Drake’s feud with Kendrick Lamar has taken a weird authorized flip, with the rapper requesting private paperwork about Kendrick.

Drake is taking his battle with Kendrick Lamar into the courtroom. But you already know this. There’s a brand new transfer that has us Hip-Hop heads scratching our heads.

(((Breathes in deeply)))

In a shocking twist, Drake’s authorized group has reportedly requested Universal music Group handy over paperwork associated to home violence allegations in opposition to Kendrick. The request has left many questioning what the Toronto famous person hopes to realize. (I’m attempting to keep up my skilled aspect right here.) Kendrick has roughly dismissed these accusations by that includes his smiling spouse and youngsters within the music video “Not Like Us.”

It doesn’t cease there. Drake’s camp can be asking for info on supervisor Dave Free’s relationship with Kendrick’s youngsters. Yes, you learn that proper. The weird request has folks speculating whether or not that is some sort of obscure authorized maneuver or only a puzzling fishing expedition.

One extra time…

This sort of transfer is unprecedented in rap beef. Subpoenas? We’ve by no means seen this occur earlier than in a rap battle. I assume it’s now not a battle, proper? That was over a 12 months or extra in the past.

Drake isn’t simply coping with the authorized feud. He’s gearing as much as launch his new album Iceman and anticipation is boiling over. Hardcore supporters and informal listeners alike are able to see if the 6 God can ship a musical comeback. His newest authorized strikes hold reminding us that he’s principally a sore loser.

Maybe that is all a part of an even bigger plan. Maybe. But…it seems like Drake’s technique is like taking part in chess on a checker board. Or checkers on a board with no squares. We’re far and wide. If Drake wished to maintain the concentrate on the music, these courtroom antics are doing the other. A musical comeback will do what a loss in a rap battle or a authorized win may by no means do.
