It’s “Over” between Drake and DeMar DeRozan.
The Canadian rapper, who was on the receiving end of a high-profile loss in a beef with Kendrick Lamar earlier this year, is still seething at the former Toronto Raptor, and he made that abundantly clear Saturday.
In a contest between the Raptors, whom Drake has an ownership stake in, and DeRozan’s Sacramento Kings, the “Certified Lover Boy” was anything but.
Drake appeared to call DeRozan a “p—y” during the game between the two sides, which the Raptors won in overtime, 131-128.
It was Vince Carter’s jersey retirement evening, and due to his memorable tenure with the franchise, DeRozan’s day may come in the future, but Drake said while being interview on the broadcast that he’ll intervene if that were to happen.
“If you ever put a DeRozan banner up ill go up there and pull it down myself … shout out to Kyle [Lowry],”. Drake said of DeRozan.
This beef stems from DeRozan — a Compton, California native — riding with Kendrick Lamar in the beef between Drake and the Nobel Prize-winning West Coast artist.
DeRozan was rapped about in Lamar’s “Not Like Us,” widely perceived to be the song of the summer and the anthem that essentially gave Lamar the win in the eyes of most observers.
“I’m glad DeRoz’ came home, y’all didn’t deserve him neither,” Kendrick rapped, indicating that Toronto wasn’t deserving of the California-birthed swingman.
DeRozan appeared in both the music video for “Not Like Us” as well as Lamar’s Juneteenth concert “The Pop Out,” which was streamed live on Amazon Prime and took place at the Kia Forum in Inglewood, California.
“Not Like Us” quickly became the No. 1 song in the country upon release on May 4, and as of this week, it’s still No. 14 on the Billboard Hot 100 after peaking at No. 1 and has spent 25 straight weeks on the charts — which is every week since release.
