Now we know that Russ(Clippers) and DeRozan(Bulls) are fans of Kendrick Lamar. In one of the biggest feuds in recent hip-hop history, Drake and Kendrick Lamar have been at odds — to the extent that police were involved following a shooting incident outside Drake’s Toronto mansion on Tuesday. But their relationship wasn’t always contentious.
Over a decade ago, the two artists collaborated on several tracks: Drake’s 2011 “Buried Alive Interlude,” Lamar’s 2012 “Poetic Justice,” and A$AP Rocky’s “F**kin’ Problems” in the same year.
Their 2024 rap feud continued for a while until Drake personally decided to end it, reportedly with the agreement of both management teams to settle the dispute for the sake of their respective artists.
