Kendrick Lamar left no stone unturned on his new album GNX . He got everything he wanted to say about the industry, and the Drake battle, off his chest. One of the most surprising references on the album was to fellow West Coast titan Snoop Dogg .
Lamar took Uncle Snoop to task for sharing the Drake diss song "Taylor Made Freestyle" during the height of the battle. He was cordial about it, and Snoop Dogg took to social media to admit that he was wrong. He gave the Compton rapper his flowers, and assured him that he was still team West Coast.
The K. Dot lyrics in question were on the song "wagged out murals." The Compton rapper admitted he was hurt to see that Snoop Dogg has endorsed his enemy, despite their close friendship.
"Snoop posted 'Taylor Made'," he rapped. "I prayed it was the edibles. I couldn't believe it, it was only right for me to let it go.
" It didn't take long for Snoop Dogg to get on the horn and broadcast his response. He took to Twitter to clarify that it was, indeed, the edibles that made him briefly side with Drake. "K Dot new album GNX," he wrote alongside fire emojis.
"It was the edibles. West West King." Read More: Kendrick Lamar "GNX" Full Credits: SZA, Mustard, Roddy Ricch & More This is not the first time Snoop Dogg has labeled Kendrick Lamar the King of the West Coast.
He said the same exact thing during an Instagram Live in July. The rapper was unable to attend Dot's Pop Out Show, but he made it clear that he was impressed with what he saw via stream. "That was fun to watch," Snoop asserted.
"Beautiful to see all my peoples come together...
K. Dot, you are the King of the West. That’s the kind of sh*t kings do, we unite.
" This is undoubtedly a tough turn of events for Drake, who'd had a casually friendly relationship with Snoop Dogg up to that point. "Taylor Made Freesyle" was, of course, the Drake diss in which he utilized AI. He emulated the voices and flows of Tupac and Snoop Dogg to "advise" Kendrick Lamar on how the win the battle.
It was an odd choice, but it was definitely novel. Snoop Dogg was baffled by the decision, as he documented in a funny IG post. The humor has since escaped, however, and he has definitely chosen the West Coast King over the 6 God.
