Drake continued his ongoing beef with Kendrick Lamar on Friday night as he dropped a diss track called Family Matters.

The 37-year-old Canadian rapper's latest music offering follows 36-year-old Lamar's two songs — Euphoria and 6:16 in LA — aimed at Drake, full name Aubrey Drake Graham.

Family Matters addresses Lamar's previous shots at the former Degrassi star head-on. 

In response to Kendrick raising the subject of Drake's parenting, he raps: 'You mentioned my seed, now deal with his dad/I gotta go bad, I gotta go bad.'

The For All The Dogs music artist also name-dropped a list of the California-bred rapper's collaborators including Anthony 'Top Dawg' Tiffith, Dave Free, and Baby Keem, spitting: 'K.Dot sh*t is only hitting hard when Baby Keem put his pen to it.'

Mere minutes after Drake released his song, Kendrick fired back with Meet the Grahams, his third diss this week.

Drake continued his ongoing beef with Kendrick Lamar on Friday night as he dropped a diss track called Family Matters. The 37-year-old rapper clapped back about Lamar's previous suggestion that he has a 'hidden daughter'

Announcing the song on Instagram, Drake captioned the post, 'FAMILY MATTERS out on YouTube now. Stop trying to piece together what I know and go pick up the pieces of your broken home'

On Family Matters, a nod to the beloved 90s sitcom, Drake also took the opportunity to direct his frustrations toward other members of the hip-hop community.

He took aim at Metro Boomin with the line, 'Leland Wayne, he a f**kin' lame, so I know he had to be an influence.'

Then he turned to Future, reciting, 'Pluto sh*t make me sick to my stomach/We ain't never really been through it.'

Rick Ross was also mentioned with the bar, 'Ross callin' me the white boy, and the sh*t kinda got a ring to it/'Cause all these rappers wavin' white flags while the whole f**kin' club sing to it.'

At one point Drake turned his focus to the legal aftermath of his Taylor Made Freestyle, which was removed from social media as the result of a cease-and-desist from the late rapper 2Pac's estate: 'A cease-and-desist is for hoes/Can't listen to lies that come out of your mouth/You called the 2Pac Estate/And begged 'em to sue me and get that sh*t down.'

Bringing up a romantic relationship of Kendrick's and hinting at alleged domestic abuse by the hands of the Compton-bred rap star, Drake raps: 'They hired a crisis management team/To clean up the fact that you beat on your queen. The picture you painted ain't what it seems.'

In addition to Taylor Made Freestyle, Family Matters comes after Push Ups.

Announcing the song on Instagram, Drake captioned the post, 'FAMILY MATTERS out on YouTube now. Stop trying to piece together what I know and go pick up the pieces of your broken home.'

On his quick-witted rebuttal Meet The Grahams, Kendrick suggests Drake has a secret daughter.

'You lied about your son, you lied about your daughter, huh, you lied about them other kids that's out there hoping that you come,' go the lyrics.

In response, Drake shared a selfie to his Instagram Story and wrote, 'Nahhh hold on can someone find my hidden daughter pls and send her to me...these guys are in shambles,' with crying laughing emoji.

Elsewhere on Kendrick's recording he points to Drake's alleged battle with gambling and alcohol.

He even goes as far as suggesting there are pedophiles within Graham's OVO crew. 

'You f**ked up the minute you called out my family's name / You got gambling problems, drinking problems, pill-popping and spending problems, bad with money, whore house/ Therapy's a lovely start,' he raps.

'F**k a rap battle, this a lifelong battle with yourself,' the Recipe hitmaker spews..

Along with Friday morning's 6:16 in LA, Lamar posted a snap of a single Maybach leather glove.

The title is a play on Drake's well-known timestamp songs like 2013's 4 PM in Calabasas and 2023's 8 AM in Charlotte.

It's been revealed that Lamar tapped Taylor Swift's frequent collaborator Jack Antonoff to co-produce the diss track.

Variety first reported that Antonoff co-produced the track alongside Lamar's in-house producer Sounwave. 

Earlier this week, in response to Kendrick's song Euphoria, Drake then seemingly fired back by posting a clip from 10 Things I Hate About You.

Fans believed that Drake's humorous post was to mock Lamar's lyrics, '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, I hate the way you sneak diss, if I catch flight, it's gon' be direct.'
