Kanye West has entered the fray of the ongoing feud between rap’s biggest names.
The 46-year-old Grammy winner took aim at Drake and J. Cole on his remix of Future, Metro Boomin and Kendrick Lamar’s diss track Like That, which he debuted during his appearance on Justin LaBoy’s The Download on Saturday.
Kendrick’s shots at Drake and J Cole on the original Like That kickstarted the current beef, prompting Drake to recently retaliate with his diss track Push Ups.
Kanye’s remix verse makes a bold statement of solidarity with Kendrick Lamar, referring to him by his former stage name “K-Dot” and affirming his support with the line “Yo Dot, I got you.” This suggests a unity or alliance between the two artists.
However, Kanye also uses the opportunity to take shots at other prominent rappers, namely Drake and J. Cole. He dismisses Drake by claiming he can’t even recall a memorable Drake lyric, implying a lack of substance in his music. Similarly, he criticizes J. Cole by suggesting that listening to his music has a negative effect, metaphorically saying it “dries up” the listener’s enthusiasm or interest. These lyrics reflect Kanye’s ongoing rivalry and conflicts with fellow hip-hop artists.

On his new remix, Kanye plainly states that he is on Kendrick’s side by rapping, ‘Yo Dot, I got you,’ referencing Kendrick’s former alias K-Dot
Shortly after the remix drop, Kanye doubled down and took to Twitter to post an NSFW meme depicting a woman pleasuring a man after learning he doesn’t listen to J Cole’s music.
On the remix, Kanye also appears to reference the current x trafficking investigation surrounding Diddy, who created the fashion line Sean John.
In Kanye’s verse, he delivers provocative lines, asserting his confidence and braggadocio with lines like “Can’t stop, won’t stop / I just f***** your b**** in a Sean John tank top.” This lyric carries both a boastful tone and a hint of defiance.
Meanwhile, Drake’s freestyle references Taylor Swift’s new album, “The Tortured Poets Department.” He implies a sense of impatience or frustration, suggesting that waiting for Swift’s album release delays his own plans. Drake also acknowledges Swift’s influence and success in the music industry, playfully dubbing her the “biggest gangster in the music game right now.” This acknowledgment reflects Drake’s respect for Swift’s impact on the music industry and her ability to command attention with her releases.
Kanye ends his verse by dragging Drake and J Cole with the lyrics: ‘Y’all so out of sight, out of mind / I can’t even think of a Drake line/ Play J. Cole, get the p**** dry’; Drake in 2016

The ongoing rap feud intensified as Drake responded to Kendrick Lamar’s previous criticism with his diss track, “Push Up.” In the song, Drake takes aim at Kendrick’s physical appearance and suggests that his collaborations with pop artists have softened his edge.
One notable line from the alleged Drake verse targets Maroon 5, implying that they need a clever version of a song, followed by a reference to Taylor Swift’s fanbase, the Swifties.
Additionally, The Weeknd, who also criticized Drake on a previous track, is mentioned in Drake’s lyrics, with Drake suggesting that The Weeknd’s actions for women are similar to what Drake does for men.
The authenticity of the diss track, “Drop and Give Me 50,” sparked debate among fans, with some questioning whether it was truly Drake or possibly generated by artificial intelligence. This uncertainty led to discussions about Drake’s musical credibility and strategy, with some fans speculating that Drake might claim the diss track if it’s well-received but disown it if not.

A new song attributed to the Canadian rapper called Drop and Give Me 50 leaked on Saturday, with such scathing lyrics against artists like Kendrick Lamar, 36, The Weeknd, 34, and more that fans questioned if it was created by artificial intelligence; Kednrick (L) in 2022, Weeknd (R) in 2023
Drake has been silent on whether he’s behind Drop and Give Me 50, although he did post a photo to his IG about people getting close to a reaction.
The photo, however, was shared before the song dropped.
The Weeknd’s response to the track was a playful image of himself enjoying popcorn, seemingly indicating his amusement at the ongoing drama.
The controversy surrounding the diss track has reignited concerns about the use of artificial intelligence to mimic Drake’s voice and artistic style. This issue came into focus earlier when an AI-generated Drake song was disqualified from Grammy consideration, highlighting the widespread use of AI technology in the music industry.
The recent drama traces back to March when Kendrick Lamar dissed Drake and J. Cole on the track “Like That” from Future and Metro Boomin’s album “We Don’t Trust You.”

