After allowing the hip-hop community to react fervently for a few hours, it appears that Drake has finally addressed the commotion surrounding his leaked diss track. For those not in the loop, various versions of a response track targeting Kendrick Lamar, Future, Metro Boomin, and others surfaced online on Saturday (April 13). While many remain quiet or have subtly responded, Drake remained unfazed until a recent Instagram Story post. It’s straightforward: just a picture of Uma Thurman portraying The Bride in the Kill Bill series, facing off against a group of assassins with only a katana in hand. While Drake could simply be expressing his admiration for Tarantino and the film, the timing suggests otherwise, especially considering a certain “Bill” whose stage name is likely more recognizable.
Rick Ross swiftly released his response track to Drake mere hours after the leak emerged, addressing his biracial identity, alleged surgeries, and purported involvement in legal issues with French Montana. It seems everyone involved in this feud wasted no time in escalating the situation, except perhaps its main instigator.
Kendrick Lamar has remained silent since his explosive “Like That” verse on Future and Metro Boomin’s album earlier in 2024. Fans have eagerly awaited his response track, with Drake even taking jabs at him in his leaked song. With “Round 1” officially concluded (or perhaps awaiting Kendrick’s retort), anticipation for a lyrical showdown is high. The consensus is that Drake’s song was impressive, setting the stage for a compelling exchange.
