There are still plenty of lingering questions about the rap beefs that will dominate the year in 2024: Kendrick Lamar, Drake, and everything in between. We might add that this is understandable, since amid rumors of reconciliation there are still many artists whose dynamics we cannot reliably judge. For example, one question mark is Future’s involvement, as his feud with the 6ix gods doesn’t seem as deep or consequential as other conflicts. In fact, DJ Akademiks recently kicked off the fight by saying on his stream that Pluto didn’t even know K.Dot would do what he did on “Like That.”
“Even when Drake and Future were together, even when they weren’t talking… it was never that deep,” DJ Akademiks said during his stream. “I’ve heard that – supposedly. Now, I don’t know if that’s true. I’m just like, yo, if that’s not true…fuck, I doubt it, and they also said Future claimed he didn’t Knowing that Kendrick would tease Drake for being “like that,” I don’t know if that’s true, I don’t know if that’s true, but that’s what we think or the interpretation. Again, they still haven’t spoken, but that’s the interpretation, Maybe something will finally happen with this, right?
DJ Academics theorize Kendrick Lamar, Drake and Future
Even if the Kendrick Lamar, Drake and Future theory is correct, Feige certainly wouldn’t agree with it all before giving up. Also, what would this look like? Did he react like a content creator when he heard Kendrick spit his “Like That” verse in the studio, or was it something he heard later? Regardless, it’s an interesting thought amid conflicting rumors of reconciliation.
Maybe one day we’ll get solid answers to all this, but don’t expect it anytime soon. Currently, there is only some speculation from fans and hip-hop media figures about what is going on with Kendrick Lamar, Drake, Future, and company.