Fans were quick to flood social media with comments regarding the credibility of Drop and Give Me 50
Kendrick Lamar fired back with multiple lyrical shots aimed at both Drake and J. Cole, delivering a standout line: “Motherf**k the big three, n***a, it’s just big me.”
This line was interpreted as a direct response to a bar dropped by J. Cole in their collaboration with Drake titled “First Person Shooter.”
J. Cole rapped, “Love when they argue the hardest MC / Is it K. Dot [Kendrick]? Is it Aubrey [Drake]? Or me? / We the big three, like we started a league.”
Not stopping there, Lamar cleverly referenced Drake’s latest album title, “For all the Dogs,” with the line, “Fore all your dogs gettin’ buried / That’s a K with all these nines, he gon’ see Pet Sematary. Woof!”
Following the Compton rapper’s tirade towards his two peers, J Cole released a response track titled Seven Minute Drill.
During the song, he slammed Kendrick as attention seeking, stating the Poetic Justice rapper had fallen off ‘like The Simpsons’.
Branding Lamar’s most recent album Mr Morale and the Big Steppers ‘tragic’, Cole warned his peer to lay off the insults.
It was two days later that the Apparently rapper came forward to apologize for his diss, branding it the “lamest” and “goofiest” song he has ever made.
Praising the Good Kid, M.A.A.D City artist’s catalog, Cole asked for forgiveness when he took the stage at Dreamville Festival in North Carolina.
“I ain’t gonna lie to y’all the past two days felt terrible,” he told the crowd.
Although Metro has recently dispelled rumors regarding tensions between the two, fans have taken to social media to share their hilarious shock reactions to J. Cole being featured on the duo’s new song due to his friendship with Drake.
One fan quipped by photoshopping Drake’s face onto a disgruntled Thanos’ body, “Drake after seeing that J. Cole is on the Metro and Future album.”
An image of a confused man in front of a complicated electrical cabinet was captioned:
Fans have been sharing hilarious memes in response to the surprise collaboration between J Cole, Future and Metro Boomin with many confused by his latest move as he was previously friendly with Drake
“Drake tryna figure out how he gonna diss Future, Metro Boomin, Kendrick Lamar, J. Cole, and ASAP Rocky.”
Another meme imagined Drake’s shock at the collaboration, captioning a snap of a woman suddenly falling with: “Drake after finding out J. Cole flipped on him.”
One fan took a swipe at the Canadian musician and his fans’ confusion over Cole’s most recent release. Alongside an image of a confused man, they wrote: “Drake fans waking up and hearing J. Cole on We Still Can’t Trust You.”
Lyrics to Drake’s Push Ups
[Intro]
Whoo Kid
[Verse 1: Drake]
Ayy I could never be nobody number-one fan
Your first number one, I had to put it in your hand
You p***ies can’t get booked outside America for nan’
I’m out in Tokyo because I’m big in Japan
I’m the hit maker y’all depend on
Backstage, in my city, it was friend zone
You won’t ever take no chain off of us
How the f**k you big steppin’ with a size seven men’s on?
This the bark with the bite, n****, what’s up?
I know my picture on the wall when y’all cook up
Extortion, baby, whole career you been shook up
‘Cause Top told you drop and give me fifty like some push-ups, huh
Your last one bricked, you really not on s**t
They make excuses for you ’cause they hate to see me lit
Pull your contract ’cause we gotta see the split
The way you doin’ splits, b***h, your pants might rip
You better do that mother*****n’ show inside the bity
Maroon 5 need a verse, you better make it witty
Then we need a verse for the Swifties
Top say drop, you better drop and give ’em fifty
Pipsqueak, pipe down You ain’t in no big three, SZA got you wiped down
Travis got you wiped down, Savage got you wiped down
Like your label, boy, you in the scope right now
And you gon’ feel the aftermath of what I write down
I’m at the top of the mountain, so you tight now
Just to have this talk with your a**, I had to hike down
Big difference ‘tween Mike then and Mike now
What the f**k is this, a twenty-v-one, n****?

Spend it like you tryna f**k, boy, you trippin’, boy, you trippin’
Drizzy Chip n’ Dale, probably got your b***h Chanel
I just got ’em done, boy, don’t make me have to chip a nail
Rolling Loud stage, y’all weren’t turnt, that was slick as hell
S**t’ll probably change of your BM start to kiss and tell
Hugs and kisses, man, don’t tell me ’bout no switches
I’ll be rockin’ every f***in’ chain I own next visit, ayy

[Chorus: Drake]
Ayy, better drop and give me fifty, ayy
Drop and give me fifty, drop and give me fifty, ayy
N***** really got me out here talkin’ like I’m 50, ayy
N***** really got me out here rappin’ what I’m livin’
[Verse 2: Drake]
I might take your latest girl and cuff her like I’m Ricky
Can’t believe he jumpin’ in, this n**** turnin’ fifty
Every song that made it on the chart, he got from Drizzy
Spend that lil’ check you got and stay up out my business
N****, shout out to the hooper that be bustin’ out the griddy
We know why you mad, n****, I ain’t even trippin’
All that lil’ heartbroken Twitter s**t for b****es
This is for all the top dogs, drop and give me fifty, drop, drop
And that f***in’ song y’all got did not start the beef with us
This s**t been brewin’ in a pot, now I’m heatin’ up
I don’t care what Cole think, that Dot s**t was weak as f**k
Champagne trippin’ he is not f***in’ easin’ up
N***a callin’ Top to see if Top wanna peace it up
“Top, wanna peace it up? Top, wanna peace it up?”
Nah, p***y, now you on your own when you speakin’ up
You done rolled deep to this, it’s not f***kin’ deep enough
