Kendrick Lamar Fires Shots at Drake and OVO: The History Behind the Beef

Kendrick Lamar has reignited his feud with Drake and OVO with his latest track, “euphoria,” where he takes shots at the Canadian rapper and references his history with Diddy. The diss track includes a line where Lamar mentions bringing back Puff Daddy and questions if Drake’s enforcer, Chubbs, will really do something.

The history between Drake and Diddy goes back to a physical altercation in December 2014 at DJ Khaled’s birthday party in Miami. Diddy allegedly punched Drake, causing the Toronto star to be hospitalized with an injured shoulder. J. Prince, a mutual acquaintance, had to intervene and address the situation, warning that actions have consequences.

In a recent podcast appearance, Kanye West revealed that Jay-Z had to break up a fight between Drake and Diddy at Ye’s 2015 Yeezy fashion show in NYC. The tension between the two hip-hop moguls has been ongoing, with Drake and Diddy both denying any ill will towards each other publicly.

The beef between Drake and Diddy also involves a dispute over the beat for the hit song “0 to 100.” Boi-1da, the producer behind the track, reportedly sent the beat to both artists, with Drake releasing his version first. The beat was initially offered to Diddy, but he passed on it, leading to the controversy.

With “euphoria,” Kendrick Lamar has once again stirred the pot in the ongoing feud between Drake and Diddy, adding fuel to the fire with his provocative lyrics. The hip-hop world is buzzing with anticipation for how Drake and OVO will respond to Lamar’s latest diss track.
