Dr. Dre’s new album Compton has everyone talking, but not necessarily about the Doctor. Actually, everyone seems more preoccupied with some suspected shade coming from Kendrick Lamar in his features on Dre’s album. The recipient of that shade? None other than Drake.
The lyrics from two songs on the album suggest that Meek Mill isn’t the only one taking some shots at Jimmy.
On “Darkside/Gone” Kendrick raps:
“You scared of my heist now/But still I got enemies giving me energy/I wanna fight now/Subliminals sending me all of this hate/I thought I was holding the mic down”
And on “Deep Water” he raps:
“They liable to bury him/They nominated six to carry him/They worry him to death but he no vegetarian/The beef is on his breath inheritin’ the drama like better than a Great White/Nigga, this is life in my aquarium!”
Lamar’s use of the words energy and the six reference songs on Drake’s If Your Reading This It’s Too Late. Drizzy has yet to drop any diss tracks or even show signs of noticing the shade. We’ll have to wait and see how this beef stews.
Outside of the drama, the album is as lit as expected. You can purchase Compton here and listen for yourself.
