paragraph_text: "First Person Shooter" and "Like That"
  
  In October 2023, J. Cole featured on Drake's track " First Person Shooter ", a single from his album For All the Dogs. Cole suggested that he, Drake, and Lamar were part of the "Big Three" greatest rappers in modern hip-hop, and suggested that he was currently the best of the three. The song became a smash hit, topping the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
  
  Five months later, Lamar responded directly to the track and the "Big Three" notion in a feature on Metro Boomin and Future 's song, " Like That " from their album We Don't Trust You. Lamar dissed both Cole and Drake, saying "motherfuck the big three, nigga, it's just big me". Other tracks on We Don't Trust You were interpreted as also containing lyrical shots at Drake, with some fans speculating that the featured artists on the album were chosen for their known animosity towards Drake.
  
  Lamar's diss prompted Cole to release a response song, " 7 Minute Drill ", in which he criticizes To Pimp a Butterfly. In the days after, he publicly apologized onstage for releasing the song and removed it from streaming services. Drake did not directly acknowledge "Like That" on tour, simply stating at one concert: "I got my head up high... and I know no matter what there's not another nigga on this Earth that could ever fuck with me". On April 12, Metro Boomin and Future would release a second collaborative album entitled We Still Don't Trust You, featuring more shots towards Drake.
