Big Sean and Kendrick Lamar’s friendship has been up and down for the past decade or so.

They have collaborated, yet they have also secretly dissed one other on numerous times. However, according to a recent interview with Charlamagne tha God, the Detroit MC believes there was never any enmity. So when Sean heard Lamar’s leaked “ELEMENT.” verse around the time of Nipsey Hussle’s death, he was completely taken aback. To backtrack a little, the hip-hop culture first learnt about this in late 2022. Then, around a year later, the “OG” version of the DAMN. cut surfaced on the internet, stunning the rap world.

“Big Sean keep sneak dissin’, I’ll let it slide / I think his false confidence got him inspired / I can’t make them respect you baby, it’s not my job” , Lamar’s slur against Sean began. You’re finally famous for who you date, not how you rhyme (boy). Cute a** raps, get your puberty up, and then release a great record before you come at us.” He’d then wrap it up, leaving Sean with a warning. “Drake, your Meek Mill beef might got you gassed up / But I’m a whole ‘nother beast, I’d really f*** you up” . Sean then tells the Breakfast Club interviewer that he and Dot text back and forth.

They don’t read the texts aloud, but Kendrick basically apologized to him, noting how his ego was controlling his decision to write such nasty lyrics. Sean also mentioned that Lamar complimented him for the shoutout on “Deep Reverence” from Detroit 2. That track contained a late vocal from Nipsey Hussle, and Sean says his verse was recorded after his death, and they essentially reconnected around that time to work things out. Before getting off topic, the “Yes” MC wanted to address everyone who was mocking him for not reacting to Lamar. He claims that he is not a “clout-chasing-a** n****” and that there is no animosity between them. However, if he felt there was, he would be prepared to fire back.
