During a recent interview with Billboard magazine, Drake finally addresses Kendrick Lamar‘s, rhymes on Big Sean‘s “Control” single.
On the track Kendrick spits, “I’m usually homeboys with the same ni**as I’m rhymin’ with/ But this is hip-hop and them ni**as should know what time it is. And then goes Jermaine Cole, Big K.R.I.T, Wale, Pusha T, Meek Mill, A$AP Rocky, Drake, Big Sean, Jay Electron, Tyler, Mac Miller/ I got love for you all, but I’m tryna murder you ni**as/ Tryna make sure your core fans never heard of you ni**as/ They don’t wanna hear not one more noun or verb from you ni**as.”
Of those lyrics Drake tells Billboard magazine, “I didn’t really have anything to say about it. It just sounded like an ambitious thought to me. That’s all it was. I know good and well that Kendrick’s not murdering me, at all, in any platform. So when that day presents itself, I guess we can revisit the topic.”
Well that was a well articulated jab by Drake.
CK readers, do you agree or disagree with the Canadian rapper?
