Drake Vs. Everybody: Here Are All of The Stars Involved in the Rap Civil War

As the 2024 Rap Civil War wages on, Drake appears to have become a lone wolf, fighting an uphill battle against some of the genre’s brightest stars.

Though the blockbuster battle against Kendrick Lamar is the main event on the card, multiple other artists seemingly want to take a swipe at the OVO captain. And in response, Drake has framed this lyrical warfare as a ’20 V. 1′ contest, implying that he’s ready to take on multiple opponents at once. 

Lines have been drawn ever since Lamar’s scorching verse on “Like That,” featured on the Metro Boomin and Future project We Don’t Trust You and spending three weeks atop the Hot 100 chart. More opponents have rallied alongside him since then: Rick Ross, A$AP Rocky and The Weeknd have all chosen their side and aligned with Kendrick, as well as Kanye West, who previewed his scathing verse against Drake on the unofficial “Like That (Remix).” 

“[Future] called me and I went to the studio and laid that. We went through the creative process of adding the chords and called the Hooligans out in London to get on the joint,” Ye explained in an interview with Justin LaBoy over the weekend. “Everybody was very, very energized about the elimination of Drake.”

The age-old saying that idols become rivals rings loud and clear for Drizzy, as some of his heroes (like Ross and Ye) have turned their backs on him, seemingly in hopes of watching his empire crumble. Billboard has compiled a list detailing everyone involved in the Rap Civil War, and their respective roles in taking down the 6 God.
