Snoop Dogg says he apologized to Kendrick Lamar after posting Drake’s diss track

Lamar had referenced Snoop Dogg posting about Drake’s diss track on his latest album, ‘GNX’. Back in April, Drake released the song “Taylor Made Freestyle” during the height of his feud with fellow rapper Lamar. The song included AI-generated vocals imitating both Snoop Dogg and the late Tupac Shakur. Snoop Dogg then posted the song on his Instagram Stories shortly after it was released.
When Lamar released his latest album GNX in November, he referenced the incident on his track “wacced out murals,” rapping: “Snoop posted ‘Taylor Made’ / I prayed it was the edibles / I couldn’t believe it, it was only right for me to let it go.”.
“He’s a rapper, man. He’s supposed to speak his mind and tell his truth. That’s the way he felt. You know what I’m saying? He has the right to say that,” he continued. “I’m his big homeboy, so I have to take what’s given to me from his perspective because he’s speaking truth. And the truth shouldn’t hurt you. It should make you better.”.
Snoop Dogg then claimed he had initially posted the song by mistake, saying: “What happened was, I did a collaborative post with someone [on Instagram]. So when I post it, I’m thinking I’m posting ‘Gin and Juice.’. “I don’t know what song this is. I’m not hip to everybody’s music. Then I get the word, ‘Nephew didn’t like what you did,’” Snoop Dogg recalled, as he remembered asking: “What did I do?”.
