Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef: What's the latest?

Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef: What's the latest?

Yahoo10-02-2025

Kendrick Lamar's show-stopping performance at Super Bowl on Sunday was, for many, a victory lap following his knock-out blow in a long-running beef with fellow rapper Drake.
The Compton star's entire half-time set seemed to swiftly build to a performance of Not Like Us, his Grammy-winning takedown of Drake which was one of last year's biggest hits... but is also now the subject of a potential libel case brought by the Canadian.
Drake was performing in Australia on Sunday, dishing out cash to several of his fans at a Melbourne show, before the whole world tuned in to watch his rival.
The origins of the argument go back more than decade. But here's a quick reminder of where we are now and how we got here over a heated 12 months:
In March last year, producer and former Drake collaborator Metro Boomin' and rapper Future released a collaborative album called We Don't Trust You.
Hidden in the tracklisting was a song called Like That with an uncredited verse by Kendrick Lamar... and it was explosive.
In it, Lamar took aim at rapper J Cole's previous claim - that himself, Kendrick and Drake were "the big three" - proclaiming: "big three - it's just big me".
After years of tension, the fuse had been lit.
Soon after, Drake appeared to address Kendrick's verse at a concert in Florida.
He told the crowd: "I know that no matter what, it's not a [person] on this earth that could ever [expletive] with me in my life!"
Two weeks later, J Cole offered his own reply to Kendrick's verse, on a track called 7 Minute Drill, but he soon realised it had been a huge "mis-step".
Speaking on stage at the Dreamville Festival in North Carolina, he apologised for the song, praised Lamar's back catalogue and asked for forgiveness.
Drake then released a song called Push Ups (Drop and Give Me 50), in which he took aim at Lamar's height, calling him a midget (he's 5ft 4in tall) and a record label puppet who's forced to collaborate with pop artists.
"Maroon 5 need a verse, you better make it witty / Then we need a verse for the Swifties," he cajoled.
He also took issue with Lamar's position in the hip-hop hierarchy, suggesting other artists had overtaken him.
More rappers, including Kanye West and Rick Ross got drawn into the feud. But Drake's attention was solely focused on Lamar.
The Toronto star goaded his US adversary by dropping yet another diss track called Taylor Made Freestyle, which suggested Lamar was too cowardly to release music in the same week as Taylor Swift's The Tortured Poets Department.
What's more he used artificial intelligence to deliver the insults in the voices of Lamar's heroes, Tupac Shakur and Snoop Dogg.

Lamar finally responded with a full-blown, six-minute riposte on record.
Titled Euphoria (a reference to the HBO show where Drake serves as an executive producer), it saw him brand Drake as "predictable", a "master manipulator" and a "habitual liar", while calling his sparring partner's parenting skills into question.
"Let me say I'm the biggest hater," he rapped. "I hate the way that you walk, the way that you talk, I hate the way that you dress."
Less than 72 hours later, he followed up with a second song called 6:16 in LA.
In it, he claimed that someone inside Drake's organisation was leaking damaging information.
"You must be a terrible person/ Everyone inside your team is whispering that you deserve it."
In May, Drake shot back with a song called Family Matters, which took the feud to new heights.
On the track, he speculated that Lamar might be a perpetrator of domestic abuse (the star has never faced such an allegation).
Within 20 minutes, Lamar retaliated with a third diss track, Meet The Grahams, which opened with the ominous warning: "You [messed] up the minute you called out my family's name".
Each verse was addressed to one of Drake's closest family members, listing the rapper's supposed failures.
Among the claims, he said Drake had secretly fathered second child, and was addicted to gambling, sex and drugs.
Drake responded on Instagram by asking whoever had his "hidden daughter" to hand her back, adding that Lamar's claims were a "shambles".
But the Californian wasn't finished and he dropped a fourth diss track, Not Like Us, in which he accused Drake of having relationships with underage women.
"Say, Drake, I hear you like 'em young / Tryna strike a chord and it's probably A minor," he rapped.
Drake hit back a day later, angrily denying the accusations and daring Lamar to reveal proof.
