Who won the Kendrick Lamar v Drake beef?
By Yemi Abiade
You’d be forgiven for blinking and missing some of the detail, given how fast this confrontation has moved.
Joseph “JP” Patterson, editor-in-chief of Complex UK and founder of TRENCH magazine tells the BBC: “I might be the only person on this planet with this viewpoint, but Taylor Made Freestyle was pretty dope. I get the rap purist’s dismay around him using AI verses but even down to the beat, I was feeling it.”
Lamar’s 6:16 In LA followed, where he muses: “Have you ever thought that OVO [Drake’s record label] was working for me? / Everyone inside your team is whispering that you deserve it.” He threatens to shine a forensic light on Drake’s character to bring his reputation into disrepute, with help from inside Drake’s own label.
