During the sit-down, 21 addressed the Drake and Kendrick Lamar beef. The Atlanta rhymer revealed he warned Drake not to engage in the lyrical squabble.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I told that ni**a not to even do all that sh*t anyway,&#8221; 21 said. &#8220;I told that ni**a leave that sh*t alone. But he felt like he was being challenged lyrically, so he wanted to respond.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>21 said the reason he told Drake not to get involved was because he felt it was a no-win situation.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;No matter what, bruh. Certain situations, even if you win, you still don&#8217;t win,&#8221; 21 said. &#8220;When you&#8217;re at the top, and you the No. 1 ni**a, where does winning put you? You can&#8217;t go No. 1.1. So, how the f**k could you win anyway? That&#8217;s what I told him.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Due to being friends with Drake, 21 Savage had the unfortunate stance of being stuck in the middle of Aubrey&#8217;s beef with Metro Boomin, with whom 21 is also good friends. Both of them are featured on 21&#8217;s new album. Drake appears on the song &#8220;Mr. Recoup,&#8221; while Metro is featured on &#8220;Gang Over Everything.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Watch 21 Savage Address the Drake and Kendrick Lamar Beef on the Perspektives With Bank Podcast<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/www.xxlmag.png\" alt=\"XXL logo\"\/><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"21 Savage urged Drake not to get involved in beef with Kendrick Lamar.
