Drake didn't waste much time unloading the clip as he responded to Kendrick Lamar with the edgy “Family Matters” on Friday night (May 3).
“Family Matters” hit YouTube about 14 hours after K. Dot dropped his “6:16 in LA” diss track. Drizzy picks up where he left off to end “Push Ups” and slams Lamar and his alleged breakup with fiancée Whitney Alford, who he claims is full of infidelity.
“You the Black messiah who make a mixed queen/ And whip vanilla cream to help with your self-esteem/ In some Bobby sh–, I wanna know what Whitney needs,” he whispers.
At one point, Drake claims that one of Kendrick's kids could actually be Dave Free, Lamar's pgLang collaborator.
“Your baby mama's captions always scream, 'Save me'/ You've been doing her dirty all her life, tryin' to make peace/ I heard one of these little kids might be Dave Free/ Don't make it freeze the dave/ Why if GM is your BM Secret BD,” Drake competes.
There's a menacing beat switch and Drake takes aim at his fellow players in the music game while dissing A$AP Rocky, The Weeknd, Metro Boomin, Future and Rick Ross.
“Rakeem talkin' about slow – again/ I'm gassin cause you hit my BM first n— do the math who was I hit then/ I don't even know you rappin' yet cause they only talkin' you in shape again/ I guess I gotta have Kid again before think about dropping any sh– again/ Even when you do they'll tell you you should have been modeling cause it's in the middle again,” Drake raps while landing a right hook on Rocky.
Drake apologizes for being static with Future, but blames Metro Boomin — whom he calls by his government name (Leland Green) — and hints that he has a romantic past with a woman who has a history with Metro.
“Pluto makes me sick to my stomach, we never really went through it/ Leland Wayne was lame so I know he had to make an impact,” Drake continues.
There's always room for a smoke with Rozai as Drizzy digs into the penitentiary's past: “Body after body and you know Rick's reading me my Miranda Rights.”
The accompanying music video finds Drake heading to the Chinese restaurant Kendrick New Ho King referenced in “Euphoria.”
With a beat change on the third track, Drizzy brings the scope back to Lamar and challenges him to move to New York and live the “single life” while trolling him about the jewelry he bought from 2Pac's estate and his collection Pharrell.
Kendrick went back-to-back with “Euphoria” and “6:16 in LA” before Drake came in with a seven-minute thrashing. That doesn't look like it's going to end anytime soon either.
