It’s probably a good thing Drake is taking a vacation.
No less than 30 minutes after Drake dropped his latest Kendrick Lamar diss track, “Family Matters,” the Pulitzer Prize-winning rapper has returned the fire with “Meet the Grahams.”
“Dear Adonis, I’m sorry that that man is your father, let me be honest,” Lamar raps to begin the track, setting the stage for a deeply personal and vicious six-minute offering. Lamar proceeds to calls Drake a “master manipulator,” “with kinks of a nympho fetish,” who is hiding a secret daughter.
“And we gotta raise our daughters knowin’ there’s predators like him lurkin’/ Fuck a rap battle, he should die so all of these women can live with a purpose,” Lamar raps.
Lamar then addresses Drake’s alleged daughter directly: “Dear baby girl, I’m sorry that your father not active inside your world/ He don’t commit to much but his music, yeah, that’s for sure/ He a narcissist, misogynist, livin’ inside his songs/ Try destroy families rather than takin’ care of his own/ Should be teachin’ you time tables or watchin’ Frozen with you/ Or at your eleventh birthday, singin’ poems with you/ Instead, he be in Turks, payin’ for sex and poppin’ Percs/ Examples that you don’t deserve.”
If Lamar’s allegation is true, this would be the second child Drake has kept from the public. The existence of his son, Adonis, was famously revealed by Pusha T in the diss track “The Story of Adidon.”
Adding insult to injury, the cover art for “Meet the Grahams” features an alleged photograph of Drake’s prescription for Ozempic.
With “Meet the Grahams,” Drake and Lamar are even with three diss tracks a piece. Lamar previously dropped “euphoria” and “6:16 in LA,” while Drake put out “Push Ups (Drop & Give Me 50),” “Taylor Made Freestyle,” and “Family Matters.” The latter track, which saw Drake accuse Lamar of spousal abuse, concluded with the Toronto rapper declaring victory and announcing that he was headed off for vacation. Based on Lamar’s latest response, however, it’s hard to imagine that they’ll be coming to a ceasefire anytime soon.
