Joe Budden Claims Drake and Kendrick Lamar Both Have "Nuclear" Diss Tracks At the Ready

Drake and Kendrick Lamar are supposedly ready to aggrandize their ongoing beef with new diss tracks — ones described by Joe Budden as “nuclear.”

Budden shared the rumor during the latest episode of The Joe Budden Podcast, “Whatever little rappy sh*t you thought was going on, it’s not that and something’s coming.” He continued, “I think that J. Cole knows that from either Drake, Kendrick or both. And it was time to bow out because we are no longer in the first round.”

He further stated that he has it “on good information” that both Drizzy and K-Dot have already recorded the “nuclear” tracks, “It’s up, up. I’m hearing this from people that can rap. So I wanna come in here and say that speculation time is over. Debate time is over.”

“I been saying for a few pods that I’ve seen absolutely nothing from Drake to get me excited enough to think that he will be capable of doing what needs to be done against the likes of a Kendrick Lamar,” Budden added. “I’m here to say there is no longer any need for me to instigate anything. We’re here and apparently he did it and people heard it. I heard it’s bad.”

The rumors are circulating shortly after J. Cole publicly apologized to Lamar over releasing “7 Minute Drill” — his response to the latter’s verse on “Like That.” He shared his thoughts during his Dreamville Fest set, “One part of that sh*t makes me feel like that’s the lamest sh*t I ever did in my f*cking life.”
