The record, WE DON'T TRUST YOU, came out Friday and immediately caused a frenzy thanks to a surprise verse from the Kendrick Lamar, guest starring on the track Like That.

According to Billboard, fans immediately zeroed in on a few lines that seem to aim shade at superstars Drake and J. Cole,

The fiery verse references Drake and Cole's 2023 collab First Person Shooter, where Cole raps about a "Big Three" of himself, Drake, and Lamar.

However, Lamar appears to mock this by spitting, "F*** sneak dissing, 'First Person Shooter,' I hope they came with three switches."

Kendrick doesn't hold back, seemingly aiming for Drake again with the verse, "Fore all your dogs gettin' buried, that's a K with all these nines, he gon' see Pet Sematary."

This is most likely a reference to Drake's most recent album, For All The Dogs.

The timing just adds fuel to the flames, with Drake and J. Cole currently on their joint tour.
