Drake has been in the spotlight in recent weeks as a number of his A-list friends have attacked him, with a reaction that many attributed to him circulating online.
On Saturday (April 13), a bar-heavy joint hit the internet with Drizzy referencing a number of ongoing beefs. This specifically includes attacks on Kendrick Lamar, whose verse on Future and Metro Boomin’s “Like That” sparked drama last month.
The voice on this track sounds like the Canadian superstar’s, but it’s not entirely clear if it’s real or generated by artificial intelligence. This subject relates directly to a number of beefs the 37-year-old is currently negotiating.
“You’d better do your shit show in-house/Maroon 5 needs a verse, you better be witty/Then you need a Swifties verse” the voice raps, referencing K.Dot’s previous crossover into pop music.
Regarding A$AP Rocky and The Weeknd’s recent fight and throwing shade at Drake, the song finds Kendrick comparing himself to Prince and his nemesis Michael Jackson. It continues to be mentioned.What the hell is this, 25 to 1, n-gga?/ What is a prince to a king? He’s a son, n-gga”
Additionally, the song also criticizes J. Cole (who recently withdrew from the war of words) and Rick Ross, suggesting that SZA deserves to be part of the Big Three more than Kendrick.Check out the full lyrics here, listen below. (Later on Saturday, a slightly different version of this song also leaked. Listen to it here).

Hip hop DX Drake’s team has not yet responded to a request for comment.
Fans are wondering if the song is real, and listeners are wondering: bothside or completely suspend judgment until the facts are known.
Earlier this week, Joe Budden claimed that Drizzy and K. Dot were preparing a nuclear diss song as part of their ongoing efforts ahead of the latest firing.About the episode joe budden podcast Published in early April, the media personality kicked things off by hyping the budding rivalry.
“Get out of there,” he said. “No matter what terrible thing you thought was going on, this isn’t it. And something is coming. I think J. Cole knows that from Kendrick or Drake or both. And , I’m no longer in the first round, so it’s time to withdraw…
“Kendrick got a bye on Cole’s apology, but I think the insiders know. In fact, the good news is we’re hearing that both sides have been in the booth and coming out.”
He added: “What I’m hearing on both sides is that it’s the nuclear issue. Up Up. I’m hearing stories like this from people who can rap, so I’m here to say that the time for speculation is over. The time for discussion is over.
“I’ve said a few times now that I’ve never seen a player from Drake that excites me enough to make me think he’s going to do what he needs to do against someone like Kendrick Lamar. I’m here to say that I don’t need to instigate it anymore.”
