AL Green Responds To Kendrick Lamar Sampling Him On ‘6:16 IN LA’ Drake Diss

Al Green is sampled in Kendrick Lamar‘s newest diss to Drake, “6:16 In LA,” and it garnered a response from the legend himself. Released in the early hours of Friday (May 3), the Sounwave and Jack Antonoff-produced track samples Green’s 1972 classic, “What a Wonderful Thing Love Is.”

Though he kept it simple in his post, Green shared the original song to his Twitter/X page shortly after K. Dot dropped “6:16 In LA.”

Just days after releasing the explosive “Euphoria,” Kendrick Lamar dropped “6:16 in LA” — a play on Drake’s timestamp song series — on his Instagram page on Friday (May 3).

Rapping over the aforementioned Al Green sample, K. Dot fires off another barrage of shots at the 6 God, claiming that there are Judases among his disciples.

“Conspiracies about cash, dawg, that’s not even the leak/ Find the jewels like Kash Doll, I just need you to think/ Are you finally ready to play ‘Have you ever?’ let’s see/ Have you ever thought that OVO is working for me?” he raps, responding to Drake’s claim on “Push Ups” that he was being extorted by his former label boss Anthony “Top Dawg” Tiffith.

“Fake bully, I hate bullies, you must be a terrible person/ Everyone inside your team is whispering that you deserve it/ Can’t Toosie Slide up out of this one, it’s just gonna resurface/ Every dog gotta have his day, now live in your purpose.”

Kendrick also accuses Drake of “harassing” people within his camp and trying to dig up dirt on him.

“It was fun until you started to put money in the streets/ They lost money ’cause they came back with no receipts/ I’m sorry that I live a boring life, I love peace/ But war ready if the world is ready to see you bleed,” he spits.

“The Elohim, K. T. W. know you can’t sleep/ These images trouble you, know the wires in your circle should puzzle you/ If you were street smart then you woulda caught that your entourage is only to hustle you.”

Kendrick even takes aim at Akademiks, who is not only a vocal Drake supporter but has served as the Toronto rapper’s unofficial mouthpiece throughout the feud.
