Rapper Kendrick Lamar, who was featured on Future and Metro Boomin’s record, poked fun at his colleagues Drake and J. Cole.
Lamar, who is featured on the song “Like That,” caused a stir on social media when he seemed to be disparaging rappers Drake and J. Cole by referencing their collaboration song “First Person Shooter,” which was released in 2023.
He spat in both of their faces, rapping, “Yeah, get up with me, f*** sneak dissing/’First Person Shooter,’ I hope they came with three switches.” Lamar continues, adding “think I won’t drop the location/ I still got PTSD, motherf– the big three, it’s just big me,” which may be in reference to a line on “First Person Shooter” in which Cole refers to Lamar, Drake and himself as the “big three” of rap.
He then seemingly took a direct diss at Drake by referencing the Canadian rapper’s latest album “For All The Dogs” by saying “‘fore all your dogs gettin’ buried/ that’s a K with all these nines, he gon’ see ‘Pet Sematary.’”
Remember, on Drake and Cole’s “First Person Shooter” duet and Cole rapped, “Love when they argue the hardest MC/Is it K-Dot? Is it Aubrey? Or me?/We the Big3 like we started a league, but right now, I feel like Muhammad Ali.”
Drake also decided to cut Kendrick out of the equation in his verse. He rapped “Who the GOAT? Who you bitches really rooting for?/Like a kid that act bad from January to November, n****, it’s just you and Cole.”
Fans are scrambling to know what went wrong; Drake co-starred on Kendrick’s debut album “good kid, m.A.A.d city” and brought him along on his ‘Club Paradise’ Tour to elevate his career. So, they’ve been friendly over the years.
Cole and Kendrick were once in hot pursuit of doing a joint LP together, and he and Metro Boomin were recently in the studio together too.
Metro’s been beefing with Drake for months, but Future and Drake won a Grammy together last year.
