The President of the United States ended the Drake vs Kendrick Lamar battle earlier this month,But Drake isn't going down without a fight - as he bit back in rap to Barack Obama's choice on Saturday.
The Canadian hip hop star, 29, released his first single off Views From The 6, which referenced the President's decision. Tell Obama that my verses are just like the whips that he in, they bulletproof,' he defiantly raps on Summer Sixteen.
Obama
was asked on January 15, during a You Tube Q&A: 'If Drake and
Kendrick Lamar got in a rap battle, who do you think would win?'
'Gotta
go with Kendrick,' the President answered, 'I’m just saying. I think
Drake is an outstanding entertainer, but Kendrick, his lyrics — his last
album was outstanding. Best album, I think, last year.'
Two weeks ago Kendrick paid a visit to the White House and shared an image alongside the President.
He
captioned the black and white picture: 'hood politics', to describe
their meeting to discuss how to improve inner-city communities.
Obama
also previously nailed his colours to Kendrick's mast in the feud
between the two rap stars when he named Kendrick’s To Pimp A Butterfly
track How Much a Dollar Cost as his favourite of 2015.
