In a broadcast on his America Nu Network, Roc-A-Fella Records co-founder Dame Dash declared the feud between Kendrick Lamar and Drake the greatest rap battle of all time. He also crowned Kendrick the clear winner of this hotly contested rivalry.
According to Dash, Kendrick has not only won the feud but also disrupted Drake’s life. He pointed out that the industry seems to be tired of Drake, with many turning against him. Dash expressed surprise at the number of people who have issues with Drake.
Dash compared the Kendrick-Drake feud with other historical rap battles, such as 2Pac vs. Biggie, Ice Cube vs. N.W.A, and even the feud between his former business partner JAY-Z and Nas. He declared the Kendrick-Drake feud the most impactful battle, stating that the diss tracks seem to be changing the trajectory of the artists’ lives.
Dash also reflected on the early 2000s beef between JAY-Z and Nas. Despite his alliance with JAY-Z at the time, Dash claimed that Nas emerged victorious. He criticized JAY-Z’s response to Nas’ “Ether,” calling it terrible and blaming Irv Gotti for messing it up.
The feud between Kendrick Lamar and Drake has led to an exchange of diss tracks between the two artists.