"Drake is not a name that you gonn' see on no sex offender list, easy does it / You mentioning A minor … B sharp and tell the fans: Who was it?"
Lamar's pop-orientated Not Like Us became a big summer club hit - picking up 21 million streams in its first three days of release.
It went on to earn one billion streams on Spotify and later five Grammy Awards, at last month's ceremony, including song of the year.
Things took a darker turn, when a security guard outside Drake's house was shot although there is no proof it was connected to the rappers' feud. However, the vandalism of Drake's OVO shop in London apparently was.
At one star-studded gig in Los Angeles in June, which was intended as a show of unity for the West Coast rap fraternity, Lamar played his biggest diss track five times.
Fast forward to January this year, and Drake decided to sue the Universal Music Group (UMG) for defamation and harassment, over its release of Not Like Us.
In papers filed in New York, Drake's lawyers accused the record label of launching "a campaign to create a viral hit" out of a song that made the "false factual allegation that Drake is a criminal paedophile, and to suggest that the public should resort to vigilante justice in response".
In response, Universal, which has been Drake's label for more than a decade said his claims were not only untrue but "illogical".
It also accused the star of trying to "silence" Lamar, who shares the same label, by taking their rap battle to the courts.
"Throughout his career, Drake has intentionally and successfully used UMG to distribute his music and poetry to engage in conventionally outrageous back-and-forth 'rap battles' to express his feelings about other artists," the label said.
"He now seeks to weaponise the legal process to silence an artist's creative expression and to seek damages from [Universal] for distributing that artist's music."
Which brings us to the Super Bowl. A couple of minutes into his half-time show, Lamar said: "I want to play their favourite song... but you know they love to sue."
In the build-up to the big event, there had been questions over whether he would, or even could play it, legally-speaking.
Lamar leaned into the dilemma, teasing the song during his set, before finally giving the audience what they wanted.
When the song finally played, Kendrick self-censored the most contentious lyric. But he looked directly into the camera with a mischievous grin as he called out Drake's name; and left intact the song's notorious double-entendre: "Tryin' to strike a chord and it's probably A minor."
That lyric echoed around the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans, indicating that no amount of legal action could ever hope to diminish the song's popularity.
In playing it, Lamar was expected to have reached more than 120 million TV viewers who had tuned in to see the game, as well as the likes of Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Taylor Swift, Sir Paul McCartney and Stormzy who were inside the stadium.
The performance was further heightened by the surprise appearance of tennis star Serena Williams, reportedly an old flame of Drake's.
Williams, a Compton kid like Kendrick, performed the Crip Walk - a notorious Los Angeles dance move - as the headliner prowled the stage.
In a review of the gig, the Guardian said the Pulitzer prize-winning rapper "delivered the final blow to his diss track nemesis".
While over in the US, Variety noted how Lamar had quite literally declared "game over" in the battle.
On Monday, Lamar announced a joint UK and Europe stadium tour with SZA, who joined him on-stage on Sunday night, which will take in Glasgow, Birmingham, London and Cardiff from July this year. Drake does not currently have any UK tour dates scheduled for 2025.

