In the latest development of the ongoing feud between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, Drake has released a new track titled The Heart Part 6. This song directly responds to Kendrick’s series of diss tracks and takes its name from Kendrick’s popular The Heart song series.

In this track, Drake vehemently denies Kendrick’s allegations of being a sexual predator and having a secret daughter. He asserts his innocence and expresses disgust at the accusations, stating that he would have been arrested if they were true. He also clarifies that he only associates with mature women, not underage girls.

Drake counters Kendrick’s taunt from “Not Like Us”, stating that his name will never appear on a sex offender list. He also accuses Kendrick of being desperate and gullible, claiming he fed Kendrick false information about having an 11-year-old daughter.

The song also sees Drake reiterating previous claims that Kendrick assaulted his fiancée, Whitney Alford, and that Kendrick’s children are the offspring of his manager, Dave Free. He questions why Whitney hasn’t denied the allegations and why she follows Dave Free on social media.

Drake further mocks Kendrick over his track “Mother I Sober”, where Kendrick details his mother’s experience with sexual abuse and her fears about his cousin. Drake suggests that Kendrick’s obsession with pedophile rap stems from his own traumatic experiences.

In the end, Drake challenges Kendrick to stick to the facts, asserting that everything in his songs is factual. He also taunts Kendrick on Instagram, stating that he knows Kendrick will drop a song six minutes after his and that Kendrick has a lot to address.

This song follows Kendrick’s tracks “Not Like Us” and “Meet the Grahams”, which were responses to Drake’s diss record “Family Matters”. The feud continues to escalate, with fans eagerly awaiting Kendrick’s response.
