Universal Music Group has denied reports that it requested that Kendrick Lamar and Drake end their much-publicised feud.Over the past month, Lamar and Drake have been trading blows over a constant back-and-forth of diss tracks. Earlier this week, Drake dropped his new diss track ‘The Heart Part 6’, on which the Canadian rapper suggested that Lamar’s disses are based on false information fed to him by Drake’s team. He also denied allegations of paedophilia lobbied against him by Kendrick Lamar on ‘Meet The Grahams’.The feud stems from Lamar’s verse on Future and Metro Boomin’s ‘Like That‘ back in March.
In the verse, he responded to J. Cole, who claimed “Love when they argue the hardest MC / Is it K-Dot? Is it Aubrey? Or me? / We the big three like we started a league” on his guest spot on Drake’s track ‘First Person Shooter’.Lamar fired at Cole and Drake on his ‘Like That’ verse: “Motherfuck the big three, n****, it’s just big me”. Cole would go on to respond with his own diss, ‘7 Minute Drill’, but later apologised for it and pulled it from streaming.A post shared by DJ Akademiks (@akademiks)Drake fired back with two tracks ‘Push Ups’ and ‘Taylor Made Freestyle‘.

Lamar then responded with ‘Euphoria‘ on May 1, following it up quickly the following day with ‘6:16 in LA’.Drake’s ‘The Heart Part 6’ is the latest salvo in the back-and-forth feud between the two rappers.
