Pick a side and stay on it.
Kanye… Excuse me, I apologize, Ye appears to have chosen a side in the feud between Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and J. Cole as the mogul shared an Instagram Story on Monday (March 26) promoting his collaborations with Kendrick Lamar, “No More Parties In LA,” from 2016’s Life of Pablo.
Ye and Drake have been feuding for years, while J. Cole’s beef with Ye is less known. Fans speculate Ye’s post of the Kendrick Lamar-featured song indicates an alliance with the Pulitzer Prize-winning artist. Kendrick made the feud between himself, Drake, and J. Cole public over the weekend on the new song “Like That” from Future and Metro Boomin’s new album, We Don’t Trust You.
Ye made an explicit since-deleted post on social media that mentioned Drake a couple of weeks ago following Vultures Vol.1 song, “Carnival,” reaching #1 on Billboard, his first in over a decade. “F*ck Drake,” wrote Ye as he addressed Addidas and others.
During his tour stop in Miami on Sunday, Drake addressed the recent feuds. He tells the crowd, “I got my head up high, my back straight, I’m ten f**king toes down… and I know no matter what there’s not another n**** on this Earth that could ever f*ck with me.”
Others to choose sides in hip hop civil war include Nav, Rick Ross, Travis Scott, and more.
