Kendrick Lamar, Drake and Rick Ross have been urged by Marlon Wayans to follow J. Cole‘s lead and make peace in their beef.
Reacting to the viral video of Rozay getting jumped by fans of Drizzy in Vancouver for playing Kendrick’s diss song “Not Like Us,” the actor and comedian bemoaned the ongoing feud.
Posting on Instagram, Wayans explained his stance by writing: “Dear Hip Hop. It’s all fun and games until people start getting hurt. Remember this, HISTORY REPEATS ITSELF! I knew Tupac, I knew Biggie. I partied with them, hung out with them, saw them both 20 minutes before they got shot.
“Violence is real. Everyone can be touched. Don’t entertain the devil. I love @champagnepapi love @richforever love @kendricklamar love @losangelesconfidentinal [The Game] and I say to all my brothers there’s enough for everyone to eat.”

Wayans continued by referencing Cole peacefully backing out of his feud and apologizing to Kendrick Lamar for dissing him on “7 Minute Drill.”
“Y’all all need to what @realcolworld did. With peace, with love, with positivity,” he wrote. “Life is short… even shorter if you spend your energy on breaking each other down instead of building each other up. Hate seeing any of our kings at war. We are too few. STOP! And I say this with love. Always OG MW.”
Childish Gambino also recently criticized Kendrick and Drake’s feud, claiming that it reflects a concerning trend in contemporary society.
“I feel like there’s just people not having enough fun […] When I was a kid, there were big things that would unite us, and I just feel bad for y’all. This generation just does not get — y’all get, like, bad stuff. Everything that everybody can get in on is usually fucked up,” he said while addressing fans on TikTok Live.
“Even this year, the most fun we’ve had was from a fight. A song from a fight, from a rap beef,” he continued, referencing Kendrick’s chart-topping diss song “Not Like Us.” “Which I enjoyed every minute of. It was very fun. But still, kinda negative in a certain light, I guess.”
Questlove also slammed the feud by writing on Instagram: “Nobody won the war. This wasn’t about skill. This was a wrestling match level mudslinging and takedown by any means necessary — women & children (& actual facts) be damned.
“Same audience wanting blood will soon put up ‘rip’ posts like they weren’t part of the problem. Hip Hop truly is dead.”
