flying, and the internet is feasting on every detail.So, listeners, buckle up. Social media’s got a new theory every hour, the industry’s watching, and I’m Patrick, here to keep you in the loop. Don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss a beat, and come back next week for more Drake versus Lamar, where drama and drops never stop.Thank you all for tuning in to the Drake versus Lamar podcast—subscribe for more, tell your friends, and keep those notifications on.

Listeners, the past few days in the Drake and Kendrick Lamar feud have been absolutely explosive on social media, with new layers of drama surfacing from every corner of the hip hop world. Drake gave a candid interview on Bobbi Althoff's Not This Again podcast, finally opening up about the intense scrutiny he’s faced ever since Lamar started slinging those culture vulture accusations. Lamar’s “Euphoria” and “Not Like Us” tracks went heavy on the criticism—calling Drake out as a colonizer, a manipulator, even a scam artist—and fans have been dissecting every bar. Drake says he feels misunderstood, insisting his collabs are about helping new artists shine, not using them for clout, and he admitted the accusations do actually get under his skin.The feud ripples even further into the rap community. Young Thug just dropped his emotional apology track “Man I Miss My Dogs,” where he openly pleads for reconciliation with both Drake and Future, and gives Drake his flowers for always supporting him—even visiting Thug in jail. Drake responded with a quiet but meaningful Instagram “like” on Thug’s post, and listeners are reading that as a possible olive branch, especially since Thug specifically asks for Metro Boomin and Future to squash their beef. Young Thug’s new album “UY Scuti” is coming out September 19, and fans are buzzing to see if any surprises or peace offerings land in the tracklist.In the world of hip hop podcasting and commentary, DJ Akademiks has been stirring the pot, loudly denying rumors that Drake’s ongoing lawsuit with Universal Music Group is tangled up in any RICO investigations related to radio payola. Akademiks thinks Drake should actually set his legal sights on Kendrick Lamar and pursue a defamation case, rather than bother with UMG, especially since the key complaints are about bot-driven streaming and the huge impact of “Not Like Us.” The lawsuit drama and legal mudslinging over streaming numbers are still swirling—UMG’s CEO shot back at Drake publicly just as evidence from Drake’s side started coming in.Meanwhile, social media erupted again after a documentary scene showed Drake bluntly claiming he doesn’t care if other artists hate his music—“I don’t give a f**k,” he said. But that triggered reminders of how, when critics like Anthony Fantano or Joe Budden have come after Drake, he’s been far from indifferent, famously unloading on Budden in a fiery Instagram tirade and sliding into Fantano’s DMs with cookie recipes and sharp jabs.And let’s not forget DJ Khaled, who, ever the optimist, keeps preaching that peace can be restored between Drake, Future, and Rick Ross, pointing out that beefs like these happen every day in close circles. Still, listeners know the messy back-and-forth on social media between Ross and Drake—nose job rumors, shady comments, and all—mean that cool heads haven’t prevailed just yet.With Young Thug’s public apology, Kendrick’s relentless bars, and the legal battles heating up, fans everywhere have been glued to every social feed and podcast drop. Drake’s next move is anybody’s guess—will he stick to his tough talk or finally try to end one of the most compelling feuds in hip-hop history?Listeners, thanks for tuning in to the Drake versus Lamar podcast!

Drake and Kendrick Lamar’s feud has absolutely dominated the culture these past few days, with new music and spicy social media reactions fueling the fire nonstop. Let’s dive into what’s been going down for all my fellow bickering-obsessed listeners. Drake just dropped a brand new single called "Dog House" featuring Yeat and Julia Wolf, and socials are lit with takes: a lot of fans claim Yeat totally outshined Drake on his own track—honestly, Twitter and TikTok are packed with people clowning Drizzy, saying Yeat “washed” him and that Drake sounded low-energy compared to his young collaborator. Julia Wolf, for her part, is loving every second, posting genuine freakouts and disbelief about being on a song with both superstars. Drake teased the track in his latest Iceman livestream, which has been building buzz for his next album, and his European tour stops are coming up just as this single heats the debate.But the drama isn’t just about music, because behind the scenes, long-running tensions are bubbling. Social media’s still chattering about that leaked Young Thug phone call, where Thug accuses Drake of being insensitive to Metro Boomin after the tragic loss of Metro’s mother. This shed new light on the Drake vs. Metro Boomin tension: apparently Drake was more focused on work than offering support, which seriously disappointed Thug. For listeners who love the behind-the-scenes tea, this adds a whole other layer to the current rap cold war.And if you thought the Kendrick side of the drama was quieting down, think again. Kendrick Lamar recently performed “Not Like Us” in Toronto—Drake’s own backyard—and the crowd completely lost it. That performance was a huge moment: Kendrick’s diss tracks “Euphoria” and “Not Like Us” not only called out Drake’s credibility, rap persona, and alleged “culture vulture” moves, but also made headlines for just how savage he got. He slammed Drake for allegedly using collaborations for clout and status, and called him out for trying too hard to fit into scenes he supposedly doesn’t belong to. Those lyrics are still being quoted and meme’d everywhere. Drake, by the way, addressed some of the “culture vulture” accusations in a new interview, saying he’s hurt by people spinning his collaborations as self-serving, and that his intentions have always been pure, but honestly, fans aren’t letting him off that easy.Even SZA’s been sucked into the crossfire. Drake name-checked her in a leaked diss aimed at Kendrick, putting her in that “Big 3” conversation, and SZA’s reaction was all meme—she wasn’t having it, posting that classic NeNe Leakes “Now why am I in this?” video. The internet loved that. SZA and Drake’s own recent collabs have also gotten dissected, especially after she said she thought Drake might sabotage her with some less-than-polished vocals. That brought up some nostalgia and more old drama about their relationship way back.This feud has hit every corner: from the public arena to private phone calls, from new tracks to meme reactions—it’s truly everywhere. For the latest, everybody’s keeping a close eye on Drake’s upcoming album, especially if he’ll fire any more shots at Kendrick or anyone else who’s been throwing shade. The tension behind Drake and his producers 40 and Boi-1da has even gotten some new attention, with Stat Quo claiming they “hated each other for years,” which, honestly, just adds to the sense that problems are bubbling up all around the OVO camp.Thanks so much for tuning in to this week’s Drake versus Lamar podcast—make sure you subscribe, because the drama is evolving by the hour, and we’ll always be here to break it down first.
