Rap and hip-hop are not strangers to feuds and diss tracks. Although there was something extraordinary about the recent conflict between Drake and Kendrick Lamar. In his recent track called “The Heart Part 6”, Drake confessed to spreading fake information about Kendrick Lamar to undermine his reputation. This plot twist has certainly made it more interesting.

Over the years, the conflict between the two rap titans has continued to escalate, leading to multiple diss tracks aimed at each other. However, the situation significantly worsened when Kendrick Lamar attacked Drake for keeping his child secret and being involved with underage girls.Drake’s response came in the form of “The Heart Part 6,” in which the OVO leader firmly denied Kendrick’s accusations while admitting to having someone in his team feed the rapper false information about him having an 11-year-old daughter.
Drake’s lyrics, “Only fn’ with Whitneys, not Millie Bobby Browns / I’d never look twice at no teenager / I’m a fn’ hitmaker dog, not a peacemaker,” are a clear denial of the accusations against him. He also mentions Lamar’s fiancée, Whitney Alford, and actor Millie Bobby Brown, hinting at the controversy surrounding his text message communication with the then-14-year-old actor.
Drake’s song takes a turn when he feigns that he may have deceived Lamar by sharing the untrue details about a secret 11-year-old daughter. But Lamar had mentioned this in the track, “meet the grahams”. Drake sings,
“We plotted for a week and then we fed you the information / A daughter that’s eleven years old, I bet he takes it / We thought about giving a fake name or a destination / But you so thirsty, you not concerned with investigation.”
This revelation turns a new page in the duet’s feud, which has lasted for months and includes multiple rap tracks targeting one another. The weekend was intense from the start, with Lamar launching his “6:16 in LA” on Friday, to which Drake responded with his “Family Matters” released even on the same day . Lamar stepped up his game, however, with “meet the grahams” before resuming yet another track, “Not Like Us,” on Saturday.
It was this revelation that triggered the revival of allegations surrounding underage with Drake. The revelation has sparked outrage in the hip-hop culture. It disclosed false information to Lamar, demonstrating him as someone who could freely share false data without verification. By revealing the lie, Drake took the opportunity to justify himself.
Kendrick Lamar jumped at the chance to respond, accusing Drake in his “Euphoria” track of being a “manipulator and habitual liar” and criticizing his child-rearing. He also suggested that Drake is a “sellout” since he creates new music to “pacify” fans. This hip-hop universe catastrophe is going down, with Drake and Kendrick Lamar squashing their beef. The tension between two of the greatest players to ever do it has taken the hip-hop world by force.
Fans are on the edge of their seats, anxious to see what the heck is going on! One point is sure: the rappers’ beef is no longer solely a problem of “who can rap better,” and it is a battle of political misinformation and reputation ruin.
