Drake claims he’s got Kendrick Lamar “in shambles” after K. Dot accused Drizzy of hiding a secret daughter in his bombshell diss “Meet The Grahams.” 

Lamar’s latest response to the OVO Sound boss arrived less than an hour after Drake dropped “Family Matters” on May 3. As the titles of the new tracks indicate, the beef is getting deeply personal with both rappers addressing the other’s family and associates. 

Shortly after Lamar dropped “Meet The Grahams” Drake reacted to the secret daughter allegations. 

“nahhhh hold on,” he wrote on his Instagram Story alongside several crying-with-laughter emojis. “Can someone find me hidden daughter pls and send her to me…these guys are in shambles.” 

Lamar opens “Meet The Grahams” by addressing Adonis, the child Pusha T accused Drake of hiding, in his “The Story of Adidon Diss.” He then takes a leaf from King Push’s book and claims Drake has a secret 11-year-old daughter. 

“Dear baby girl, I’m sorry that your father not active inside your world,” Lamar raps. “He a narcissist, misogynist, livin’ inside his songs/Try destroy families rather than takin’ care of his own/Should be teachin’ you time tables or watchin’ Frozen with you/Or at your eleventh birthday, singin’ poems with you.” 

Lamar also tells the mystery little girl ” it’s not your fault that he’s hidin’ another child” before saying he made his Mr. Morale album “so our babies like you can cope later.” 

He also calls Drake a deadbeat and gives his alleged child some advice. “I never wanna hear you chase a man ’cause his failed behavior,’ he continued. “Sittin’ in the club with sugar daddies for validation.” 

Kendrick Lamar concludes the track with an explosive accusation, claiming Drake has multiple kids.  

“You lied about your son, you lied about your daughter,” he added. “You lied about them other kids that’s out there hopin’ that you come.” 

Kendrick Lamar evidently had a response to Drake locked and loaded. Less than an hour after the OVO leader fired off “Family Matters,” K. Dot unleashed “Meet The Grahams” on YouTube, a reference to Drake’s surname. This time, he starts off the track by apologizing to Drake’s son Adonis for having to endure him as a father.

“It takes a man to be a man, your dad is not responsive/I look at him and wish your grandpa woulda wore a condom/I’m sorry that you gotta grow up and then stand behind him/Life is hard, I know, the challenges always gon’ be this home/Sometimes our parents make mistakes that affect us until we grown.”

From there, Kendrick implores Adonis to let him be his role model with, “And you a good kid that need good leadership/Let me be your mentor, since your daddy don’t teach you s###/Never let a man p### on your leg, son/Either you die right there or pop that man in the head, son/Never fall in the escort business, that’s bad religion/Always remember, you could be a b#### even if you got b######/Never code switch, whether right or wrong, you a Black man/Even if it don’t benefit your goals, do some push ups.”

Kendrick Lamar proceeds to address other members of Drake’s family, including father Dennis Graham and mother Sandi Graham. At one point, he tells Dennis he produced a “master manipulator.”

“I’m blamin’ you for all his gamblin’ addictions,” he continues. “Psychopath intuition, the man who like to play victim/You raised a horrible f#####’ person, the nerve of you, Dennis/Sandra, sit down, what I’m about to say is heavy, now listen/Mhm, your son’s a sick man with sick thoughts/I think n##### like him should die/Him and Weinstein should get f##### up in a cell for the rest they life.”

Rumor had it Kendrick was sitting on a 19-minute version of “euphoria,” which he dropped on Monday (April 30). “Meet The Grahams,” another more than six-minute offering, could possibly stem from that. Either way, the battle continues to heat up. Will this be the end of it? Only time will tell. Until then, listen to “Meet The Grahams” above and find “Family Matters” below.

Drake wasted no time firing back at Kendrick Lamar. On Friday night (May 3), the OVO Sound boss dropped “Family Matters,” a more than seven-minute diss track aimed at his current nemesis.

He begins the track with the word “n####,” the one word K. Dot said he didn’t want to hear him say anymore, and repeats it throughout the song. He also admits the “euphoria” line about Drake’s son struck a nerve.

