The rap feud is on! Drake releases “Family Matters” diss track aimed at Kendrick Lamar. Get the scoop and listen to the song!
The long-simmering feud between rap titans Drake and Kendrick Lamar has officially reached boiling point. After weeks of speculation and cryptic social media posts, Drake dropped a surprise diss track titled “Family Matters” on Friday, May 3rd, 2024.
This fiery response follows Kendrick’s recent diss tracks, “Euphoria” and “6:16 in LA,” which took aim at Drake’s perceived inauthenticity and reliance on ghostwriters. Drake doesn’t hold back in “Family Matters,” unleashing a barrage of scathing lyrics that target Kendrick directly, alongside other perceived rivals like Rick Ross, ASAP Rocky, Future, and The Weeknd.
The seven-minute track is a lyrical fusillade, with Drake addressing various aspects of the ongoing beef. He mocks Kendrick’s rapping style, questions his relationship with his wife Whitney, and even throws shade at his fatherhood. Lines like “You’re making her black messiah a hybrid queen/And drinking vanilla cream to boost your self-esteem” and “Why didn’t you ever hold your son and tell him what you’re giving him?” him, say cheese?/We coulda left the kids outta this, don’t blame me” showcase the ruthless approach Drake takes.
“Family Matters” also expands the target list, with Drake taking shots at other rappers who have seemingly jabbed at him in the past. While the metaphors and wordplay remain typically Drake, the overall tone is one of aggression and a desire to silence his detractors.
The release of “Family Matters” has sent shockwaves through the hip-hop world. Fans are eagerly dissecting the lyrics, analyzing every wordplay and potential reference. Social media is abuzz with reactions, with some praising Drake’s fiery comeback and others questioning the personal nature of his attacks.
Will Kendrick Lamar respond with another diss track? Will this escalate the feud further, or will “Family Matters” be the final word? Only time will tell. However, one thing is certain: the rap battle between Drake and Kendrick Lamar is far from over, and “Family Matters” has ignited the flames once again.
