Justine Skye & Giveon Partake In an R&B Quarrel
Recently, there has been a brief musical feud between R&B singers Justine Skye and Giveon.
Quick run-down: Last winter, Skye took to her socials to speak on the unravellings of her relationship with Giveon.
Long story short, there were many unspoken truths that finally came to light.
Fast forward to last week, Skye released a new single titled ‘What a Lie’
“My poison was your peaches
Could’ve saved my time, should’ve taken my space
That’s what needed my attention, not your f-ckin’ face
Wish I read between the lines you were readin’ me
Such an actor, what you were after was the industry”
But as Skye sings, ‘What kind of man makes you part of their marketing plan?’ Soon after the announcement of her record, Giveon promoted his new single ‘Lie Again.’
“Lie so sweet
Until I believe
That it’s only been me
To touch you”
Considering the presented facts of the matter, it does not quite seem like Giveon’s song was necessarily about Justine. In a statement, he explains that the record “[details] the complexities of overlooking red flags to remain blissfully ignorant in the name of love.”
But as they say — timing (and in this case, wording) is everything.
What do you think about this R&B quarrel?
After dropping “Euphoria” earlier this week, Kendrick Lamar returns with his second Drake diss, “6:16 in LA.” Drawing from Drake’s signature style of titling tracks with time stamps in various cities, such as “5 am in Toronto” and “6 PM in New York,” Lamar’s latest diss track pays homage to the legendary Tupac Shakur, whose birthday falls on June 16th. This subtle nod to Tupac, on what would have been his 53rd birthday, finds Kendrick Lamar doubling down on his “hate” for Drake.

For the last few weeks, Drake has been on Kendrick Lamar‘s head since his diss on Metro Boomin and Future‘s We Don’t Trust You track, “Like That.” After Drake returned fire with two diss tracks titled, “Push Ups” and “Taylor Made Freestyle,” Kendrick Lamar returns with with a six minute diss track towards Drake titled, “Euphoria.”
“This ain’t been ’bout critics, not about gimmicks, not about who the greatest/It’s always been about love and hate, now let me say I’m the biggest hater/ I hate the way that you walk, the way that you talk/I hate the way that you dress,” Kendrick spits, referencing DMX’s 2012 interview on The Breakfast Club.
Kendrick also mentions J. Cole on the track, rapping: “Cole and Aubrey know I’m a selfish guy, the crown is heavy/I pray they my real friends, if not, I’m YNW Melly.“

Chance The Rapper quietly revealed his upcoming mixtape, “Star Line,” via Instagram. In his bio, he simply stated, “Working on my mixtape it’s called Star Line.” The project will feature collaborations with notable artists like Lil Wayne, DJ Premier, Lil Yachty, and more.
On X (formerly Twitter), Chance shared a teaser clip featuring appearances from Wayne, Preemo, Lil Yachty, Jermaine Dupri, T-Pain, Jazze Pha, and Vic Mensa. Additionally, he gave fans a sneak peek of a new track titled “Buried Alive” and polled them on whether he should drop a music video for it.
