Drake quotes Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” in response to a viral video.
The Champagne Papi shared a video via his Instagram Story of a clip of a Drake lookalike performing “Hotline Bling.”
“Sometimes you gotta pop out…” Drake captioned the video. That quote, of course, is an infamous line from a diss song aimed at him. On “Not Like Us” Kendrick Lamar raps, “Sometimes you gotta pop out and show niggas/ Certified boogeyman, I’m the one that up the score with ’em/ Walk him/ down, whole time I know he got some hoe in him/ Pole on him, extort shit, bully, Death Row on him..”
Drake clearly is making light of the situation. We previously reported that his friend and collaborator Gordo dropped a new alum, Diamante, on Friday (July 26). Drake is featured on one of the tracks. While discussing the project with PEOPLE, Gordo also briefly dived into Drake’s beef with Lamar.
“He’s been past it,” Gordo said. “The thing is that he was just on the longest tour ever. He literally did a tour for like a year. I think he’s just chilling.”
He continued: “Ever since all this has happened… I’ve seen him happier,” the producer shared. “It’s really weird. He’s pretty jolly… The internet makes it seem like, ‘Oh, that photo, he’s all sad and sh*t.’”
“That’s just a bad photo from a bad camera. But because it’s him, it’s put under a magnifying glass like, ‘Oh, look at his eyes. He’s looking a little droopy. He hasn’t slept.’ But the guy’s been happy as shit, to be honest. He’s chilling.”
