Drake recently attended Michael Rubin’s annual Fourth of July White Party in the Hamptons, where he mingled with a celebrity crowd that included Lil Wayne, Tom Brady, Travis Scott, Megan Thee Stallion, Kim Kardashian, and Jake Paul. At the event, Drake was spotted chatting with GloRilla and later took the stage with Lil Baby to perform hits like “Sticky” and “Wants and Needs.” A photo from the party was posted by Rubin on Instagram. It sparked jokes about Drake’s appearance. Many fans mocked his noticeable aging.
Meanwhile, Kendrick Lamar added fuel to the fire. He released the video for his diss track “Not Like Us” on the same day. The video includes subtle digs at Drake, which fans also mocked him for. It features symbolic references such as Kendrick smashing an owl-shaped piñata, which nods to Drake’s OVO branding. Kendrick also confronts an owl confined in a cage in the video. The video was directed in part by Kendrick’s longtime manager Dave Free. It also features Kendrick and his family, hinting at personal aspects of their ongoing rivalry.
As Kendrick’s video gained traction, fans and critics speculated on the deeper meanings behind the imagery. Each scene was interpreted as a calculated move in the ongoing feud between the two rap giants.
