The Clipse rapper didn&#8217;t jump into the Compton performer&#8217;s feud with him directly. He did make his position clear on various occasions, however. During a recent appearance on <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/nfr_podcast\/status\/1943710445933637814?s=12&amp;t=6N2L99mKx7LzXYhb_3_zwQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">The Breakfast Club,<\/a> he even confirmed that he and Kendrick kept in touch amid the viral battle. <\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">&#8220;I think great lyricists just tune into the obvious,&#8221; he shared, as captured by <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/nfr_podcast\/status\/1943710445933637814?s=12&amp;t=6N2L99mKx7LzXYhb_3_zwQ\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">NFR Podcast.<\/a> When asked if he spoke to Kendrick during the beef, he said &#8220;Hell yeah, he&#8217;s my guy.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">Pusha T praised Kendrick for his lyricism at Saint &amp; Citizen\u2019s \u201cSaint Sessions Live\u201d event at Art Basel in Miami late last year. At the time, he said that&#8217;s what ultimately allowed him to come out on top.<\/p>\n<p>Clipse Let God Sort Em Out<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">&#8220;I think that Kendrick is a lyricist and a lyricist that talks to your soul. Like, you could be clever, you can say cute things,&#8221; he explained. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/866772-pusha-explains-kendrick-lamar-1000-beef-against-drake-hip-hop-news\" target=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">&#8220;But the truth really hurts<\/a> and the truth cuts deep. And I think what Kendrick was doing was really talking to his soul. I believe that. And I believe that\u2019ll cause you to tap out, that\u2019ll cause you to sue, that\u2019ll cause you to do a lot of things. It\u2019s crazy. Listen, suing is crazy \u2026 it\u2019s nuts.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">Pusha T&#8217;s latest remarks about Kendrick arrive shortly after the release of the first Clipse album in over 15 years, Let God Sort Em Out. K.Dot is featured on the track &#8220;Chains &amp; Whips,&#8221; and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/928225-kendrick-lamar-clipse-so-be-it-new-album-hip-hop-news\" target=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">was nearly featured on &#8220;So Be It&#8221;<\/a> too. Ultimately, he sent the first verse faster.<\/p>\n<p class=\"font-lora text-dark-grey !leading-[1.9125rem] break-words text-[17px] lg:text-lg\">&#8220;Yo, but I think <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/928115-kendrick-lamar-clipse-album-reactions-hip-hop-news\" target=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\">it&#8217;s a testament to his skill,&#8221;<\/a> Malice said on The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hotnewhiphop.com\/profile\/joebudden\" class=\"font-semibold hover:text-accent-color border-b-2 border-accent-color\" target=\"\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Joe Budden<\/a> Podcast, revealing that the verse was sent amid Kendrick&#8217;s beef with Drake. &#8220;Because, in the middle of everything he was going through, [he] delivered not just a verse, but a verse like that. Top to bottom. Like, he went in.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Pusha T and Kendrick Lamar both have a history of beefing with Drake.
