Big Sean says Kendrick Lamar apologized to him for 'Element' diss track leak
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Rappers Big Sean and Kendrick Lamar don’t have any hard feelings for each other.
The ‘Beware’ crooner shared with Charlamagne tha God during an interview that things are all good between the two musicians.
What did Kendrick Lamar say about leaked diss 'Element' track?
Big Sean referred to an April 2019 leak of an early version of Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Damn’ track ‘Element.’
Though the lines were dropped from the song's final version, in the full diss, which surfaced online later, Lamar rapped: "Big Sean keeps sneak dissing, I let it slide / I think his false confidence got him inspired / I can't make them respect you, baby, it's not my job / You're Finally Famous for who you date, not how you rhyme."
Talking about their beef, which Lamar and Sean ended years ago, the ‘Bounce Back’ rapper said, "The thing is, that some came out and he changed that bar, right? So that wasn't on the song anymore, it was a leaked verse."
"So I had to keep that in mind because I was pissed when I heard it. So then I'm like, 'OK, he changed that on his own, so he probably came to the conclusion that it was nothing. So then, me and him talked. And I got the texts in my phone," Sean added.
Big Sean shows Kendrick Lamar's apology text on 'Element' leak
Without revealing the exact words, Big Sean showed the 2019 text exchange to the host, "He apologized in a sense for going that far, for that s--- coming out, right... So, if Kendrick apologized for that same leak that I heard prematurely that he didn't use, it's like, then it leaks fully later and people hear it and we already discussed it," Sean said of the leaked full song, reports RapUp.
He further said that he had addressed it on track 'Deep Reverence' featuring the late Nipsey Hussle. "When that s--- leaks people are like, 'Ah, you heard what he said about you?' I'm like, 'N----, I'm not a clout-chasing-ass n----, bro," Sean said.
"I'm solid and I stand on mine and I'm not bout' to do something because everyone thinks a certain thing. We already talked about it, I already got an apology for it... That's what it's been. I ain't really have too much communication with him since then," Sean said, adding that there was "not" any "real smoke" between the two rappers over the 'Element' mix up," he continued.
