In the event you did not know, an ongoing rap feud between lyrical wordsmiths Kendrick Lamar and Drake has captivated a lot of the web in latest days. All eyes are on the warring twosome, and if that wasn’t sufficient, now it is being reported that Kendrick is definitely holding again his subsequent observe on account of some sort of advertising and marketing battle with Sony’s rumoured Could PlayStation Showcase, which is able to allegedly happen subsequent week. Whereas stranger issues have occurred, we’re keen to exit on a limb and counsel that this may not be the case.
The story seemingly stems from a Twitter submit by consumer realradec, who alleges that famous podcaster, character, and unabashed Drake-stan, DJ Akademiks, deleted an Instagram submit suggesting as a lot. Within the suspicious submit, on account of a advertising and marketing take care of Sony, Akademiks alleged that Kendrick can be unable to drop his subsequent savage observe till the PlayStation Showcase airs someday subsequent week, which traces up with Grubb’s hearsay from final month.
Whereas DJ Akademiks is a identified amount, realradec is much less so. Their declare has undoubtedly gained traction, however you by no means know as of late. A moderator on r/GamingLeaksAndRumours has referred to as out realradec’s antics, citing the alleged troll’s wildly viral efforts to hyperlink PlayStation properties with trending buzzwords, an honourable endeavor, and we respect the hustle.
The specificity of the declare is what caught our consideration, and needs to be simply skewered if unfaithful. Lamar has launched 4 tracks within the final 4 days, with Drake seemingly reeling from the onslaught. If one other observe drops, we guess this story has no reality, and Drake should go into exile or one thing. Like the remainder of the world, we suppose, we’ll eagerly await Kendrick’s response.
