Fat Joe shares his perspective on the highly publicized hip-hop beef between Kendrick Lamar and Drake, suggesting that it may have reached its conclusion.
- December 9, 2024
AceShowbiz - Fat Joe recently discussed the ongoing beef between Kendrick Lamar and Drake during an appearance on "Big Boy's Neighborhood". While acknowledging K.Dot's lyrical superiority, Joe believes the battle has tilted in Drake's favor due to Lamar's lack of response. "I don't think Kendrick is cooking up," Joe said. "It don't take three-four weeks to... I think that's over. It don't take three or four weeks."
Joe also praised Drake's "creative" use of A.I. voices on his "Taylor Made Freestyle", which has received mixed reactions. However, he emphasized his neutrality in the conflict, stating, "I got no horse in the game. I wish they would all get along."
Fat Joe's assessment echoes the sentiment among many fans, who have been eagerly awaiting Kendrick Lamar's response to Drake's diss tracks. However, it is important to note that history suggests that swift responses to diss songs are not the norm, as evidenced by Nas' five-month wait before his response to Jay-Z and Fat Joe's three-month delay before releasing "My FoFo" as a reply to 50 Cent.
Despite the lack of a direct response, Fat Joe believes the energy surrounding Kendrick Lamar remains strong, comparing it to the impact of Bone Thugs-N-Harmony in his era. He suggested that even Lamar's lesser-known associates could potentially enjoy commercial success due to their affiliation with him.
