While Lamar didn’t directly address his ongoing feud with Drake, he did say he is fueled by the competitive nature of rap. “I think a lot of people was putting rap to the back — you didn’t see that bite anymore,” Lamar explained. “My intent was to always keep the nature of it as a sport. I love when artists grit [their] teeth.
