WATCH: Rick Ross Enjoys a Car Ride Listening to Kendrick Lamar’s “Like That” Verse

Rick Ross Welcomes His Neighbors Speaking Against His Car Show: 'I Never Got Nothing Easy'

Rick Ross has definitely picked a side in the beef of Kendrick Lamar and Future against Drake. If you missed it, K Dot fired at Drake and J. Cole on “Like That” from the WE DON’T TRUST YOU album.

Later in the album, Rick Ross also appeared. While he did not directly diss Drake, he did unfollow him on social media, signaling that it’s up on his end as well.

Over the weekend, Drake gave Rick Ross’s ex, Cristina Mackey, a VIP treatment for the It’s All A Blur tour in Sunrise, FL.

As the table turns, Ross lets Kendrick talk for him, playing the “Like That” verse while enjoying a smoke during a ride around town. You can see it below.

Drake’s Dad Reportedly Clapped Back At Kendrick Lamar, Future, And Metro Boomin’s Diss Song ‘Like That’

To borrow a line from Jay-Z, it’s no fun when the family feud. But it is quite interesting to watch when celebrities kinfolk get involved in public disputes.

According to Drake, Metro Boomin and Future’s diss song “Like That” featuring Kendrick Lamar (apparently a longtime foe) didn’t ruffle his feathers. However, the “Rich Baby Daddy” rapper’s father, Dennis Graham, seems far more bothered by the remarks made on wax. To air out his frustration, the Papa Bear reportedly clapped back at the trio and Drake’s former industry friend, who has unfollowed his son online since the track’s release.

On March 25, in a now-deleted post on Instagram, Graham supposedly delivered the heat Drake’s response lacked. “Yo, I am about to drop some new music,” he sarcastically wrote. “And I am not sure if it’s going to sell, but I am going to call some of my homies and get them to start a beef with Drake and get them to unfollow him, and that’s going make my shit shoot up to number 1. I’m sure this is going to work, so let me get some people on board for this and watch what kind of attention this gets!!!!!!!!!!!! I WILL BE NUMBER ONE 1Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!”

Folks online are divided on Graham’s involvement. Some consider it corny. Others declare that all is fair in love and rap beef. But hey: If Beyoncé’s mother, Tina Knowles, can thumb thug it out with trolls when it comes to her superstar daughter, Graham should be granted the same parental grace.

Did Drake Respond To Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Like That’ Diss?

Future and Metro Boomin dropped We Don’t Trust You on Friday, March 22, and rap fans were immediately drenched in beef — or perceived beef — primarily because of “Like That” featuring Kendrick Lamar, who referenced “First Person Shooter” by Drake and J. Cole and downplayed any notion that he’s part of hip-hop’s “Big Three” alongside Drake and Cole.

Did Drake Respond To Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Like That’ Diss?

Drake had two opportunities on stage to address Lamar’s diss. His and Cole’s It’s All A Blur Tour — Big As The What? staged back-to-back concerts on Saturday, March 23, and Sunday, March 24, at Amerant Bank Arena in Sunrise, Florida. Lil Wayne served as the co-headliner for those dates, and the first show only focused on positivity as Drake showered Wayne with praise.

On Sunday, however, Drake had to get something off his chest. Whether it was a direct response to Kendrick (or Future?) is up for interpretation, but this is what Drake said, as circulated on X (formerly Twitter) by Complex:

“A lot of people ask me how I’m feelin’. I’ma let you know how I’m feelin’. Listen, the way I’m feelin’ is the same way I want you to walk out of here feelin’ tonight about your fuckin’ self. ‘Cause you know how I’m feelin’? I’ve got my f*cking head up high. My back straight. I’m ten f*cking toes down in Florida — or anywhere else I go — and I know that, no matter what, there’s not a n***a on this Earth that could ever f*ck with me. And that’s how I want you to talk out of here tonight.”

Will Drake Respond To Kendrick Lamar’s Diss On The ‘It’s All A Blur Tour?’

Drake continuously brags about his loyalty to “all of his dogs” (hence the name of his latest album). However, someone named Kendrick Lamar is ready to clear out the kennel.

