Kenny vs. Lu
Kendrick Lamar, Lupe Fiasco diss track could be on the way, after this latest eye-raising message from Top Dawg Entertainment. Earlier this week, Lupe Fiasco took time to respond to a fan’s questions, whether or not he was better than Kendrick Lamar. The Chicago rapper hasn’t shied away from voicing his opinion on the music industry in recent years, given his independence with 1st & 15th from the major labels.
This led to Lu breaking down that why he believed Kenny was the better artist; Fiasco felt he was the better lyricist. With many coming to defense on Lamar on social media, this led to Top Dawg Entertainment’s own President laughing at the situation and watching it continue for the last 48 hours.
That was until he sent out a cryptic message saying “Be careful what you ask for.” This led many under the assumption that response track from Kendrick is in the works or has already been recording. Considering Lupe issued a warning message in retaliation after Punch, he could have something ready as well.
Take a look at media below and let us know in the comments if you want a back-and-forth with these music greats.
Lol.

Be careful what you ask for. You may get it. This business isn’t for the faint of heart.
