Hip hop fans are no strangers to beef. From Tupac and Biggie to Jay-Z and Nas, Nicki Minaj and Remy Ma to 50 Cent and Ja Rule, rap’s 50-year history is littered with some iconic lyrical battles. But arguably the most epic rap beef in recent memory has been unfolding in the past few months between hip hop giants Kendrick Lamar and Drake. Countless think pieces have been penned on the subject, so we won’t bore you with another in depth rundown about who won which round. What we will do however, is get into the music with another vibey summer playlist!
While the general consensus is that Drake took a major L on this one, the one thing that we can all agree on is that as fans of the genre, these two artists have a long history of gifting us with bangers. So whether you're Team Kendrick or Team Drake this playlist will have something for you – enjoy the biggest hits from their recent beef, and take a nostalgic musical journey of some of their best tracks.
