The rap beef between Kendrick Lamar and Drake is not unknown especially after the diss tracks have been dropped on Spotify and YouTube. The beef has escalated after the rappers have taken digs at each other's families at a personal level. Several tracks have been exchanged since March 2024, with the track Like That by Lamar.
In this track, Lamar dismissed "Big 3" of him, Cole, and Drake, and instead said that it's just him in the scene. This track also became the most heard one on Spotify, among all the other tracks. Eventually, Drizzy came up with diss tracks which prompted K-Dot to respond as well. These tracks have been uploaded on Spotify by the respective artists.
While Like That tops the Spotify list of being the most popular diss track in the feud, Meet the Grahams is at bottom of the list
Among all the nine diss tracks that have been dropped as of now, five have come from K-Dot, while the rest of them were released by Canadian rapper Drake. Drake's Taylor Made Freestyle is, however, unavailable on either Spotify or YouTube, in order to avoid legal prosecution by Tupac's Estate.
