Buckle up folks because it looks like we’ve got some drama brewing in the rap world! Yup, you heard it right – fans are accusing none other than Kendrick Lamar of stealing their tweets and using them in his songs to throw shade at Drake.
Now, before we dive into the juicy details, let’s just take a moment to appreciate the irony of this situation. I mean, we’ve all seen our fair share of Twitter feuds and rap beefs, but using fans’ tweets as ammunition? That’s a new one, even for the hip-hop world.
Drake fans are doing everything they can to discredit Kendrick and his most recent track. Enter King Jared on Twitter. If you have been keeping tabs on the beef through X, you have certainly seen this account. The person behind the account moves as though they are Drake’s personal assistant. An OVO soldier tasked with finding anything they can to make K. Dot look bad. Well, last night, they came through with some old tweets that contain similar punchlines to what Lamar says on “Not Like Us.”
At first glance, it all looks pretty damning. After all, how could Kendrick steal punchlines? Doesn’t that go against the core tenets of rap? However, when you do a bit of critical thinking, you realize that these punchlines aren’t even the hardest-hitting bars on “Not Like Us.” Furthermore, these jokes and punchlines aren’t exactly original thoughts. It doesn’t take hours upon hours of brainstorming to come up with some of this stuff. Not to mention, it would be almost impossible to find these tweets if you searched “Drake” on Twitter. You have to really dig deep with the keywords to find these, and that’s clearly what King Jared did. However, this kind of accusation plays well amongst Drake fans on Twitter, and now, they are running with it. Is it possible that Kendrick did steal these punchlines from Twitter? Sure. That said, we will probably never know, and it’s ultimately up to the listener to decide where they stand on this.
As for Drake, well, he hasn’t directly addressed the situation yet. But knowing his history with rap beefs, we wouldn’t be surprised if he’s already cooking up a fiery response in the studio.
But for now, let’s just sit back, grab some popcorn, and enjoy the show. Because when it comes to rap feuds, you never know what twists and turns are waiting around the corner. Oh, Kendrick – what have you gotten yourself into this time?
