Kendrick Lamar Drops Second Drake Diss Track, ‘6:16 in LA’; Mocks ‘Toosie Slide,’ Drake’s OVO Crew
¡Hola, corillo! Are you ready for the latest chisme in the rap mundo? Kendrick Lamar is stirring up the scene again, and let me tell you, it’s getting caliente. Just when we thought the waves had calmed, Kendrick has dropped another bomba musical, diving deep into the rap battle with none other than Drake.
This new sizzler, titled "6:16 in LA," cleverly plays off Drake’s own series of "timestamp songs," you know, like "4 PM in Calabasas" and the more recent “8 AM in Charlotte.” Kendrick’s choice of title isn't just a casual nod; it's a full-on parody, mi gente, packed with sharper jabs and deeper cuts.
So, ¿qué pasó? Released bright and early at 9 AM EST via Instagram this Friday, "6:16 in LA" isn’t just a diss track—it’s a declaration. Kendrick isn’t holding back, tossing lyric darts aimed directly at Drake's OVO squad. Picture this: Kendrick, mic in hand, saying, “Have you ever thought that OVO was workin’ for me? / Fake bully, I hate bullies, you must be a terrible person / Everyone in your team is whispering that you deserve it.” ¡Ay, que fuerte! He even throws shade at Drake’s viral dance hit, mentioning, “Can’t 'Toosie Slide' out of this one / it's just gon’ resurface.”
Pero espera, there's more! The history of these two in beef goes way back, reminiscent of Drake’s own 2015 lyrical tussle with Meek Mill. Back then, Drake didn’t just release one, but dos tracks ["Charged Up" and "Back to Back"] in quick succession, throwing barbs that got the whole industry talking. Kendrick, in his track "Euphoria," hints nostalgically at Drake's tactics, cheekily suggesting he's taking a page from Drake's book with his own strategy, rhyming, "’Back To Back,' I like that record / I'ma get back to that, for the record."
Let me tell you, the audacity and bravado are making this battle one for the history books! Kendrick releasing two explosive tracks before Drake could even hit back adds just the right amount of sazón to this fiery feud. And despite the serious tones, there’s an undeniable artistry at play here, with both artists flexing their lyrical muscles and creativity—something we all get to witness como espectadores en la primera fila.
Now, whether you’re Team Lamar or Team Drake, one thing’s for sure: the world of rap keeps serving us these emocionantes titulares, and we can’t help but tune in. As Kendrick asserts his dominance and Drake presumably prepares his response, all eyes are on them, wondering what will happen next in this high-stakes musical showdown.
So, mis amigos, stay tuned. This drama is unfolding in real-time, and no doubt there’s more to come. Will Drake slide back with a response, or will Kendrick’s "6:16 in LA" cut too deep? Only time will tell, but one thing's for sure, the rap game remains as vibrante and thrilling as ever, proving once again why it’s the beating corazón of the music industry. ¡Nos vemos!
