Lil Wayne Picks a Side in the Battle Between Drake and Kendrick Lamar.

LAS VEGAS, NV – Lil Wayne seems to have made his allegiance clear in the feud between rappers Drake and Kendrick Lamar. At a performance of Drake’s 2011 collaboration “The Motto” in Las Vegas over the weekend, the Young Money founder held up his OVO chain to the crowd and appeared to rap the chorus. in Kendrick’s chart-topping diss song, “Not Like Us.”

Reaction to the gesture was quite mixed, with fans still undecided as to what Wayne’s intentions were. Some believed he was supporting his former apprentice Drizzy, while others interpreted it as a co-sign with his “Mona Lisa” partner K. Dot.

However, upon closer inspection of the footage, Weezy can be heard editing out Kendrick’s chorus and saying, “They don’t like us.”

Lil Wayne, holding an OVO owl pendant, adds verses from “Not Like Us” from “The Motto”, possibly mocking Kendrick Lamar.
Lil Wayne is actually mentioned in “Not Like Us”, when Kendrick mentions that Drake once slept with his former record label boss’s girlfriend.

“Fucked with Wayne’s sister when he was in jail, so cunning/ Then got a tattoo on his face like a bitch to apologize,” he raps.

Wayne shared this revelation in his 2016 book Gone ‘Til November: A Journal of Rikers Island, although he clarified that it happened before he and his then-girlfriend started dating.

“I woke up and still felt bad about the terrible day I had. Hell it was like that! I was used to arguing with my girlfriend [daily], but found out that she having sex with Drake is the worst thing I could find,” he wrote.

Lil Wayne shares the surprising reason he didn’t perform his collaboration “Mona Lisa” with Kendrick Lamar.

“As a man, honestly, it hurts me, and it’s not because it was Drake. It could have been any man, and it would have hurt just as much. She said that it That happened before we got together, but she never told me. When Drizzy came to see me, he said, ‘Yeah, that’s right… don’t joke with her like that because I did. have sex with her.’ Damned!”

He added: “This is the kind of nonsense a man never wants to know when he’s locked up. Or maybe it is, because God only knows what I’d do if I wasn’t locked up right away.” As soon as I found out, I told them to lock me up, and I was basically alone in the cell for the past few days […] As a man, I admit: It’s nonsense That really drove me crazy.”

Although Lil Wayne’s performance above marked the first time he’s commented on the discord, he recently supported Drake by calling him one of his favorite rappers of all time — in a the list perhaps notably does not include Kendrick Lamar.

“My top five rappers of all time are JAY-Z, Missy Elliott, Eminem, um… The Notorious BIG — well, in no particular order here — and Drizzy,” he shared on the podcast Not Just Football by NFL star Cam Heyward.
