Skepta Says Drake and Kendrick Lamar Were ‘Looking Crazy' During Beef: ‘It’s Hurting What We’ve Built'

Skepta has been reflecting on Drake and Kendrick Lamar’s beef.

The British artist sat down with The Ebro Show to discuss the pair’s feud and its impact on rap while promoting his new single "Why Lie?" featuring Flo Milli.

“When stuff gets said like that today, it’s more personal,” Skepta told Ebro Darden at around the 28:15 minute mark. “There was one K.Dot diss track that came out and I was like, ‘Oh, this is over,’” Skepta remembered. “They don’t like each other. It’s clear, I can hear it. I can hear it in his voice, he doesn’t like Drake.”

Skepta then pointed out that both Drizzy and Kenny were “looking crazy” dissing each other because they both have “major deals” with “major companies.”

“How can they sign a man that is being accused of this thing?” the “That’s Not Me” rapper asked, seemingly questioning Lamar calling the 6 God a pedophile on “Not Like Us.”

"When I was clashing in grime, we never had nothing to lose,” Skepta explained. “You could call me anything in the world, I am not going to lose a Nike deal. … That'd probably even get me more money."

"It's hurting what we've built,” Skepta continued, lamenting rap's position now following their beef.

“If you don't like each other just link up and speak and just talk to each other. Or don't speak to each other. But all this stuff you're saying, for the rest of everyone else, who is waiting in line for the doors that you've kicked open, these doors are shutting on us right now. We’re looking crazy out here. That's why I didn't like that. It was good until then.”
