The Drake & Kendrick Lamar beef has become legendary where mainstream news outlets are even reporting on it.

Lil Wayne who has been instrumental in the career of the Toronto born rap star has also caught a stray in the beef between KDot and Drizzy. Lamar raps, “Fucked on Wayne’s girl while he was in jail, that’s conniving / Then get his face tatted like a bitch, apologizing.”

Lil Wayne has confirmed the situation in a past interview. He first mentioned it in 2016’s Gone ‘Til November, which details his time in prison for weapon possession.

To be fair, the act of betrayal happened before Wayne and the unnamed began dating, but it hurt him.

“As a man, honestly, that shit hurt…and not because it was Drake. It could’ve been any man and it would’ve hurt the same. She said it happened way before we got together, but she just never told me.”

A COMPREHENSIVE TIMELINE OF LAMAR VS DRAKE OVER WEEKEND

**Drake vs. Kendrick: The Background**

For over a decade, Kendrick Lamar, a 17-time Grammy winner and the 2018 Pulitzer Prize for Music recipient, has stirred controversy with his bold claim as “the greatest rapper alive.” Despite past collaborations with both Cole and Drake, Lamar has not shied away from taking shots at them. Examples include his guest verse on the 2013 Big Sean track “Control” and his memorable jab at Drake during the BET Awards of the same year. Moreover, many fans interpret his 2015 song “King Kunta” as a reference to allegations of Drake using ghostwriters.

Last autumn, Drake released his eighth album “For All The Dogs,” featuring a track with J. Cole titled “First Person Shooter.” The song, which swiftly rose in the US charts, notably referenced a contemporary hip-hop triumvirate involving Lamar, Drake, and Cole.

Nearly three weeks after “Like That,” Drake’s highly anticipated response emerged in the form of a leaked track titled “Push Ups,” later officially released on April 19. In this song, Drake targeted various figures, including The Weeknd, Rick Ross, Metro Boomin, J. Cole, and prominently, Lamar.

Drake retaliated swiftly with “Family Matters,” accusing Lamar of soliciting a cease-and-desist from Tupac Shakur’s estate and implying domestic abuse, though no public allegations against Lamar have ever been made. The song also targeted Rick Ross, Baby Keem, The Weeknd, and Metro Boomin, with subtle jabs at Lamar throughout the video.
