Drake and Kendrick started out as friends and even collaborated on each other’s albums early in their careers.
Drake (seen in 2019) and Kendrick started out as friends and even collaborated on each other’s albums early in their careers, but things seemed to turn sour in 2013.
It fizzled out until October, when Drake and J. Cole released their song First Person Shooter, in which they referred to themselves and Kendrick as “the big three,” and Kendrick took issue.
The rap rivals even happily toured together in 2012 during Drake’s 65-date Club Paradise Tour, which grossed $42.6 million.
But things seemed to turn sour in 2013, when Kendrick name-dropped Drake in his song Control.
He sang, “I’m usually friends with the same blacks I rhyme with / But this is hip-hop and them blacks should know what time it is / And that goes for Jermaine.” Cole, Big KRIT, Wale, Pusha T, Meek Millz, ASAP Rocky, Drake.
‘Big Sean, Jay Electron’, Tyler, Mac Miller / I love y’all, but I tryna murder you blacks / Tryna make sure your core fans never heard of you blacks / They don’t want to hear a single noun or verb more than you blacks’.
After that, the two subtly teased each other over the years, but the friction seemed to calm down, until it was reignited in October of last year.
Drake and J. Cole released their song First Person Shooter, in which they referred to themselves and Kendrick as “the big three.”
Kendrick apparently took issue with this, which he expressed in an uncredited verse on Metro Boomin and Future’s track Like That, which was released on March 26.
He took multiple lyrical jabs at both Drake and J Cole, furiously rapping: “Damn the big three, black, it’s just me.”
