The record-breaking diss track that included scathing lyrics, took aim at Drake in a weeks-long rap feud where both the singers fired at each other with diss tracks. Some K. Dot-diss tracks that were released by Drake include Family Matters, The Heart Part 6, and Taylor Made Freestyle.

In K. Dot’s Not Like Us, the 37-year-old Grammy winner crooned-

“Certified Lover Boy? Certified P*dophile.”

Other lyrics included:

“And your homeboy need subpoena, that predator move in flocks/ That name gotta be registered and placed on neighborhood watch.”

Kendrick Lamar is now scheduled to take the Super Bowl LIX halftime show stage on February 9. He had not responded to Ye’s Instagram post at the time of writing this article.
