While some may have been excited Or amused by the diss-track feud between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, the man many consider to be an elder statesman of hip-hop appears less than enthused about it.
Questlove, the drummer for the hip-hop group The Roots, that many took to be about the high-profile battle between the two rappers.
âNobody won the war,â he wrote. âThis wasnât about skill. This was a wrestling match level mudslinging and takedown by any means necessary â women & children (and actual facts) be damned.â
Drake and Lamar have engaged in a lyrical battle in recent weeks, releasing âdiss tracksâ against each other that include personal and professional jabs that have fueled online debate among their fans.
Social media leaned into the drama with memes and hot takes about who âwon.â
But Questlove appeared to take a darker attitude about it.
âSame audience wanting blood will soon put up âRIPâ posts like they werenât part of the problem,â he wrote in is note. âHip hop truly is dead.â