Sabrina Carpenter sparks controversy with provocative 'Man's Best Friend' album cover

Sabrina Carpenter's next musical era doesn't have everyone wagging their tail. Following the release of her latest single "Manchild," the Grammy-winning pop princess revealed the title and release date for her new album, "Man's Best Friend," on her social media pages June 11. "My new album, 'Man's Best Friend' 🐾 is out on August 29, 2025," Carpenter, 26, wrote. "I can't wait for it to be yours x" The post also included an image of what appears to be the album's cover. The photo shows Carpenter, dressed in a black dress and high heels, kneeling on the ground in a dog-like pose while an unidentified individual stands off to the side and pulls her by the hair. "Man's Best Friend," Carpenter's seventh studio effort, follows the release of her breakthrough 2024 album "Short n' Sweet." The album, which peaked at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 chart, spawned the hit singles "Espresso," "Please Please Please," "Taste" and "Bed Chem," as well as solidified the singer's playful pin-up girl image. Carpenter first teased "Man's Best Friend" with the release of "Manchild" on June 5. The music video for the synth-pop track drew buzz on social media for Carpenter's bold look, which consisted of a white button-up, baby blue heels and denim "micro" shorts.10 bingeable memoirs to check out: Celebrities tell all about aging, marriage and Beyoncé Carpenter's album cover for "Man's Best Friend" set the comments section ablaze, with fans online chiming in with their hot takes on the provocative image. "Love (you) Sabrina but in this political climate with Trump as president and women's control over their bodies being taken away in the US… this is kind (of) insensitive," Instagram user @taylorrram wrote. "This just set us back about 5 decades," @uhhhlexa_ wrote, while user @mgracegunderson weighed in, "Excited for new music but this cover is a big no from me, dawg. In this political climate?? Girls, get up!" However, other fans welcomed Carpenter's daring imagery along with the announcement of new music. "SUMMER OF SABRINA FOR A SECOND YEAR IN A ROW," Instagram user @aislinndalston exclaimed. Sabrina Carpenter teases 'Manchild' in 'micro' shorts, fans are in awe "Sabrina is coming for album of the year, artist of the year, pop vocal album, all of it and I'm here for it 😍," @erik_osterberg wrote. Responding to some of the criticism aimed at Carpenter, X user @wickednewshub offered a more analytical view of the album artwork. "For those of you who may lack critical thinking skills, the cover is clearly satirical with a deeper meaning, portraying how the public views her, believing she is just for the male gaze," the user wrote. Carpenter channels sexual desire unapologetically in nearly every song from her most recent album "Short n' Sweet." On "Juno," a cheeky track about wanting to become pregnant because of how much she adores her partner, she croons: "Wanna try out some freaky positions?" The singer's tour performance of "Juno," in which she flaunted a sequined mini skirt and pantomimed a sex position while singing the line "Have you ever tried this one?," sparked fierce debate among fans, with some defending Carpenter's saucy performance style and others criticizing it as "male-focused." This debate actually focuses on a "false dichotomy," Leora Tanenbaum, author of "Sexy Selfie Nation: Standing Up For Yourself in Today's Toxic, Sexist Culture," previously told USA TODAY. "(People) ask if she's trying to appeal to the 'male gaze' — appearing hot to cater to hetero men's sexual desires — or to the 'female gaze' — looking sexy on her own terms to make a point about women's confidence and sex-positivity." Sabrina Carpenter, hookup culture and why the way we talk about sex is changing In a changing cultural landscape, in which views on female sexual agency are being reevaluated, women like Carpenter are often scrutinized for their overt sexuality. "Carpenter's lyrics are sexually explicit and may not be appropriate for the Disney audience of children she used to cater to, but her sexual frankness is shocking in this day and age only if you believe that women who are open about sexuality are sluts," Tanenbaum said.

The D'Amore Drop: How Naomi — aka Trinity — told me she was leaving TNA for WWE

