Correct me if I’m wrong, but it looks like Drake is leading this “battle” at the moment. It’s been weeks and Kendrick Lamar still hasn’t fired back. Remember, K. Dot kicked off all this drama that turned into a royal rap rumble. But starting the beef doesn’t mean you’ve won it. Somehow, the Compton MC just hasn’t stepped up with a public response yet.
Meanwhile, Drake’s been busy dropping two new tracks, one even dabbling with A.I., stirring up some legal issues with the estate of the late, great Tupac Shakur. But hey, he responded—that’s what we call being a battle rap beast. As more time ticks by, does that mean Drake wins by default or forfeiture?
I’m not sure, but I do know that responses are expected quickly these days. That was a bit different back in the day with legends like Nas and JAY-Z, who had to navigate manufacturing plants and other logistical hurdles to get a record out. Those days are gone.
Straight talk—I’m hearing that Drake might just drop a third diss track aimed at Kendrick Lamar. That’s right—a third song. After being forced to scrap the A.I.-enhanced track with Snoop Dogg and 2Pac that nobody asked for, it seems he’s ready for more action.
The volume of tracks he’s putting out makes it seem like he’s in the lead. “Push-Ups” is a solid track and he absolutely kills it. Anyone saying otherwise is fooling themselves. With Kendrick Lamar’s silence, we’re in a real puzzle here. Of course, if Lamar decides to respond, all this talk becomes irrelevant. But for now, it’s radio silence from his side.
What do you all think? Is Drake winning this by sheer volume or are we in for a surprise counterpunch from Kendrick Lamar? For the record, all sources point to a response coming.
