The rap feud between Drake and Kendrick Lamar just hit a new height, with Taylor Swift included in the midst of it all! Yesterday night, April 19, Drake dropped a surprise freestyle titled “Taylor Made,” which is aimed at Kendrick Lamar, who hasn’t responded to Drake’s previous diss in the song “Push Ups.”
The track features AI vocals and raps from Tupac Shakur and Snoop Dogg and also has a couple of Taylor Swift shoutouts. First, he says that T-Swift is the “biggest gangster” in the music industry and recognizes he’s moved his album release date because of her. He later talks about Kendrick Lamar not responding to his disses because of the hype around Taylor Swift and her new album “The Tortured Poets Department.”
This is what he says:

The beef between the rappers started with Kendrick’s Lamar verse on Future and Metro Boomin’s song “Like That,” in which he comes for Drake’s music quality and references “First Person Shooter,” another Drake song, saying that he is the best rapper in the game. In response, Drake dropped “Push Ups” and most recently “Taylor Made,” but there hasn’t been any response from Kendrick Lamar so far.
