Less than a full day after Kendrick Lamar released \u201c6:16 in LA,\u201d<\/a> Drake has responded to it, and \u201ceuphoria,\u201d<\/a> which arrived Tuesday (April 30). Drake\u2019s third jab at Kendrick comes after April\u2019s \u201cPush Ups\u201d<\/a> and \u201cTaylor Made\u201d\u2014which was removed from digital streaming platforms and online accounts after threat of legal action by Tupac Shakur\u2019s estate<\/a>. Within an hour of \u201cFAMILY MATTERS,\u201d Kendrick has fired back with \u201cmeet the grahams.\u201d Both songs, attempts at ruining one another\u2019s careers, are explained below:\n<\/p>\n \u201cFAMILY MATTERS\u201d arrives as a seven-minute music video, which is made up of several songs mixed consecutively. The video opens with a spinning diamond-encrusted necklace and medallion and a figure throwing the finger. As that image hits the screen, Drake raps admit he\u2019s \u201cemptied the clip\u201d for less, and that because Drake\u2019s seed was mentioned, the father is now involved. Then, a Dodge Caravan\u2014similar to that on Kendrick Lamar\u2019s deluxe edition of good kid, m.a.a.d city<\/em> album<\/a>, is taken to be smashed at a scrap yard. Sections of the song also address Drake\u2019s other collaborators-turned-nemeses, including Rick Ross<\/a>, The Weeknd, Future, and Metro Boomin. Drake also seemingly adds A$AP Rocky to his growing name of opps\u2014adding a second \u201cF__kin\u2019 Problems\u201d<\/a> collaborator to the mix.\n<\/p>\n Explaining Kendrick Lamar\u2019s Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers<\/em> Albums<\/a>\n<\/p>\n The video dedicates much of its vitriol to Kendrick. Drake spats at Lamar\u2019s suggestion he stop using the N-word.

The OVO leader also alleges that Kendrick favors white women, and charges that some of the infidelity alluded to on 2022\u2019s Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers <\/em><\/a>was with a white female.\u00a0 \u201cYou say you hate the girls I f__k but what ya really mean? \/ <\/span>I been with Black and white and everything that\u2019s in between \/ <\/span>You the Black messiah wifing up a mixed queen \/ <\/span>And hit vanilla cream to help out with your self-esteem \/ <\/span>On some Bobby s__t I wanna know what Whitney need \/ <\/span>All that puppy love was over in your late teens \/ <\/em>Why you never hold your son and say cheese? \/ We coulda left the kids outta this, don\u2019t blame me.<\/em>\u201c<\/span>\n<\/p>\n
