It’s been a whole month since the last sparks flew in the Drake vs. Kendrick Lamar showdown. The most recent twist had Drake dropping “The Heart Part 6,” a nod to Kendrick’s iconic freestyle series. This track came right after Kendrick Lamar shattered The Boy’s Spotify record with “Not Like Us”—a move that had fans declaring Kendrick the clear victor.
Fast forward to now, and it looks like Drake is dialing down the drama. He’s hinting at “summer vibes up next,” and his actions seem to back this up. This Wednesday, eagle-eyed fans noticed that Drake had wiped all his Kendrick disses from his Instagram. Instead, he shared snaps from his Toronto pad, captioned with a cheeky, “The only yes man around me is my Rolex dealer.” Interestingly, this social media shake-up coincided with Kendrick’s announcement of his Ken & Friends pop-up in LA with pgLang and Free Lunch, set for Juneteenth.
While Drake’s motives are up in the air—is this a clever PR move, or is he waving the white flag?—only time will tell.
