Andrew Schulz isn’t backing down from his ongoing feud with Kendrick Lamar, continuing to call out the Compton rapper for allegedly dissing him on the track “Wacced Out Murals.”
Appearing on SiriusXM’s The Sam Roberts Show on Wednesday (April 9), the comedian accused Kendrick’s fanbase of sending threats to him and his friends. He also labeled the rapper a hypocrite for working with South Park co-creator Trey Parker on the upcoming film Whitney Springs, despite previously criticizing others for crossing lines in comedy.
“Did I find it hypocritical that he’s doing a movie with the South Park guys and they’ve got Lizzo jokes and all this other sh*t? Like yes, he’s being hypocritical,” Schulz said. “He was doing something for clicks.”
“It Was About Me” — Schulz Confirms Kendrick’s Diss
Schulz went on to explain that he initially didn’t respond to Kendrick’s lyrics, assuming the diss wasn’t aimed at him.
“It’s the most ego thing in the world to think it must be about me,” Schulz said. “I didn’t react for two weeks. Then I got confirmation.”
According to Schulz, Kendrick’s team allegedly reached out to clarify that a specific line from the song was aimed at him.
“His team reached out to somebody like, ‘Yo, we weren’t talking about you guys with that line about the killing sh*t, but it was about Schulz with this thing.’ So I’m like, ‘OK, you open your mouth, you say this thing about telling your fans to kill my friends—you get whatever’s coming to you and you f**king enjoy it.’”
Racism Accusations? Schulz Denies Claims Over Controversial Comment
Schulz also addressed the backlash surrounding a previous comment he made about “making love” to Kendrick Lamar, which some interpreted as racially insensitive.
“People tried to make it racism so fast, too. That was the most surprising thing,” Schulz said. “They were like, ‘This is racism. This comes from a history of slave owners having sex with their slaves.’ I was like, ‘What the f**k is going on here?’”
Peter Rosenberg, HOT97 Slam Schulz’s Response
The comedian’s remarks didn’t sit well with HOT97’s Peter Rosenberg, who criticized Schulz’s response on social media.
“Kendrick calls out Schulz for running down Black women… more specifically the dudes who let it happen unchecked,” Rosenberg tweeted. “Schulz responds by saying, ‘Oh, ‘cause rappers are so pro-women?’”
“Schulz is no different than Bill O’Reilly. Acting like K Dot is 2 Live Crew. It’s a nonsensical response and shows Schulz doesn’t actually like or understand hip-hop… Not all white guys are built the same. For some of us, Black culture is not wacky fodder or a means to an end.”
Kendrick’s Hollywood Moves Raise Eyebrows
The controversy also shines a light on Kendrick’s recent collaboration with South Park creators on Whitney Springs, a dark comedy expected to explore race and identity. Fans and critics alike are now questioning whether his actions align with the messages in his music.
