Listeners, the Drake and Kendrick Lamar feud has been absolutely relentless this week and the energy online just keeps getting wilder. Let’s start with where things stand right now: Kendrick’s diss tracks, especially “Euphoria” and “Not Like Us,” are still the talk of social media and streaming charts. People are dissecting every lyric, every beat, and arguing over who really took the crown in this battle. “Euphoria” took aim at Drake in a huge way, hitting everything from his music and persona to his biracial identity. That’s got everyone on X and Reddit buzzing, with fans and celebs picking sides, and honestly, the lyrics have taken on a life of their own in meme culture. “Not Like Us” isn’t just a song now—it’s an anthem at parties and even played during NBA playoff highlights, and did you see the TikTok remixes?

But Drake hasn’t been silent either. He’s dropped some cryptic Instagram posts this weekend, one reading, “My first thought when they get to talking out the side of their mouth,” which Complex Music immediately picked up and people think it’s definitely a subliminal at Kendrick. There’s even more gossip after Drake jumped in on the viral Jet2holidays meme—he took a trip to their UK headquarters and posted about it, but the comments section was brutal! People on Reddit and Twitter were roasting him, calling him “corny” and saying Kendrick needs to “handle” Drake for real. Even brands like Jet2holidays and celebrities like Mariah Carey jumped on the trend, but Drake’s involvement just made it go nuclear in British meme culture. It’s giving major “dad joining the kids’ party” vibes and people let him know it.

Back to the music beef, fans are split on who’s on top but even the numbers are wild. Industry sources and Billboard are reporting that Kendrick’s recent diss tracks brought in more than $13 million in less than six months, while Drake’s output is keeping him right in the financial race, so clearly neither of these guys is losing when it comes to attention or the bank. Gossip blogs and podcasts are breaking down every move—the fact that Kendrick addressed not just Drake’s music but also hit him on personal authenticity has sparked a whole conversation about who’s authentic in hip-hop, who’s appropriating, and who’s just good at playing the game.

Let’s not forget, a lot of these diss lines seem to be setting each other up for the next round, with theorists online saying Drake might still have something big up his sleeve, especially with new cryptic mentions about rivals just using his name for promo. It’s the kind of rivalry that’s bigger than music right now—it’s culture wars, personal branding, and internet chaos all wrapped up in two of the biggest names in rap. And while the feud dates back years—the two were even friends and collaborators early on—the public feels every new diss like it’s a championship game.

Listeners, that’s all the hot gossip and latest news about the Drake versus Kendrick Lamar saga!