Thanks to Lamar’s latest verse on Metro Boomin & Future’s song “Like That” (off of their joint album We Don’t Trust You), a new rap beef is sizzling up fan bases. Now that a few days have passed since Lamar’s fiery bars, fans are expecting a response from Drake any moment now. So, the question is, when is it coming?

Continue below for more speculation.

Will Drake Respond To Kendrick Lamar’s Diss On The ‘It’s All A Blur Tour?’

Both dissed parties, Drake and J. Cole (slighted by association), are currently on the road. Yesterday (March 23), their joint, It’s All A Blur Tour — Big As The What? made a stop at Sunrise, Florida’s Amerant Bank Arena. During the set, attendees expected a response but were deeply disappointed.

Instead of addressing Lamar’s sharp lines, Drake used the stage to show love to his mentor and longtime friend, Lil Wayne. The pair performed “Right Above It” and “She Will.”

Drake was later spotted living in a club in Miami, listening to an audio recording. Fans have speculated that it could be his official response, which they hope drops soon.

Meanwhile, users online have begun spreading a rumor that J. Cole’s official response to Lamar is imminent.

For now, eager hip-hop heads are forced to wait until the next bomb drops from either side.

YNW Melly Tries To Cop Kendrick Lamar Diss, Gets Roasted For Clout-Chasing

YNW Melly has been labeled a clout-chaser after trying to claim Kendrick Lamar dissed him on “Like That”. Melly claimed that the line “I crash out like “f-ck rap” this Melly Mel if I had to” was a random shot at him. Instead, the line was a shot at Melle Mel, who said in a 2023 interview that he felt Lamar had no influence in the modern rap game.

Furthermore, commenters online were ruthless towards the Florida rapper. “This like when Rubi rose thought Drake was talking about her 😂😂😂,” one person teased. “This generation wouldn’t have survived the era of Hit Em Up & No Vaseline 😫. Y’all crying over Kendrick verse. Tell Cole & Drake get in the booth,” lamented another. “Melly Mel is a producer with a long track record of hits and works with Dr Dre. Ain’t nobody care about YNW Melly,” concluded a third.

Elsewhere, Kai Cenat had barely any words as he took in Lamar’s brutal diss of Drake and J. Cole on We Don’t Trust You. Cenat sat in shocked silence during his listening part for the Metro Boomin and Future collab album as Lamar skewered the “First Person Shooter” duo on “Like That”. Cenat’s listening parties have become a regular occurrence. However, this is the first time that the streamer has legitimately been lost for words. However, what did you think of the track? Let us know in the comments.

“F-ck sneak dissin’, first person shooter, I hope they came with three switches. Motherf-ck the big three, n-gga, it’s just big me. And your best work is a light pack/N-gga, Prince outlived Mike Jack’/N-gga, bum, ‘fore all your dogs gettin’ buried/That’s a K with all these nines, he gon’ see Pet Sematary,” Kendrick raps as he dismantles the notion that Drake and Cole are his contemporaries. However, Drake and Cole are both yet to respond to the track.

What Did Kendrick Lamar Say About Drake And J. Cole On Future And Metro Boomin’s New Album?

Future and Metro Boomin have one of the week’s big releases with their new joint album, We Don’t Trust You. Since it was released hours ago, all eyes have been fixed on the song “Like That,” which is notable for Kendrick Lamar’s verse. On the track, the rapper all but directly calls out two other MC contemporaries by name: Drake and J. Cole.

What Did Kendrick Lamar Say About Drake And J. Cole On Future And Metro Boomin’s New Album?

Mid-way through his verse, Lamar raps, “F*ck sneak dissin’, first person shooter, I hope they came with three switches,” an apparent reference to Drake and Cole’s 2023 song “First Person Shooter.” Later, Kendrick says, “Motherf*ck the big three, n****, it’s just big me.” That seems to be another “First Person Shooter” reference, specifically to the Cole line, “Love when they argue the hardest MC / Is it K-Dot? Is it Aubrey? Or me? / We the big three like we started a league, but right now, I feel like Muhammad Ali.”

So far, neither Drake nor Cole have shared any sort of public response to the song.

Listen to “Like That” above.

We Don’t Trust You is out now via Epic Records/Boominati Worldwide/Republic Records. Find more information here.
