Web speculates on Lamar rap

-

The Internet is playing the guessing game about rapper Kendrick Lamar’s target in a new song. Lamar released The Heart Part 4 on Friday and caused a frenzy on social media as fans and listeners tried to figure out who the rapper is referring to. Drake, Big Sean and J. Cole were some of the rappers speculated to be Lamar’s target on the song, which starts with the line, “Don’t tell a lie on me/ I won’t tell the truth about you.” On the second verse he raps, “Tiptoeing around my name ... you lame/ And when I get at you, homie, don’t you just tell me you was just playing.” He also name-drops the U.S. president: “Donald Trump is a chump, know how we feel, punk/ Tell ’em that God coming/ And Russia need a replay button, y’all up to something/ Electoral votes look like memorial votes/ But America’s truth ain’t ignoring the votes.”
