Lamar set the ground by opening with the Drake diss track ‘Euphoria’ while also adding a brand new stringing verse in it. Here’s what the rap battle further holds for the two rappers as Lamar has come up with some more disses at his arch-enemy Drake.

The crowd at Kendrick Lamar’s “Pop Out” concert in Los Angeles was electric when the rap sensation opened his show with his famous diss track ‘Euphoria‘. As the crowd sang along with him, he also dropped a surprise by introducing a brand new, sharp verse in the rap.
Lamar’s stinging verse read, “Give me Tupac’s ring back and I might give you a little respect.” The reference fell in line with Drake buying a ring last year that was previously owned by the late Tupac Shakur.

Lamar’s concert was livestreamed by Amazon Music as part of the “Forever the Influence” celebration for Black Music Month. It had several guest appearances from notable artists such as Dr. Dre, Tyler, the Creator, Schoolboy Q, Jay Rock, and Ab-Soul.
The concert “The Pop Out — Ken and Friends’ drew its name from Lamar’s song ‘Not Like Us’, which includes the lyrics, “Sometimes you gotta pop out and show n—s / Certified boogeyman, I’m the one that up the score with ’em.” This track is also a direct diss at Drake and has managed to climb the top of the charts. It is also considered one of the most successful songs in the ongoing feud between the two rappers.

Kendrick Lamar And Drake’s Long Ongoing Feud Has No End In Sight
Kendrick Lamar and Drake have been in a heated rivalry, with both taking jabs at each other’s appearances and making serious accusations against each other. Kendrick Lamar has even gone so far as to accuse Drake of pedophilia and having hidden children.
The feud stemmed from Drake’s track ‘The Heart Part 6′, wherein he mimicked Lamar’s song series and signaled Drake’s weariness of the ongoing conflict. Drake recently alluded to the battle in his verse on Sexyy Red’s ‘U My Everything’, wherein he rapped over Metro Boomin’s diss beat ‘BBL Drizzy’.
The feud’s origins also trace back to Lamar’s feature on Metro Boomin’s song ‘Like That’, a collaboration with Future released in March. As Lamar has now yet again taken his aim, fans eagerly await if it has hit the right spot and the retaliation it would get.
