Drake‘s trolling of Kendrick Lamar doesn’t seem to have an end in sight. On Friday (April 26), the Toronto rap star hopped on Instagram to share a picture of his fit. However, the shirt he was sporting, in particular, caught fans’ attention.
The tee read “Compton Community College,” which happened to be a local institution in Lamar’s hometown of Compton, California. It was also rumored to be the place where Lamar’s wife, Whitney Alford went to school. However, it was later confirmed that this was not true.
Despite Drake never confirming if he was trying to bait Lamar, it wouldn’t be completely wrong to assume that it may be true. Although it’s unclear what caused the tension between the two, as time passes, their ongoing beef continues to fester.
Things seemingly kicked off after the release of Future and Metro Boomin’s “Like That,” which featured a fiery rap from Lamar, where he presumably took multiple shots at Drake.“And your best work is a light pack/ N*gga, Prince outlived Mike Jack’, N*gga, bum,” Lamar rapped. “‘Fore all your dogs gettin’ buried/That’s a K with all these nines, he gon’ see Pet Sematary (Yeah).”
The “Slime You Out” rapper quickly fired back with “Push Ups,” where he not only called out Lamar, but Rick Ross and The Weeknd. “Extortion baby, whole career, you been shook up/’Cause Top told you, ‘Drop and give me fifty,’ like some push-ups, huh,” the rapper said. “Your last one bricked, you really not on sh*t/They make excuses for you ’cause they hate to see me lit.“
He would eventually follow that up with “Taylor Made Freestyle.” However, the track was quickly removed from social media due to threats from Tupac Shakur’s estate, after the rapper used AI-generated voices of Pac and Snoop Dogg.
As of now, Lamar has yet to release his highly-anticipated response.
