It's been 84 years, and the Drake vs. Kendrick Lamar beef is still ongoing. The rappers might have officially given it a rest, but the media and the fans ignite the fire each time they get a chance. Here was Drake chillin' like a handsome villain and enjoying being the #1 US Spotify Top Artist, but just like that, Kendrick Lamar swooped in and took his throne right under his nose.
Just when Drake received a bit of a spotlight after Kendrick's Grammy and Super Bowl achievements, Lamar snapped his fingers and just like the magician's rabbit, Drake's top spot was also gone. The Canadian heartthrob can't seem to catch a break.
Kendrick Lamar and his fans have been celebrating something new for a month now, and today is no exception. His work speaks for itself, and it shows in times like these. After conquering the music industry, he is still hungry for more knowledge and has enrolled in a college course at UCLA to further his skills.
Fan reaction to Kendrick Lamar dethroning Drake as the #1 US Spotify Top Artist
Kendrick Lamar fans were ecstatic over his achievement and were actively looking for Drake fans to rub it in their face. Drake fans, on the other hand, were playing it cool because their favorite artist did it first.
Music fans, however, seemed like they had had enough of this beef. Here are some of the hilarious comments left by fans that show their true inner feelings.
One user, @6ixsideshooter, made the achievement sound like it's an everyday thing,
"How many times they gon dethrone each other"
Another user, @ButterPepto, added a comment in the same lines; no one knows if they meant it as a compliment or an insult.
"These n***** dethrone each other every week"
User @Ace_d_phoenix proved himself to be a true Drake fan with this comment,
"His best year is competing with Drake's worst year"
One more user, @ClevelandP64500, found a unique way to explain the headline,
"Bro they playing tennis at the top spot"
User @112210PF made an interesting point in this comment,
"And tomorrow here comes Drake dethroning him again"

Kendrick Lamar has had the best start of the year. He started his year with a clean sweep at the Grammys by winning all five categories he was nominated for, including Record of the Year, Best Rap Performance, Song of the Year, Best Music Video, and Best Rap Song.

Then, his good time became a great time when he gave an electrifying performance at the Super Bowl Halftime Show. His halftime show became the most watched show in TV history.
But the great time didn't stop there; it was about to become the best time. The massive success of his performance reshot his songs "HUMBLE", "Money Tree", "Alright", and 'Euphoria" into the daily top 200 song charts. And that's the reason he became the #1 US Spotify Top Artist.