The D'Amore Drop is a weekly guest column on Uncrowned written by Scott D'Amore, the Canadian professional wrestling promoter, executive producer, trainer and former wrestler best known for his long-standing role with TNA/IMPACT Wrestling, where he served as head of creative. D'Amore is the current owner of leading Canadian promotion Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling. WWE's Money In The Bank from Los Angeles this past Saturday was another action-packed WWE premium live event (PLE), with the right results to continue WWE's major storylines through the summer. Advertisement As we noted last week, Seth Rollins winning the Money In The Bank briefcase was absolutely the right call. Like with the main villain in a television show or the first act of a superhero movie, WWE continues to build up Seth Rollins' power. At WrestleMania 41, he turned full heel with Paul Heyman, then he added Bron Breakker, and then Bronson Reed to create the most formidable faction since the Bloodline's heyday. And now he has the power to get a WWE title shot anytime, anywhere, on no notice. I'm enjoying the fact that WWE is building Seth's power base slowly, with another boost every few weeks that is then allowed time to settle in the minds of the fans. Advertisement I don't think Rollins' group (they need an official name!) is done with the power grab yet. I think we are going to see them look absolutely unbeatable … and then a hero will emerge to take them on. In this past weekend's main event, Cody Rhodes got his revenge win over John Cena from WrestleMania 41, pinning the WWE Champion in a fun tag match that also featured Jey Uso and Logan Paul. I think that may create a temporary pause to the Rhodes vs. Cena storyline moving forward. Cena is now getting into it with CM Punk, leading into a fan-demanded match at WWE Night of Champions on June 28 in Saudi Arabia. Seth Rollins also sent a message to both that he'll be ready to pounce on the winner if the opportunity presents itself. Advertisement I expect WWE to circle back to Cena vs. Rhodes in a big way in late summer. The women's Money In The Bank match was every bit as exciting as the men's, with Naomi emerging from a thrilling ladder match also featuring Stephanie Vaquer, Roxanne Perez, Giulia, Rhea Ripley and Alexa Bliss. All of them had terrific moments, and it is great to see younger talents like Vaquer and Perez get presented as the megastars they will soon be. But, of course, I have an affinity for Naomi … or rather Trinity, which is her real name and what she was known as during her incredible run in TNA from 2023-24. Trinity was a massive get for TNA. The transition from the WWE can be tough when it's all you've ever known, but once she committed, she was phenomenal. Trinity had no ego, brought no drama — just had a team-first attitude. Advertisement She was a huge boost to the entire locker room, not just the Knockouts division. Everyone knew she'd probably return to WWE eventually, and we were cool with that. The goal was always to showcase her as a featured star and help her continue growing. Naomi makes her way to the ring during WWE Money in the Bank 2025. (Michael Marques/WWE via Getty Images) (WWE via Getty Images) She delivered at every major milestone — from Slammiversary to Bound for Glory, then into the TNA rebrand at Hard to Kill in January 2024. She signed to go back to WWE, and told me in December 2023. She had every right to say, 'Hey, I need to drop the belt quickly and I can't lose twice to Jordynne Grace during Hard to Kill weekend.' I actually offered her an out — to drop the title and then not do the rematch on television just days later. But she insisted on doing the right thing, passing the torch to Jordynne and giving the TNA Knockouts Title full respect. Advertisement When she sat me down and told me she was going back to WWE, she did it in person and was gracious enough to tell me what her time in TNA had meant to her. That gave me the chance to tell her exactly what she had done for TNA in return. Some tears were shed, so yeah, if I am thrilled that Trinity won Money In The Bank and will be in a WWE title program, don't blame me. I hate to do two columns in a row saying the same thing — especially this particular thing — but Logan Paul continues to impress. He didn't look at all out of place in a match that featured Cena, Rhodes and Uso. He's playing a character that is very much himself out there, and it really works. I popped when Paul and Cena got into it, teammates arguing in the ring during the match. Advertisement 'I am Logan Paul!' seems exactly like the sort of thing Logan would yell during a real-life argument, too. Jey Uso is one of the most over performers WWE has had in a decade. His entrance is the hottest in the business. He had a great match on "WWE Raw" dropping the World Heavyweight Championship to Gunther. Jey's first WWE World Title reign was a short one — April to June — but it won't be his last. Which brings me to the big surprise at Money In The Bank — the return of Ron Killings just days after he announced he was not getting renewed by WWE after 17 years with the promotion. I exchanged texts with Ronnie shortly before the show. No, he didn't mention that he was going back to WWE — he's a pro and he also knows that I hate spoilers. (Why would anyone WANT to know spoilers? Wrestling is at its best when there are surprises.) Advertisement Obviously I wanted to check if there was a chance that he could be legally cleared to appear at Maple Leaf Pro'ss next big pay-per-view on July 5, but mainly we had a great talk about the outpouring of love from not just fans, but also Ronnie's peers when news broke that he was done with WWE. I experienced something similar when I was let go from TNA in February 2024. Like I said to Ronnie, it is like attending your own funeral, and by that I mean you get to hear the things people usually only say when it's too late. I don't know for a fact if Ronnie asked WWE to be known as 'Ron Killings' — his real name — as part of this new deal, but it is very smart. Because it is his legal name, he can use it for future projects, television shows, other wrestling gigs, signings, whatever. 