The recent escalation in the rivalry between Kendrick Lamar and Drake has been marked by the release of new diss tracks that have taken a more personal turn, involving family members in their lyrics.
This week saw Lamar retaliate to Drake’s earlier songs with his track titled “Euphoria,” where he labels the Toronto-born artist as deceitful.
Drake’s comeback came in the form of “Family Matters,” where he retorts, “You could’ve spared our kids from this drama, don’t pin it on me,” seemingly in response to Lamar’s critique of his parenting in “Euphoria.”

Drake’s latest song hints at doubts over the paternity of one of Lamar’s children.
Lamar didn’t hold back either, with his swift reply in “Meet the Grahams,” referencing Drake’s son Adonis and his parents, Sandra and Dennis Graham, with the lines, “Apologies to Adonis, that your dad’s who he is. To be frank, it demands a real man, and he’s missing the mark.”
The two artists, with Lamar having a Pulitzer Prize-winning fourth album, have a history of subtle exchanges in their music.
However, the recent exchange of direct and personal disses indicates a shift to a more overt and confrontational phase in their feud.
