On April 30, Debayby just made waves claiming he's right up there in Raps Elite tier, basically inserting himself into the whole big three debate. He drops this around the 10-minute mark in a recent video clip, acting like the conversation needs his name in the mix. This all kicked off last year when Jay Cole shouted out himself, Drake, and Kendrick Lamar, as the top three on his track, First Person Shooter. That line lit a fuse in the rap world, turning friendly nods into full-on rivalry talk. Kendrick Lamar quickly pushed back on future and metro boomers like that, making it clear he sees himself as number one and ain't sharing any crowns. Fans aided up, and the energy shifted fast from debate to straight beef. Jay Cole tried responding with his own track called Seven Minute Drill, but he pulled back soon after, apologizing on stage at the Dreamville Festival, and stepping out of the ring entirely. That left Drake and Kendrick trading heavy bars and one of the biggest rap clashes we've seen lately. The baby's bold move now keeps that fire flickering, reminding everyone the throne talk

and hip hop never really quides down.
