A$AP Rocky Introduces New Track to Kendrick, Drake, and Cole’s ‘Big 3’ Feud
A recent headlining performance by the talented A$AP Rocky at Rolling Loud California shook up the ongoing feud between hip-hop heavyweights Kendrick Lamar, Drake, and J. Cole. In a jaw-dropping display of skill and confidence, A$AP Rocky made his stance clear through a new song, taking a bold stand against aligning himself with any of the “Big Three.” Perched on a helicopter’s edge, he delivered fierce lyrics that emphasized his commitment to his unique artistry, leaving no room for misinterpretation. In a direct reference to his former associate A$AP Relli, with whom he had legal conflicts in the past, Rocky’s lyrics pulled no punches, stating his perspective on their relationship and dismissing any claims of friendship.
Aside from the track that ignited the feud flames, A$AP Rocky also treated fans to other new songs during his Rolling Loud set, including collaborations with renowned producers Metro Boomin and BossMan Dlow. Although the artist remained tight-lipped about these new tracks potentially appearing on his upcoming album, Don’t Be Dumb, it’s evident that his creative fire is burning hot.
The ongoing tension with Drake, largely fueled by past rumors involving Rihanna, has been a prevalent theme in Rocky’s recent work. Drake’s alleged insinuations about Rocky and Rihanna in his 2023 track “Fear of Heights” paved the way for a series of responses from Rocky, including tracks like “Highjack.” Despite the artistic back-and-forth, Rocky has been clear in interviews that he won’t be drawn into the drama, highlighting real-world issues that take priority over petty disputes. He emphasized his focus on more significant challenges and the importance of staying above trivial conflicts.
Regarding his highly anticipated album, Rocky has hinted at its approaching completion in recent interviews. He expressed an eagerness to share his new material, emphasizing the readiness of the album for release and his determination to provide his fans with the content they’ve been waiting for. With the finishing touches in the mixing and mastering phases, there’s a palpable excitement in the air as listeners anticipate the drop of Don’t Be Dumb and the fresh perspective it promises to deliver.