'R-Truth' is WWE IP. No two performers age the same and, even aged 53, Ron has something left in the tank. He has a real top-tier run left in him — in fact, he's got a few. Advertisement Let's enjoy what he does next — because it almost didn't happen. Another talent who handles things the right way is Shotzi Blackheart. WWE signed her just after she agreed to work with us in TNA in 2019, but she honored the dates. Six years later, she's a free agent — and you better believe I made sure Maple Leaf Pro booked her for our July 5 pay-per-view. AAA's Worlds Collide event was the dawn of the new WWE-ownership era for the lucha promotion. It was an impressive start: The show looked great on YouTube and there was a red-hot crowd at the Kia Forum despite the early bell time (so as not to go head-to-head with Money In The Bank across L.A.). Advertisement Lucha is a unique style of wrestling, different and distinct from the North American style. I understand some fans' fears TKO will turn it into 'WWE Mexico,' but there was no evidence of that at Worlds Collide. Next week is huge for Mexican wrestling. On June 15, WWE presents AAA's Triplemanía Regia III supercard from Arena Monterrey, and then three days later at Arena Mexico in Mexico City, the CMLL promotion teams up with AEW to present a very special Grand Slam Mexico edition of "AEW Dynamite." Of course, the CMLL/AEW event was announced first — and I'm sure it's no coincidence AAA and WWE decided to run a few days before.

Q&A: Sha'Carri Richardson talks 2028 Olympics, boyfriend Christian Coleman

Sha'Carri Richardson is the fastest woman on the planet, but she's willingly slowing down in this current phase of her last several months have been electric for the Texas native. She etched her name into history books at the 2024 Paris Olympics with an emphatic 4x100-meter relay gold medal win alongside Olympians Gabby Thomas, Twanisha Terry and Melissa Jefferson. Richardson also took home a silver medal in the women's 100-meter race. Then, in February, she appeared in Nike's "So Win" Super Bowl commercial, alongside other powerful athletes, including Indiana Fever guard Caitlin Clark and Las Vegas Aces forward A'ja Wilson. Richardson kept going, and months later, she was cruising the 2025 Met Gala carpet. With so much happening on and off the track, it would be easy to assume that the 25-year-old might consider slowing down at some point and privately giving herself grace. However, she says grace isn't quite what she had in mind. Advertisement "I have to give myself patience of actually committing to slowing down and understanding that slowing down is continuing to go forward," Richardson told For The Win while promoting her partnership with Turtles. "I have to give myself a certain level of patience to slow down." For The Win recently chatted with Richardson about the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, boyfriend and fellow Olympic athlete Christian Coleman, and her viral stare down meme from last summer. This interview has been condensed and edited for clarity. What's the hardest part about slowing down when you're not on a track? Olympian Sha'Carri Richardson wearing a crossing guard vest while holding a "slow" sign and a megaphone for Turtles. (Photo courtesy of Turtles) I would say the hardest part about having to slow down is understanding that slowing down does not take away from going forward. I would say that sometimes I feel like speed is equivalent to moving forward, and I don't give that same energy to slowing down, processing ― seeing ― which is still the same equivalent to going forward. What felt different about your 2025 Met Gala appearance versus your first one? NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Sha'Carri Richardson attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by) Well, I would say between the two different experiences of the Met Gala, I felt like this time, me and my team were definitely more involved in getting everything together so I can have a great experience. The invite, the two themes within the different Met Galas, also exuded a different energy as well. I feel like the theme of this year exuded a certain level of black excellence that I truly was proud and honored to be a part of. Advertisement The first one was my first one. I was more nervous than anything, and so I was able to take that first experience and build off of it for the second Met Gala. When you hear the term Black excellence, what does that mean to you? Black excellence is understanding. It's being Black, and showing a level of discipline, a certain level of commitment that is an inspiration ― that is an influence ― to anybody watching, but especially to our fellow black peers, family as well as fans. [It] shows no matter what