Kendrick Lamar Wastes No Time to Answer Drake Diss With New Song “Meet the Grahams”: Listen

Kendrick
Lamar
is
already
back
with
another

Drake
diss.
“Meet
the
Grahams,”
the
Compton
artist’s
third
track
of
the
week—following
“Euphoria”
and
“6:16
in
LA”—arrives
within
an
hour
of
Drake’s
barbed
response,
“Family
Matters.”

new
song

Lamar
opens
“Meet
the
Grahams”
by
addressing
Drake’s
son,
Adonis
Graham:

Dear
Adonis,
I’m
sorry
that
that
man
is
your
father,
let
me
be
honest
It
takes
a
man
to
be
a
man,
your
dad
is
not
responsive
I
look
at
him
and
wish
your
grandpa
woulda
wore
a
condom
I’m
sorry
that
you
gotta
grow
up
and
then
stand
behind
him

Next,
Lamar
address
Drake’s
mother,
Sandra
Graham:
“Dear
Sandra,
your
son
got
some
habits/I
hope
you
don’t
undermine
them.”
He
saves
some
harsh
words
for
Drake’s
father,
Dennis
Graham—“You
raised
a
horrible
fuckin’
person/The
nerve
of
you,
Dennis”—before
turning
back
to
Sandra:
“Your
son’s
a
sick
man
with
sick
thoughts/I
think
n—-s
like
him
should
die/Him
and
Weinstein
should
get
fucked
up
in
a
cell
for
the
rest
of
they
life.”
He
continues,
“And
we’ve
gotta
raise
our
daughters
knowing
there’s
predators
like
him
lurkin’/Fuck
a
rap
battle,
he
should

die,
so
all
of
these
women
can
live
with
a
purpose.”

Later,
Lamar
raps
to
a
figure
he
calls
“baby
girl”:
“I’d
like
to
say
it’s
not
your
fault
that
he’s
hiding
another
child/Give
him
grace/That’s
the
reason
I
made

Mr.
Morale.”
The
lyrics
are,
at
the
very
least,
in
reference
to
Pusha
T’s
famous
Drake
diss
“The
Story
of
Adidon.”

Addressing
Drake
directly,
Lamar
explains
that
he’s
gone
so
viciously
after
Drake
because
he
brought
the
Californian’s
family
into
the
rap
beef.
“Why
you
had
to
stoop
so
low
to
discredit
some
decent
people?”
he
asks,
“Guess
integrity
is
lost
when
the
metaphors
doesn’t
reach
you.”
He
closes
the
track,
“Fuck
a
rap
battle/This
a
lifelong
battle
with
yourself.”
