Stevie Wonder isn’t entertained by Drake and Kendrick Lamar beef — all war gets a thumbs down in his book … including real-world ones, which he says are more important.
The music maestro spoke with TMZ Hip Hop Friday about his thoughts on the feud between Drizzy and K.Dot … — and while their respective diss songs may have racked up colossal numbers — Stevie flat-out calls their battle a distraction to real problems going on right now.
Specifically, SW points to actual wars that are unfolding around the globe — and while he doesn’t pinpoint a specific one … it seems pretty clear he’s referring to Israel-Gaza.
Of course, he may also be referring to the conflict in Eastern Europe between Ukraine and Russia — which is still raging on.
Stevie tells us he thinks people should be more invested in these issues — among others, like homelessness in the country. We asked Stevie if this was detrimental to hip hop culture … but it sounds like he thinks it’s not good for anybody — and that there’s bigger fish to fry.
We also asked SW if he had a message to Kendrick and Drake specifically, and he does … it’s a straightforward message of peace.
It sounds like the dust is settling on the beef … and Stevie clearly hopes it stays that way.
