Metro Boomin is encouraging fans to get into the Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef with a “BBL Drizzy Beat Giveway” in response to Drizzy’s “Family Matters.”
The St. Louis, MO-born producer took to X (formerly Twitter) early on Sunday (May 5) and asked fans to freestyle over a beat, with the best verse receiving a free Metro Boomin beat.
He wrote: “best verse over this gets a free beat. just upload your song and hashtag #bbldrizzybeatgiveaway.”
Metro’s provocation is in response to Drake’s latest diss, “Family Matters,” on which the 6 God raps: “I mean it’s true a n-gga slimed me for my AP/ Just like how Metro n-gga slimed him for his main squeeze/ Out here beggin’ for attention, n-gga, say please.”

The “Creepin’” producer’s solicitation was only the beginning of her taunts towards Drake. He continued an onslaught of taunts towards Drizzy on X.
He echoed Kendrick Lamar’s taunts on his latest diss, “Not Like Us,” noting that the MC was a colonizer, sharing an old video of Drake talking down on Toronto slang.
He shared another video of Drake saying the n-word, and re-posted it with hashtags: “#wedontwannahearyousaynigganomo
#colonizer.”
He also shared a video of a person who looks a lot like Drake getting liposuction on his stomach. Metro commented: “I knowwww a n-gga wit lipo scars not tryna call me lame [three crying laughter emojis, three crying emojis].”

The “Superhero” producer also responded to Drake’s allegations on “Family Matters” that Metro’s friend slept with his girlfriend.
He tweeted: “the drum thing was laughable so I let it slide but what we not gon do is spread lies and have my loved ones involved. nobody ever hit my girl n-gga we grew up together [two crying laughter emojis, two crying emojis] she’s a real woman and not even in the industry but I guess #youwouldntknownunboutdatttt.”

Metro also shared receipts of Drake trying to prevent “Like That,” the track from Future and Metro’s We Don’t Trust You, which kicked off the drama way back in March.
He shared an email and captioned it: “I’m lame but the first week after #LikeThat you tried to block it at radio. I been sitting on this email for a month now but was just sparing you. oh u aint #LikeThat record???”

He concluded his taunts by writing: “now go make another song telling more lies cause we both know you can’t tell everyone why I don’t fuck wit u.
“that wouldn’t be a good look either for u so imma spare us both wit that.”

Kendrick and Drake’s ongoing feud went to a dark place over the weekend when both rappers took shots at each other’s families. With new diss tracks out by each rapper, released an hour apart, the beef entered a new phase.
In the early hours of May 3, K.Dot amped up the rivalry by dropping “6:16 in LA.” A follow up to “euphoria” from earlier in the week, the cut alleged that people in Drizzy’s own team are praying on his downfall and even leaking information to his adversaries.
Less than an hour after the above track surfaced, Kendrick Lamar posted his rebuttal.
“meet the grahams” clocks in at roughly six-and-a-half minutes and addresses each member of Drake’s immediate family — Adonis (son), Sandy (mother) and Dennis (father) — in addition to the Toronto MC himself, who is referred to by his real name, Aubrey Graham.
Kendrick didn’t stop there, sharing “Not Like Us” later on Saturday (May 4).
