Pusha T recently spoke about Kendrick Lamar name-dropping him on his diss track ‘Euphoria’ in a new interview.
While speaking with Vulture, Pusha T and his brother No Malice reacted to the Virginia rapper being mentioned in K Dot’s song. “Before you go, I have to ask about a lyric,” music reporter Craig Jenkins said, before reciting the lyrics.

Pusha replied, “Incredible. Incredible display. Incredible display of battle raps. Listen man, Kendrick …” Before Push could finish his sentence, No Malice spoke over him, saying Kendrick’s verse was “a master class” in rapping.
Pusha T and Drake have a long-standing feud that dates back to the mid-2000s, originating from Pusha T’s issues with Lil Wayne. The beef escalated over the years, with both sides trading subtle shots on tracks like “Exodus 23:1” and “Tuscan Leather”. However, things reached a boiling point in 2018 when Pusha T released the devastating diss track “The Story of Adidon”, exposing Drake’s hidden son and significantly damaging his reputation.
Given their intense history and Pusha T’s consistent refusal to bury the hatchet, his reaction to Kendrick Lamar’s reference on “Euphoria” is unsurprising, solidifying the ongoing tension between Pusha T and Drake.
