Kendrick Lamar is not letting up on his feud with Drake. After dropping an explosive response earlier in the week, the Compton native has returned with yet another diss track aimed squarely at the Toronto rapper.
On Friday morning, May 3, Kendrick took to social media to unveil his latest offering, “6:16 in L.A.” The track wastes no time in getting to the heart of the matter, with Lamar accusing someone of dishonesty right from the start. As the song progresses, Kendrick sets his sights on Drake’s actions following their initial confrontation on “Like That.”
Lamar doesn’t pull any punches, calling out Drake’s close friend and streamer Akademiks, suggesting he appears compromised. He also takes aim at Drake for involving his manager Anthony Saleh in the feud after Saleh’s photos were shared on Drake’s Instagram Stories.
But Kendrick doesn’t stop there. He goes on to accuse Drake’s OVO team of operating behind his back, insinuating that individuals within Drake’s camp are working against him. Kendrick alleges that Drake conspired with another friend, Zack Bia, to utilize Twitter bots in a bid to undermine him.
In one of the cutting lines of the track, Kendrick raps, “You playin’ dirty with propaganda, it blow up on ya. You’re playin’ dirty with Zack Bia and Twitter bots. But your reality can’t hide behind Wi-Fi.”
Produced by Sounwave and Jack Antonoff, known for his work with Taylor Swift, “6:16 in L.A.” features samples of Al Green and Teddy Pendergrass. The title itself holds significance, referencing the late 2Pac’s birthday and Canadian Father’s Day, both falling on June 16. This choice could be seen as a direct response to Drake’s recent use of an AI version of ‘Pac and Snoop Dogg in his “Taylor Made Freestyle.”
Kendrick’s latest salvo comes hot on the heels of his initial response to Drake, in which he pulled no punches in tearing apart Drake’s earlier shots at him on “Push Ups.”
The ongoing feud between Kendrick Lamar and Drake shows no signs of cooling down anytime soon. Listen to Kendrick’s “6:16 in L.A.” below to hear the latest chapter in this heated rivalry.
