Kendrick Lamar Will Allegedly “Leave Drake Alone” On His Next Release

by

Everyone is guessing as to what Kendrick Lamar will do next. Moreover, various sources have claimed that he will drop something very soon, while others allege that these are misleading reports. Either way, it’s more likely than not that, whenever Kendrick does return with new music, he won’t really have much of a reason or desire to rehash anything about his Drake beef. The battle is over, and he can easily stick to his victory for now. What’s more is that fans believe this thanks to a recent tweet from K.Dot’s childhood friend Lil L, also known as Euro Luxxk. “Nah we leaving the Canadian alone everybody just working at this moment so just stay tune[d],” he responded to a fan on Sunday (August 25).

Furthermore, this is especially interesting because of what Drake has to say about all this. His new “100 GIGS” drops referenced his feud with a lot of rappers this year quite often, and he even posted and deleted an Instagram Story that proclaimed he will “win Game 2.” As such, there’s a chance that the 6ix God wants to take Kendrick Lamar down and boast about his success and status despite Kendrick’s attempts to obliterate him. Still, this could also just be a flex to his many haters and rap game opps, not an actual indication that he wants revenge of some sort.

Kendrick Lamar Probably Won’t Go For Drake’s Neck Again

Then again, we won’t really know until it happens, will we? We’re still culturally reflecting on the battle, whether it’s HBCU band tributes to “Not Like Us” or endless Twitter debates and memes that just won’t stop. As such, a lot of Kendrick Lamar and Drake fans wouldn’t want either of them to beat a dead horse.

Meanwhile, that West Coast banger keeps breaking streaming records, and Kendrick Lamar is still ever-present in many fans’ rotation. Many of his die-hards point to these facts as reasons why he probably won’t re-engage in the Drake beef, at least outright. We wouldn’t rule out a celebratory or subliminally general bar or two, and it will be hard to hear Mr. Morale’s boastful rap game lyrics without thinking of his Toronto rival. Regardless of the outcome, we can’t wait to find out.

Tupac’s Sister Claims He Talked About Jada Pinkett Smith All The Time, Too

by

A new biography on one of the greatest rappers to ever touch a mic, Tupac Shakur, is now available. Staci Robinson wrote it, and it even got the approval of the late MC’s mother, Afeni Shakur Davis, before her passing in 2016. However, that’s not the most tantalizing part of this story. Moreover, it’s the revelations held in conversations with ‘Pac’s sister, Sekyiwa “Set” Shakur, who spoke to Robinson for this book and whose statements permeate its chapters. She maintained that he talked about Jada Pinkett Smith just as much as she talks about him, highlighting their strong friendship and bond.

Before getting into that, though, Sekyiwa addressed Tupac’s friendship with John Cole to get into the deeper meat of this angle of the story. “All I remember is John coming over to the house all the time. And nothing else could be talked about but Jada,” she expressed in the biography, according to People. “His music changed. This people changed. And Jada came- the entity! The magazine posters had come off his wall and John’s art went up on his wall. And pictures of Jada.”

Furthermore, Robinson also apparently brought up a poem that Tupac wrote and dedicated to Jada after he moved to California, having met her at their Baltimore high school. “u will never fully understand / How Deeply my Heart Feels 4 u,” the lyrics for the alleged piece “The omega of my Heart” in Robinson’s biography read. “U R my Heart in Human Form / a Friend I could never replace.” Now that the book is out and we don’t have to depend on other sources to learn its contents, you can scrutinize this for yourself much further.

Of course, all this is notable because of how much Jada praises the Death Row legend these days. While they weren’t on speaking terms when he passed away due to his increasingly violent lifestyle in her eyes, she still speaks very fondly of him in ways that go beyond a simple friendship- but not a romantic bond, she maintains. Paired up with the actress’ perceived treatment of Will Smith, and their relationship as a whole, many have dogged on her focus on ‘Pac. But it seems like the dedication was mutual based on these claims, and that it’s understandable why she honors him to this day.
