In "What Did I Miss?," Drake reflects on his ongoing conflict with Kendrick Lamar and examines the loyalty of friends amidst the feud. He opens the song questioning the surprise of his situation, addressing the betrayal he feels from those who once stood by him. Drake also references a concert where Lamar taunted him, pointing out former collaborations and the shifting alliances within their circle. The track is a rare solo release from Drake, embodying his thoughts on loyalty and betrayal during the disputes with fellow artists.
Drake opens "What Did I Miss?" by reflecting on the beef and the way it affected those around him: "Askin' me, 'How did it feel?' Can't say it didn't surprise me/Last time I looked to my right, you n****s was standing beside me/How can some people I love hang around pussies who try me?"
In his second verse, Drake references Kendrick Lamar's massive Drake-taunting Pop Out concert, in Inglewood, California, that featured performances and appearances from former Drake collaborators, such as YG, Mustard, and Ty Dolla $ign. "I saw bro went to Pop Out with them, but been dick-riding gang since 'Headlines,'" he raps.
The beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar was reignited when Lamar took some subtle shots at Drake on Future and Metro Boomin's "Like That." Importantly, Future and Metro Boomin were both, at one point in time, prominent Drake collaborators, and their turn against the Canadian artist led to other former friends taking sides in the feud.
"What Did I Miss?" is a rare solo single from Drake, since he shared his suite of anti-Lamar tracks in 2024. The new song is released via Drake's OVO Sound.
