Accusations that Kendrick Lamar employs “ghostwriters” have been making the rounds on the internet since Baby Keem’s reference track was made public.

K. Dot’s views on ghostwriting and his remarks in a 2017 Rolling Stone article have drawn attention from fans. The Compton native was asked about his thoughts on ghostwriters for rappers, but his response was ambiguous.

“It depends on what arena you’re putting yourself in. I called myself the best rapper. I cannot call myself the best rapper if I have a ghostwriter,” he said in the cover interview. “If you’re saying you’re a different type of artist and you don’t really care about the art form of being the best rapper, then so be it. Make great music. But the title, it won’t be there.”

On June 2, however, fans discovered that Keem’s reference track, “Bullies,” had leaked online. This track purportedly challenged Drake’s claim in “Family Matters,” which stated that “K Dot shit is only hittin hard when Baby Keem put his pen to it.”

On the same song where Baby Keem claimed to have given Kendrick false information, Drake hinted that the rapper could be using Baby Keem as a covert weapon.

He rapped, “We planned for a week, and then we fed you the information.” “I’m sure he takes it from an eleven-year-old daughter. We considered giving her a false name or destination, but you’re so thirsty that you don’t care to look into it.”

“Instead you in that Venice studio, it’s a celebration/ You gotta learn to fact-check things and be less impatient/ Your/ fans are rejoicin’, thinkin’ this is my expiration/ Even the picture you used, the jokes and the medication/ The Maybach glove and the drug he use is for less inflation/ Master manipulator, you bit on the speculation.”

But speaking on his Rumble channel, Akademiks — who has been in regular contact with Drizzy throughout his feud with Kendrick and even premiered numerous diss songs — appeared to turn on the 6 God by sharing some insider information.

The media personality said of the artwork for K. Dot’s “Meet the Grahams,” which featured several items allegedly belonging to Drake including Ozempic pills: “I think Drake knew these things were stolen. It does look like some stolen shit.”

Ak added: “Drake did know that they were stolen so I don’t know if he’s trying to reverse psychology it. When Drake said he set it up, I’m taking that to be the 11-year-old daughter thing,” he continued, referencing Kendrick’s claim that the Toronto native secretly fathered a daughter.
