Kendrick Lamar and Drake’s label UMG deny requesting they end their feud

Universal Music Group has denied reports that it requested that Kendrick Lamar and Drake end their much-publicised feud.Over the past month, Lamar and Drake have been trading blows over a constant back-and-forth of diss tracks. Earlier this week, Drake dropped his new diss track ‘The Heart Part 6’, on which the Canadian rapper suggested that Lamar’s disses are based on false information fed to him by Drake’s team. He also denied allegations of paedophilia lobbied against him by Kendrick Lamar on ‘Meet The Grahams’.The feud stems from Lamar’s verse on Future and Metro Boomin’s ‘Like That‘ back in March.

Drake has taunted Kendrick Lamar once again on the new track ‘Taylor Made Freestyle’, making use of AI versions of 2Pac and Snoop Dogg.The song was posted on the rapper’s X account today (April 20), the latest in a string of shots back and forth between the two artists.The first verse on the track has been manipulated to sound like 2Pac, with lines including: “Kendrick, we need ya, the West Coast savior / Engraving your name in some hip-hop history / Fuck this Canadian light-skin, Dot / We need a no-debated West Coast victory, man”.Taylor Made Freestyle pic.twitter.com/OrcdsIb8Wf— Drizzy (@Drake) April 20, 2024That is swiftly followed by the AI Snoop, who also goads Kendrick into defending the West Coast legacy: “I know you never been to jail, or wore jumpsuits and shower shoes / Never shot nobody, never stabbed nobody / Never did nothing violent to no one, it’s the homies that empower you / But, still, you gotta show this fucking owl who’s boss on the West / Now’s a time to really make a power move”.On the final verse, Drake’s true voice comes through: “I guess you need another week to figure out how to improve / What the fuck is taking so long, we waitin’ on you / The rest of y’all are definitely involved, y’all gettin’ it too / Soon as you get the courage to drop, I’m out on the loose“.Drizzy also uses the dominance of Taylor Swift’s new album ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ to mock Kendrick: “But now we gotta wait a fucking week ’cause Taylor Swift is your new top / And if you ’bout to drop, she gotta approve”.Drake was continuing to taunt Kendrick yesterday, telling fans that K-Dot “had nothing to drop” in response to Drizzy’s ‘Push Ups’ diss track.The issue began on the 2023 single ‘First Person Shooter’, when
