Drake Sparks Controversy with AI-Powered Tupac & Snoop Dogg Diss Track on IG

/0 Comments/in /by

In a move sure to ignite the hip-hop world, Drake dropped a new song on his Instagram page featuring AI-generated verses from rap legends Tupac Shakur and Snoop Dogg.  The track, titled “West Coast Reppin’,” quickly went viral, but for reasons Drake might not have anticipated.

While the song boasts a catchy beat and Drake’s signature smooth flow, the controversy lies in the AI-generated Tupac and Snoop Dogg verses.  Both legends appear to be taking aim at Kendrick Lamar, with lyrics that many interpret as veiled disses.  Lines like “King of the West Coast? More like king of retreats” (referencing Kendrick’s perceived absence from the mainstream) and “Came in hot, fizzled out like a sparkler” (possibly referencing a decline in Kendrick’s recent work) have fans divided.

The use of AI to impersonate deceased artists has already sparked ethical discussions, and this latest move by Drake throws gasoline on the fire.  Whether this is a clever marketing ploy by Drake or a genuine artistic exploration remains to be seen.  One thing is for sure: the hip-hop community is waiting with bated breath for Kendrick Lamar’s response.

Noname’s sharp lyricism goes,

Read in between the line at the crime scene / I ain’t f*cking with the NFL or Jay-Z / Propaganda for the military complex, the same gun that shot lil’ Terry out West / The same gun that shot Senair in the West Bank / We all think the Super Bowl is the best thing,” raps Noname, before she gets at Beyoncé, Ri and K Dot.

However, Noname clarified in her conversation with Ebro that her issues are ideological rather than personal. She expressed,

“I don’t hate this man,” said Noname. “I don’t know Jay-Z. He’s a total stranger. We just have ideological differences, that’s all, which the song was just talking about a lot of things, but definitely complacency from all of us.”

She further explained,

“I think the names got the most focus like, ‘Go Rihanna, go. Go, Beyonce, go,'” she added. “But really that was supposed to be me mimicking the crowd like, ‘This is how y’all look, making all these critiques about folks on the internet but then we’d be running to the shows to go and support.”

Ab-Soul Discusses How Kendrick Lamars Departure From TDE Affects Him and His Career

Kendrick Lamar leaving the TDE label draws a response from Ab-Soul.

Ab-Soul sat down for a fresh interview with XXL Magazine as he continued the promotion for his comeback album “HERBERT.” The rapper was questioned about a variety of topics, including the time Kendrick Lamar stated that his album “Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers” would be his last on the TDE label. 

“Well, you know, I always romanticized the idea of us staying together forever,” he said on how Kendrick Lamar leaving the label impacted his course. “And I say this as Kendrick obviously being my brother, you know? I like how he put it. There’s beauty in completion. And you know, I feel like he reached his space where he felt like he needed to embark on something else. I support him in whatever. He’s incredible. He’s an incredible artist and I support him. I’m behind it 100 percent.”

“Did you guys have a conversation about him leaving or can you share any aspect of how that might’ve gone?” he was asked. I feel like that kind of thing, it just kind of went unsaid just for the sake of making sure we remember the brotherhood first. That we’re brothers first and, you know? He’s still somebody that I can call on and vice versa. And that’s the most important thing versus us tryna get to the bottom of why he would start his own label or whatever you have. our brotherhood is more important to me personally.” 

The LA rapper also addressed the issue of whether poetry is a lost art.

“A lost art? I won’t say that. Lost isn’t the word,” he said. “It’s still a lot of us getting down, getting busy in terms of lyricism in that respect. I’m just here to restore the feeling. To keep that, the hip-hop spirit. The essence of it. The root of it. I feel like that’s mine, one of my purposes, for sure. To remember how it started. Hip-hop is amongst the youngest of genres. I feel an obligation to keep paying homage to the pioneers before me and keeping that vein of hip-hop.”

Spottemgottem, f*ckin’ Lil Nas X, f*ckin’…who else are the rest of these n*ggas? The Island Boys, Tekashi 6ix9ine, all them n*ggas look like Tim Burton Batman villains.”

Kendrick Lamar Explains How He Wants His Legacy To Be Remembered

The rapper had a rare interview with 12-year-old reporter Jazzy World just after hitting the Rolling Loud stage in Miami on Sunday. A video of the rapper talking about the widely shared image of a security guard sobbing while he sang “Love” surfaced earlier this week. K. Dot expressed his thankfulness for his ability to move people’s emotions through music.

This week, the complete interview with the Mr. Morale rapper was made available online, and in it, Kendrick discussed how he wants to be remembered in the long run. Kendrick expresses the same optimism for his music’s ability to foster human connection in his response to the security guard.

“Really just an impact to inspire people and always showing them that the duality of life is not such a bad thing,” he stated. “We go through so many volatile situations where we don’t really know how to connect or communicate how we feel so through my music, I wanna make sure that’s the legacy; showing people how to communicate and it’s okay, you know, if you’re not perfect. It’s about accepting the beauty of imperfection.”

He continued, “Do you, be yourself and make sure you love being yourself. It’s gonna be roadblocks, there’s gonna be tribulations but always remember this is a life experience. Accept the experience, appreciate the experience and learn how to move on from things that don’t serve you well. And find your journey, respect your journey and love it.”
