Kendrick Lamar Accused Of Stealing Lines From Battle Rappers For His “Euphoria” Diss Track

Kendrick Lamar’s new diss track “Euphoria” aimed at Drake has been the subject of discussion among Hip Hop fans since it dropped.

While many believe it’s arguably one of the best diss tracks ever made, some argue it’s full of recycled jabs at Drake.

Amid all this, clips from battle rappers facing off have surfaced, with similar lines to those of Kendrick’s on “Euphoria”, suggesting the Compton native may have stole the lyrics from these battle rappers.

In one of the clips, the battle rapper talked about hating everything concerning his opponent, which is quite similar to what Kendrick said to Drake on “Euphoria.”

“I hate the way that you walk, the way that you talk, I hate the way that you dress / Surprised you wanted that feature request You know that we got some shit to address I even hate when you say the word “nigga,” but that’s just me, I guess,” Kendrick raps on the track.

In another clip, a battle rapper bragged about being a crip and killing his homies like YMW Melly, which is a bit similar to Kendrick rapping that he’s down to go the Melly route against Drake and Cole.

“Yeah, Cole and Aubrey know I’m selfish/ The crown is heavy I pray they my real friends/ But if not, I’m YNW Melly,” Kungfu Kenny raps on the track.

Fans are now debating if Kendrick indeed stole the lyrics or it’s just a reach. “Stealing bars worse than a ghost writer,” someone commented. “OVO sweatshop really sweating for these reaches lol,” another person argued.
