Dennis Graham has taken to Instagram to take a jab at the hip-hop stars who targeted his rapper son, scoffing at their diss as a stunt to hype up their newly-released music.
- Mar 26, 2024
AceShowbiz - Over the weekend, Future and Metro Boomin released their collaborative album, "WE DON'T TRUST YOU", featuring a song titled "Like That" with a controversial verse from Kendrick Lamar. In his verse, Lamar took aim at both J. Cole and Drake, sparking a flurry of discussion within the rap community.
In response to Lamar's barbs, Drake's father, Dennis Graham, took to Instagram to share his thoughts on rappers targeting his son. In a humorous post, Graham joked about using fabricated beefs to boost his own music's popularity. Many fans expressed their agreement with his sentiments in the comments.
"Yo I am about to drop some new music and I am not sure if it's going to sell" Dennis posted. "but I am going to call some of my homies and get them start a beef with Drake and get them to unfollow him and that's going make my s**t shoot up to number 1, I'm sure this is going to work so let me get some people on board for this and watch what kind of attention this gets!!!!!!!!!!!! I WILL BE NUMBER ONE 1Day!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Drake himself addressed the beef during a concert on his "It's All A Blur Tour." In a speech, he attempted to brush off the controversy, claiming he was taking the high road and avoiding specifics.
"A lot of people ask me how I'm feeling," he said on stage. "I'ma let you know I'm feeling. Listen, the same way I'm feeling is the same way I want you to walk out this building tonight. I got my head held high, my back straight, I'm ten f**king toes down… and I know no matter what there's not another n**ga that could ever f*ck with me on this Earth."
However, many fans felt his response was underwhelming considering the direct nature of Lamar's callout.
It remains to be seen whether Drake and Future will respond to Lamar's diss in song. When asked about the matter, Metro Boomin dismissed the rumors of a brewing feud as speculation.
