Drake already took the heftiest L attainable all all through final yr. To make it even worse, since November, he has been showcasing his proclivity for litigiousness, and every replace solely sounds extra pathetic: “Kendrick is looking me names once more, put him in day trip!”
Drake carried that huge loser power immediately into 2025. First, he introduced that his Anita Max Win tour in Australia would kick off the identical night time as Tremendous Bowl LIX — you recognize, the one the place Kendrick Lamar lyrically beat his ass so dangerous in entrance of 133.5 million those who the tattle-telling twerp whined to his attorneys? Once more?? All we want now’s for Drake to sue the NBA for taking part in Kendrick whereas slicing to business, and Conan O’Brien for his “Not Like Us” joke at this yr’s Oscars.
As if that weren’t sufficient, Drake has frequently supported morally questionable streamers like Adin Ross, DJ Akademiks, and xQc, furthering his trajectory towards the incel manosphere. In that vein, Kai Cenat, the chief of Gen-Z influencers, revealed that Drake could be selflessly (derogatory) gifting away lots of of hundreds of {dollars} throughout a livestream scheduled for June 12 — the identical night time as Kendrick Lamar and SZA’s first Toronto cease on their Grand Nationwide tour. The stream was postponed, however clearly, Drake had each proper to be pressed: Followers from his hometown gave Okay-Dot a two-minute standing ovation after he carried out his monster diss monitor, and even requested an encore (which was not obliged). With each improvement, he proves once more that Kendrick was proper: He actually will not be like us.

As a substitute of inconspicuously mixing in and having fun with the soothing sounds of bands like FLAG and The Damned, this witless surprise boldly walked across the pageant sporting a T-shirt displaying the SS emblem adopted by Nazi Germany within the Thirties. His parade didn’t final lengthy, as a extensively circulated video confirmed different attendees responding to the person’s unabashed fascism with forceful shoves and a flurry of blows. As safety escorted Sir Lose-A-Lot off the premises, individuals could possibly be heard shouting, “No fucking Nazis!” and “Get out of our scene!” There’s an vital lesson right here: If the Nazi punks gained’t fuck off by themselves, then different punks will assist them to get the job executed.
