Life After Kendrick: Where Will Drake Go From Here?

After weeks of nasty disses and allegations, the Drake-Kendrick Lamar beef has finally reached its end. While we’ve observed Lamar’s post-diss track moves, Drizzy’s plans remain a bit unclear, though we have some projections about which direction he may take.

The beef seemed to have peaked with Lamar’s Juneteenth Pop Out concert in Los Angeles, which saw Lamar performing his “Not Like Us” for the first time. Now, with Lamar gearing up to release the music video, it seems that at least the musical aspect of his feud with Aubrey is a wrap. However, all eyes are now on Drake.

After releasing his final diss track, “The Heart Part 6,” it seems Drizzy bowed out gracefully, aside from a few collaborations. He dropped his SoundCloud parody track,  “Wah Gwan Delilah,” followed by a verse on Sexyy Red’s May cut, ​​”U My Everything.” Drake is also featured on Camila Cabello’s album, “C,XOXO,” on records “Hot Uptown” and “Uuugly.” With this list of guest appearances, the Toronto star is undoubtedly back in the studio.

After such a massive demonstration by Lamar, it would only seem fitting that Drake would come back strong with new music of his own. Since one of the key takeaways from the beef was the allegation that Drake did not write his own raps, a mixtape reminding fans of his lyrical capabilities could also help calm the whispers. A treasure trove of behind-the-scenes footage showing Aubrey in the studio penning his rhymes as part of the rollout could also help calm the whispers.

When Drake does drop a full-length project, which we predict will happen sooner rather than later, it would be wise if he refrained from taking aim at any of his fellow artists. This means steering clear of not only Lamar but Future, Rick Ross, and The Weeknd, among others.

Drake has maintained a mostly low profile, which is another sign that he may be planning a lethal comeback. For now, we can only assume his subsequent play, though we’ve certainly not seen the last of Champagne Papi.
