Kendrick Lamar is taking a jab at an array of fellow rappers on a recently released Big Sean track that he’s featured on. In it, he disses Drake, Mac Miller, Wale, A$AP Rocky, Meek Mill and even Big Sean.
The track, “Control,” was featured on Big Sean’s album Hall of Fame and featured Jay Electronica. Lamar’s verse is on an extended version of the song.
E! Online reports he raps “I'm usually homeboys with the same n---as I'm rhymin with / But this is hip-hop and them n---as should know what time it is/ And that goes for Jermaine Cole, Big K.R.I.T., Wale, Pusha T, Meek Mill, A$AP Rocky, Drake, Big Sean, Jay Electron', Tyler, Mac Miller.”
He adds, "I got love for you all but I'm tryna murder you n---as / Tryna make sure your core fans never heard of you n---as / They don't wanna hear not one more noun or verb from you n---as."
Lamar is now trending on Twitter because of the verses, and many took to Twitter to weigh in.
"Kendrick Lamar's the truth. But you got to read between the lines. He didn't diss anybody he mentioned, he dissed everyone he didn't."

Kendrick Lamar didn't "diss" anybody. He just called them all out & challenged them to step up their game.
