Drake threatens to reignite the feud with Kendrick Lamar through new diss tracks full of mockery.

Drake has released three new songs out of the blue — and they might just spark round two of his battle with Kendrick Lamar.

The Canadian hitmaker shared the trio of tracks on Friday (August 23) via his burner Instagram account, through which he dropped a similar batch of previously unreleased songs earlier this month in a bid bounce back from his perceived defeat in the beef.

Included in the new releases are “SOD,” his recently leaked collaboration with Lil Yachty that no longer features the Atlanta rapper, “Circadian Rhythm” and “No Face,” which features guest vocals from Playboi Carti.

The latter has quickly generated the most chatter among fans thanks to some choice words from Drake seemingly aimed at Kendrick Lamar and the other rappers he sparred with in April and May.

“N-ggas got lit off the features I skated on / I gotta know, I gotta know / How you get lit off the n-gga you hatin’ on? / Numbers untouchable, they got the data wrong,” he raps, appearing to reference his guest verses for the likes of A$AP Rocky, The Weeknd and Future while casting doubt on Kendrick eclipsing many of his streaming records with “Not Like Us”.

“This is the moment I know they been prayin’ on / What? Aye, what? Aye / Try knock The Boy off, but fuck it, I’m stayin’ on / O’ keep on sendin’ me slaps to go crazy on / 40 keep sayin’ it’s time to be patient / It’s so many people we turnin’ the tables on.”

Drizzy continues in his second verse: “My therapist put in a 30-day notice / ‘Cause I keep on talkin’ ’bout beefin’ and business and money and women / It’s no diagnosis, they emptied the clip,” clearly adopting Kendrick Lamar’s cadence with the last line.

He then warns his opps: “Quick, swap that shit out, and I came back reloaded / I’m just so happy that n-ggas who envied and held that shit in got to finally show it / I’m over the moon, yeah, we’ll see you boys soon / I’m spreadin’ my wings, I hop out cocoon / I’m studio trappin’, I’m locked in the room, what?”

“Circadian Rhythm,” meanwhile, continues the Kendrick taunts as its title seemingly references a line from the Compton rapper’s “6:16 in LA” diss song where he rapped: “I know this type of power is gon’ cost / But I live in circadian rhythms of a shooting star.”

Drake also dubbed the song “The Language 2,” implying it’s a sequel to his 2013 Nothing Was the Same cut on which he subliminally responded to Kendrick’s earth-shaking “Control” verse.

“SOD,” “Circadian Rhythm” and “No Face” are currently only available to stream on Instagram, but they may soon land on streaming services like Drake’s aforementioned 100 GIGS loosies “It’s Up,” “Blue Green Red” and “Housekeeping Knows.”
