Young Thug weighs in on Drake vs Kendrick Lamar.
Young Thug continued the promo run for his new album “UY SCUTI” as the rapper now made an appearance on Adin Ross for a livestream episode. During the livestream, he was asked about the beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar and who has been more impactful.
“I gotta say Drake. He just did more, he put more people on,” he explains. “Not saying that Kendrick didn’t put nobody on, but Drake just did more. He put more people on and he got more numbers. Numbers-wise, statistically, impact on the culture, impact on the world.”
“Kendrick Lamar got a hell of an impact,” he added. “He’s for sure No. 1 ever in life who could possibly come out of L.A. Nobody in L.A. could never ever ever be better than him. He the GOAT of the whole West Coast, for sure. Well I don’t know, I’d probably say Nipsey, but number-wise… I like Nipsey better too but I think number-wise Kendrick Lamar beat him.”

In one of the leaked prison calls recently, Thug fired shots at Lamar and stated he will never be bigger than Drizzy. “You supposed to be a ni–a blessing ni–as. That’s why these ni–as will never be bigger than Drake, EVER in life.”
Thug also criticised K. Dot for not giving him a feature verse. “These ni–as too big, like ‘I ain’t doing no features,’ why?” Thug asked in the clip. “Why wouldn’t you wanna do a feature for a superstar?”
