    Kendrick Lamar diss tracks seemingly by Lil Wayne circulate online

    4 Mins Read

    Lil Wayne seemingly called out Kendrick Lamar on a diss track that started to circulate online recently.

    Tensions between Wayne and Lamar recently heightened after it was revealed that Lamar would headline the 2025 Super Bowl Halftime show in New Orleans: Lil Wayne’s hometown. Wayne has long expressed his hopes to perform at the prestigious sports event so, when it was revealed that next year’s slot was given to the Compton star, controversy sparked – with Nicki Minaj, Birdman and more slamming the NFL for its decision.

    Lamar recently namechecked Wayne on ‘Wacced Out Murals’ from his latest album ‘GNX’, released last month via his own pgLang label. “Used to bump ‘Tha Carter III’, I held my Rollie chain proud/ Irony, I think my hard work let Lil Wayne down,” Lamar rapped. “Won the Super Bowl and Nas the only one congratulate me/ All these n***** agitated, I’m just glad they showin’ they faces.”

    Wayne initially responded to Lamar in a tweet: “Man wtf I do?! I just be chillin & dey still kome 4 my head. Let’s not take kindness for weakness. Let this giant sleep. I beg u all. No one really wants destruction, not even me but I shall destroy if disturbed. On me. Love.”

    However, there are rumours that Wayne also created a few diss tracks in response. Recently, snippets of two alleged unreleased songs by the ‘A Milli’ rapper surfaced on X/Twitter.

    One currently called ‘Stanley Cup’ sees Wayne addressing Lamar getting the Super Bowl halftime slot and namechecking him on ‘Wacced Out Murals’. He raps: “You awoke the giant but do you have your level up?/ Perform the Super Bowl, n****, I’d rather do the Stanley Cup” – referring to the biggest event in Ice Hockey.

    Another one sees the Young Money/Cash Money founder throw shade at Lamar over the infamous beat for ‘Not Like Us’ – a diss track originally aimed at Wayne’s protege, Drake. The 42-year-old began: “They can’t be Weezy/ Hall Of Fame mode, this shit too easy.”

    Lil Wayne has not confirmed whether the tracks are genuine and have been leaked. Many people on X/Twitter suspected both songs were AI-generated – including recent Lamar collaborator Hitta J3, who tweeted, “That lil Wayne diss better be A.I.”

    Back in November, Joe Budden suggested Wayne had recorded a diss track against Lamar after the release of ‘Wacced Out Murals’: “I’m hearing that somebody picked up the phone and tried to call and see what the energy was. I’m hearing that Kendrick didn’t answer.”

    He continued: “If I’m calling you rapper-to-rapper and you don’t answer… Now, I’m going in the booth. You have until I get in that booth to hit me back. I’m hearing that Wayne went in the booth.”

    Drake also created an AI-generated diss track aimed at Lamar this year. Back in April – during his high-profile feud with Lamar – the Torontonian shared ‘Taylor Made Freestyle’, which featured fake verses from Tupac and Snoop Dogg. He eventually removed the song from the internet after being threatened with legal action by Tupac’s estate.

    Simultaneously, a diss track from Lamar called ‘One Shot’ went viral online. The song also turned out to be AI.-generated by TikTok rapper-producer SyTheRapper.

    Earlier this week, Lil Wayne revealed that he and Lamar had spoken about the latter’s 2025 Super Bowl Halftime Show performance. “He gotta kill it,” Wayne said.

    Lamar’s ‘GNX’ has gone in at Number 12 on NME’s 50 best albums of 2024 list, while his Drake-beef hit ‘Not Like Us’ is our second-best song of the year.

    In other news, Lamar has been called “the Taylor Swift of hip-hop” by comedian Andrew Schulz.
