Drake Released a new album with party textdoor and refers to its “rap beef” with Kendrick Lamar On the song “Gimme a hug.” It marks Drake’s first new music since Lamar’s Super Bowl Halv time show, where he performed Drake Diss “Not Like Us”, and sang texts that accused him of being a pedophile for an audience of 127 million.
Drake starts the song with “dragon elimination, fake hotidation”, which some have interpreted as a response to Kanye West, as on a Podcast last year talked about wanting to see “elimination” of Drake at the top of the music industry.
He continues to rap, “you neo in the matrix, these n – – just nemo in the sea”, compares to the character of “The Matrix” which avoids balls in slow movement to cheat death. Earlier this month, Drake arrived at a concert in Australia with a hoodie adorned with fake ball holes and signaled that he is still alive despite all the pictures taken against him. “Small fish, which make children feel emotions / use you for marketing,” continues Drake, referring to rappers who have used his name for his own success.
Later in the song, Drake Raps, “Funny how it is just TIK N – – waiting for the boy’s death /” cause if I die, is these n – – that becomes the only recipient / and what the hell are they gon “do with that? “People shout on Drake’s downfall – he wonders how they would fill his shoes. Without name Lamar, he assumes that the new king of hip hop would have girls” on stage twerkin “with a dictionary”, an obvious digging on Lamar’s more ” intellectual ‘rap style.
In the end, the song Drake’s desire to move on from its rap -cut meat with Lamar, which really started in March 2024 with Lamar’s verse on Metro Boomin and Future’s “Like That” and reached a climate with last week’s Super Bowl half -time show. “Fuck a rap beef, I’m tryna gets the party illuminated,” Rapes dragon towards the end of the song.
Still, while Drake may want to put his beef with Lamar at rest, the story is far from over. In November, Drake began legal action against Longtime Label Universal Music Group for slander to promote Lamar’s “Not Like Us”, saying that the song’s false accusations that Drake is a pedophile have put him and his family in danger. Lamar was particularly not appointed a defendant in a subsequent trial, but he still mocked Drake on stage on the Super Bowl and teased “Not Like Us” with a quip about the legal dispute – “I want to perform their favorite song, but you know they love to sue” – Before they continue with the song.
