Questlove, the Roots drummer and hip hop elder statesman, is very disappointed in Drake, Kendrick Lamar, and rap in general: 'Hip hop is truly dead'
The Roots drummer and hip hop elder statesman weighed in on the war of words between the two biggest rappers in the game.Questlove took to Instagram to vent his disappointment at the ongoing feud, which produced a series of withering, downright volatile diss tracks over the last few days.. “This wasn’t about skill. This was a wrestling match level mudslinging and takedown by any means necessary — women & children be damned.
Later that day, Drake quickly responded with "Family Matters," taking shots at Lamar's relationship with his fiancé Whitney Alford, claiming the Compton native is a domestic abuser and that one of his kids isn't his. While many fans have been eating up the drama, Questlove is dismayed by the collateral damage to the rappers' innocent bystanders.“Same audience wanting blood will soon put up ‘RIP’ posts like they weren’t part of the problem,” he added. “Hip hop truly is dead.”
