Drake taunts Kendrick Lamar, teases response diss track

Drake is attempting to extinguish the flames that shot out of Kendrick Lamar’s four-alarm diss track “Euphoria” on April 30.

Drake uploaded a clip from the 1999 comedy 10 Things I Hate About You where Julia Stiles’ character recites a poem about the things she hates about a crush even though she also loves them.

Drake’s post is the response from “Euphoria” where Kendrick raps: “I hate the way that you walk, the way that you talk, I hate the way that you dress / I hate the way that you sneak diss, if I catch flight, it’s gon’ be direct / We hate the b—— you f—, ’cause they confuse themself with real women.”

Drake’s message to Lamar has a foreboding ring to it

Moreover, the Toronto-born emcee used a liaison in DJ Akademiks to relay an ominous message about what’s coming in terms of a response to Lamar’s track.

“I’m energized by the elimination of Drake … See you soon,” Akademiks said Drake told him in a personal text. 

“If you think this is fire, you have no idea what I got coming,” Drake reportedly added. 

Drake will have a lot to respond to as Lamar destroyed him on “Euphoria” on multiple of subjects, including:

• Hanging out with Sexyy Red: “When I see you standing by Sexyy Red I believe you see two bad bitches / I believe you don’t like women, it’s real competition, you might pop ass with ’em.”
• Drake’s past beef with Pusha T: “I don’t like you popping shit at Pharrell, for him I’ll inherit the beef / Yeah fuck all that Pushin’ P, lemme see you Pusha T / You better off spinning again on him ‘fore you think about pushing me / He’s Terrence Thornton, I’m Terence Crawford, yeah I’m whooping feet.”
• For buying a ring that belonged to Tupac Shakur: “Somebody had told me that you got a ring, on God, I’m ready to double the wage / I’d rather do that than let a Canadian n—- make ‘Pac turn in his grave.”

Fans of both rappers — and hip-hop in general — seem pleased that the music genre is trending back to the battle rap days of hip-hop lore.
