The ongoing beef between Kendrick Lamar and Drake has taken a dark turn, with accusations flying back and forth in their diss tracks. However, not everyone is impressed with the way the two rappers have been handling the feud.
Questlove, the renowned drummer of The Roots, took to Instagram to express his disappointment in the way Kendrick and Drake have been conducting themselves. He criticized the mudslinging and personal attacks, stating that the feud was more about tearing each other down than showcasing skill.
Questlove went on to challenge both rappers to step up their game morally, questioning whether the entertainment value of their feud was worth the damage it was causing. His sentiments were echoed by radio host Charlamagne Tha God, who also expressed disapproval of the accusations being thrown around without substantial proof.
Despite the controversy surrounding the beef, many in the Hip Hop community have deemed it as the best rap battle they have witnessed, with Kendrick being declared the winner by some. However, the negative impact of the feud on both artists’ reputations and the personal toll it has taken on their families has raised concerns about the direction of the genre.
As the feud continues to escalate, fans are left wondering whether Kendrick and Drake will heed the calls for a more respectful approach to their rivalry or if they will continue down the path of personal attacks and scandalous allegations.
