In Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Control’ verse, Drake was one of the 12 names he called out of rappers he had love for but wanted to murder. In a 2013 interview, Drake called the verse, “an ambitious thought.” He also said he didn’t feel as thought Lamar was trying to outdo him.
The two has since then claimed there has been no love lost. According to former NFL player/current radio host Marcellus Wiley, he witnessed the two go toe to toe during an interview. He says the interview was shelved due to Lamar’s team asking for it to be.
“I can’t say what I wanna say, but I’m gonna say it anyways because my contract is up and this might give me more money. All I know is there was a beef, and all I know is I was witness to when the beef would have ignited to proportions we have not seen since Ja Rule/50, maybe even Ice Cube/N.W.A. Like it went there. But that was destroyed from everyone’s property. That was destroyed, that interview, that moment was destroyed. That’s all I’m gonna say. But I was there and I heard the shots fired.”
Wiley does not want to speak on which side fueled the fight. He says,
“It was one-sided, and the other side was about to retaliate if that would’ve got out, but they destroyed the evidence. And I ain’t lying.”
