Hip-hop heavyweights Drake and Kendrick Lamar are sparring in an exchange of diss tracks that has sent music fans into furious debates on social media.During an April 7 headlining set at his own Dreamville Festival, he apologized — a rare move in a rap beef — and praised Lamar, calling 7 Minute Drill a "misstep" and saying he had lost sleep over it.A$AP Rocky brags on Show of Hands about sleeping with a woman fans have speculated is Sophie Brussaux, the mother of Drake's son, Adonis.Ironically, Drake used AI on the song to impersonate the late Tupac Shakur as well as Snoop Dogg — invoking two of Lamar's rap heroes in a seeming effort to goad him into responding.Snoop seemed amused, but Drake took the track down after Shakur's estate hit him with a cease and desist order, calling the use of the legendary rapper's voice an "insult."Morel and Parhar fully expect a response from Drake to Euphoria and 6:16 in LA, and are eagerly anticipating an escalation in the war of words while also hoping the feud stays in the studios.
