First of all, J.Colewho released sounds attacking Kendrick, publicly apologized and even removed those tracks. But that’s not all. According to Joe Budden, Lil Wayne was planning a clash with Kendrick before changing his mind. Finally, Wayne called Lamar to congratulate him on his selection for the show du SuperBowlstating:
“We called each other and I wished him the best. He realized how important this was to me, so he better tear it up!”
Finally, the most surprising reaction comes from Snoop Dogg. While he has just released a joint album with Dr.DreSnoop recently shared the song Drake, “Taylor Made Freestyle”a song that attacked Kendrick Lamar. Snoop publicly apologized:
“I left him a voicemail saying, ‘Nephew, it’s Uncle Snoop, I heard your message in your album. I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have.’”