is going on, to show up to be your full self despite, you know, history, despite adversity, and to be in the room and showing that there is no difference in what it is that we can accomplish. What are the deeper, hidden messages in your iconic nail designs that most people may not pick up on? EUGENE, OREGON - JUNE 22: Sha'Carri Richardson holds her gold medal with nails after competing in the women's 100 meter final on Day Two of the 2024 U.S. Olympic Team Track & Field Trials at Hayward Field on June 22, 2024 in Eugene, Oregon. (Photo by) Honestly, when it comes to my nails, I feel like it's depending on like when you're asking. I definitely do trust my team when it comes to preparing my nails. They understand me. They understand my energy, and not just that. They understand the event itself. So, they design based off of what it is that I exude. Advertisement I'm saying the deeper message is, if anything, no matter what the design is, the relationships and my nails comes from the beautiful women within my family that have always shown me nail art from a young girl, like me being a little girl. So, I would say the deeper messages is a relationship to the women in my family, and also, I trust my team to create art every single time. Are you looking ahead to the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics, or is it too soon to do that? PARIS, FRANCE - AUGUST 03: Sha'Carri Richardson of Team United States competes during the Women's 100m Semi-Final on day eight of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 at Stade de France on August 03, 2024 in Paris, France. (Photo by) No, it's never too soon to look forward to L.A. Olympics. I feel like being a track and field athlete, we don't just show up for the Olympics. We have world championships. We have other meets that happen every other year as well, besides every four years. Advertisement So, right now I'm looking forward to world championships in Tokyo as the reigning world champion in the 100 in September, and as well as from there, definitely building off of that momentum to go to 2028, and continue to represent myself, hard work, my team and of course, my country team USA. What does it mean to you to have USA across your chest while potentially competing stateside? To have the brand Team USA across my chest represents a level of pride ― that I am as a Black woman, knowing that where I come from ― [which] continues to represent a certain level of resilience that my I am my ancestors wildest dreams, and I will continue to, you know, open that door up to anybody that feels like that door has been closed on them. As well as wearing Team USA across my chest, it represents a country that is always gonna show up and show out. Always gonna put their best foot forward. Always is going to know that, "Hey, if you see me, you know that I'm working to be the best. I trained to be the best, and there's not an option but to go out there, and no matter what happens, but to be the best." If you weren't a track and field athlete, what other sport would you be known for? A softball glove with softballs is pictured before Game 1 of the Women's College World Series championship series between the Texas Longhorns at Texas Tech Red Raiders at Devon Park in Oklahoma City, Wednesday, June 4, 2025. Texas won 2-1. I would say I would probably end up being a dancer. I know this sounds very like south field. I wouldn't say basketball cause I'm not tall at all, and I run too fast for the ball that's why I stopped playing. Actually, no, I would probably either be a dancer or play softball. Who is a fellow athlete that deserves more recognition? TOKYO, JAPAN - MAY 18: Christian Coleman of of the United States of America competes in the Men's 100m final during the Seiko Golden Grand Prix at National Stadium on May 18, 2025 in Tokyo, Japan. (Photo by) I would say Christian Coleman. And I would say Christian Coleman, due to the fact that he has shown up and done things that other male U.S. track and field athletes have not been able to do in such a long time. He continues to show up and represent himself, Team USA, Nike. Advertisement As well as his just journey of always persevering and being known as the best ... but not even just the best starter, but also showing a level of commitment to track and field that is missed by a lot of individuals that are quote unquote in the sport right now. What was your reaction to seeing your gold medal win in the 4x100-meter relay at the Paris Olympics become a meme? Honestly, I did not have a reaction to seeing that because I did it. [chuckles] ... When people ask, like, "Where did that come from?" it literally was just an energy that honestly took a life of it's own. Like, no matter what, again going back to whenever I'm on the track, leaving everything on the track. So, I feel like that's what it was. Advertisement My energy just overcame my body. I was still running, but my energy definitely had a much powerful presence and definitely had to just examine, you know, what was going on around because of the fact of, no, nothing physical was going to stop me.
