The ongoing feud between Kendrick Lamar and Drake appears no closer to coming to an end amid a new diss track being dropped.
In the past few weeks, the pressure has piled on the Canadian rapper after Lamar released the song 'Like That', on his new album, We Don’t Trust You, with Future and Metro Boomin.
Many speculated the song reunited a feud between Lamar and Drake, with Lamar even declaring that he is 'choosing violence' at the start of the track.

Drake responded to the song shorty after during an on-stage performance last month.
Addressing the audience, Drake could be heard to tell everyone that no-one could 'f*ck with me', in what many said was a direct reference to Lamar.
Speaking to them between songs, he said: “I got my head up high, my back straight, I’m ten f**king toes down… and I know no matter what there’s not another n***** on this Earth that could ever f*ck with me.”
The punching speech was certainly received well by the crowd as many of his fans cheered him on.
However, one person who's seemingly not took it well is Lamar - something which is evident through his latest diss track.
The track, which is titled 'Euphoria', was released on social media platforms earlier today (30 April).
The song makes several lyrical references to Drake’s 'Taylor Made Freestyle', which was released earlier this month.
Drake's track has since been taken down, however, after Tupac Shakur’s estate threatened legal action over the apparent use of AI-generated locals of the late artist.
Anyhow, on 'Euphoria', Lamar raps: "Somebody had told me that you got a ring/On God, I’m ready to double the wage/I’d rather do that than let a Canadian n***** make ’Pac turn in his grave"
While he later asks: "Am I battlin’ ghost or AI?"
Lamar made another of other digs at Drake, as he rapped: "The very first time I shot me a Drac’, the homie had told me to aim it this way/I didn’t point down enough/Today, I show you I learned from those mistakes."
Well, folks on social media are pretty impressed with the diss track, with some saying Lamar has destroyed Drake.
"Smoked Drake," one person penned while a second added: "Drake really can’t compete with kendrick lamar when it comes to rapping and he knows it."
UNILAD has reached out to Drake and Lamar's representatives for comment.
