Can Drake Recover After His Battle With Kendrick Lamar?
With the court of public opinion leaning on Kendrick Lamar was the victor in the rap civil war, Billboard explores the next steps in Drake's career.
After a hellacious heavyweight feud between two of rap’s top superstars, Kendrick Lamar and Drake, the court of public opinion seems poised to announce the Compton MC as the victor. For now, Kendrick can rejoice and hold his head high after issuing the knockout blow of the battle on Saturday (May 4) with “Not Like Us,” topping streaming charts on Spotify and Apple and already making its way into the heart of pop culture. Even after his 2023 For All the Dogs left fans and critics mostly underwhelmed, he still topped the Billboard 200 during the set’s opening week with 402,000 equivalent album units moved, while also notching two Hot 100 chart-toppers with the SZA-assisted “Slime You Out” and “First Person Shooter” with J. Cole.
