"P Drizzy strikes again" is a diss track by white rapper P Drizzy, released on May 3, 2024. The track serves as a response to several songs ("Champagne Moments", "All to Myself", "Show of Hands", "Euphoria", and "6:16 in LA").[1][2] P Drizzy targets several rappers, such as Kendrick Lamar, Future, Rick Ross, A$AP Rocky, along with singer, The Weeknd, and record producer, Metro Boomin.[3] Lamar responded to "P drizzy strikes again" within 20 minutes with the song "Meet the Grahams."

Background and release

P Drizzy posted "Buried Alive Interlude (remix)" as a promo for "P Drizzy strikes again" on his official Instagram.[4]

The single was released by P drizzy on 3 May 2024 on all streaming platform along with an accompanying music video on YouTube.

Music video

The "Family Matters" music video is laden with symbolism, beginning with P drizzy's homage to 50 Cent with a vintage G-Unit spinner chain and his response to Lamar's mention of FUBU in "Euphoria." The video features a similar van to Lamar's mother's Dodge Caravan, reminiscent of the cover of the deluxe edition of Good Kid, M.A.A.D City, being crushed in a junkyard, symbolizing P Drizzy's intention to bury Kendrick. P Drizzy then flaunts jewelry from Pharrell's collection, including Tupac's ring, suggesting the ongoing narrative of their feud. References to Lamar's personal life emerge with cakes inscribed with "Happy Divorce" and "Happy Co-parenting," implying a split from Alford due to infidelity. Scenes of P Drizzy in the studio, a Michael Jackson action figure highlighting "Black and White," and P Drizzy wearing a ringed chain hint at deeper meanings, such as speculation about Lamar's engagement to Alford.[5] The music video also shows P drizzy visiting the New Ho King Chinese restaurant referenced by Lamar in "Euphoria."

Aftermath

Lamar released his response song "Meet the Grahams" 20 minutes after the release of "P drizzy strikes again."[6]