“N#### I said it, I know that you mad,” he spits. “I’ve emptied the clip over friendlier jabs/You mentioned my seed now deal with his dad/I gotta go bad.” From there, he sings “I was really trying to keep it PG” over and over again, which could also be a reference to Kendrick’s label, pgLang.

It just grows more disrespectful from there, with Drake suggesting he has no proof to back up the claims he made in “6:16 in LA,” specifically about his own OVO camp members leaking private information.

“You know who really bang a set, my n#### YG,” he continues. “You know who really bang a set, my n#### Chuck T/You know who even bang out a set out there is CB [Chris Brown]/N#### Cole losing sleep on this it ain’t me/You better have some paperwork or that s### is fake tea/Can’t be rapping ’bout no ratting that we can’t read/I mean its true a n#### slimеd me for my ap.

“Just like how Metro n#### slimеd him for his main squeeze/Out here begging for attention n#### say please/Always rapping like you bout to get the slaves free/You just actin’ like an activist, it’s make believe.”

Just like Kendrick Lamar referenced Drake’s family, the 6 God goes after his with, “You say you hate the girls I f### but what ya really mean?/I been with black and white and everything that’s in between/You the black messiah wifing up a mixed queen/And hit vanilla cream to help out with your self-esteem/On some Bobby s### I wanna know what Whitney need/All that puppy love was over in your late teens.

“Why you never hold your son and say cheese?/We coulda left the kids outta this, don’t blame me/You a dog and you know it, you just play sweet/Your baby mama captions always screamin, ‘save me’/You did her dirty all her life, you tryna make peace/I heard that one of them little kids might be Dave Free.”

Drake also accuses Kendrick of calling the 2Pac estate to get the “Taylor Made Freestyle” diss taken down. Anyway, this is a developing story. Kendrick Lamar has already dropped another response. Check back with AllHipHop soon and dive into “Family Matters” above.

Once again, Drake has responded to Kendrick Lamar using his Instagram Stories—instead of his pen.

Hours after K. Dot unleashed “6:16 in LA,” the OVO king posted a clip of Denzel Washington in the film Equalizer 2 in which Washington’s character says, “I’m going to kill each and every one for you, and the only disappointment in it for me is that I’m only going to get to do it once.”

Lamar has been going for Drake’s jugular over the last week. On Tuesday (April 30), he fired off “euphoria,” a six-minute verbal attack that found the former Top Dawg artist ridiculing everything about Drake—from the way he walks to how he dresses. In fact, that bar inspired Drake’s first response on Instagram, a clip of Julia Stiles in the film 10 Things I Hate About You.

“It’s always been about love and hate, now let me say I’m the biggest hater,” Lamar raps. “I hate the way that you walk, the way that you talk, I hate the way that you dress/I hate the way that you sneak diss, if I catch flight, it’s gon’ be direct/We hate the b###### you f### ’cause they confuse themself with real women.

“And notice, I said “we,” it’s not just me, I’m what the culture feelin’/How many more fairytale stories ’bout your life ’til we had enough?/How many more Black features ’til you finally feel that you’re Black enough?”

Drake likely shared the Instagram Story featuring his son Adonis as another veiled response. The caption reads, “mirror time crodi,” presumably a reference to “euphoria.”

At one point in the track, Lamar integrates the Canadian slang with, “Don’t speak on the family, crodie/It can get deep in the family, crodie/Talk about me and my family, crodie?/Someone gon’ bleed in your family, crodie/I be at New Ho King eatin’ fried rice with a dip sauce and a blammy, crodie/Tell me you’re cheesin’, fam/We can do this right now on the camera, crodie.”

The impact “euphoria” has had on the music community has been palpable. Not only is the song No. 1 at Spotify U.S. and Apple Music, it also inspired an uptick in business at the aforementioned New Ho King, a restaurant in Drake’s hometown of Toronto. New Ho King’s owner, Johnny Lu, told City News, “He said good food and the fried rice – get more, more, more rice. The chef’s gonna be busy.”

Kendrick Lamar is supposedly sitting on a 19-minute version of “euphoria” he could decided to unleash at any moment. As for Drake, it’s his move.
