Kendrick Lamar turned heads at the 2025 Grammys in Los Angeles, sparking fan theories about his denim ensemble aimed at his rival Drake.

Kendrick Lamar showed up at the Grammy Awards in Los Angeles wearing a denim jacket, jeans, and a diamond Jesus piece chain, a choice that some fans think wasn’t just a fashion statement. Known as a ‘Canadian tuxedo,’ this look caused quite a stir on social media platforms, where many speculated it was meant to jab at Canadian rapper Drake.

One fan expressed, ‘Damn, this is comedy. Kendrick’s Trolling is ELITE,’ while another added, ‘Kendrick winning both song of the year and record of the year, off a rap beef win, a week ahead of a Super Bowl performance…while wearing a Canadian tuxedo. Idk if we’ll ever witness anything like this ever again lol.’

Fellow rapper JPEGMAFIA even chimed in with a tweet, saying, ‘LMFAO Kendrick is funny AF. He accepted his award for the greatest diss song of all time. in a CANADIAN TUXEDO.’ The night seemed to be a comedy show of sorts for fans witnessing the trolling unfold live.

On a more serious note, it was an unforgettable night for Kendrick as his song ‘Not Like Us’ earned awards for Song of the Year and Record of the Year, among others. These victories made history as he became the first artist to win a Grammy for a diss track, joining the likes of Childish Gambino who achieved a similar feat.

During his acceptance speech, Lamar paid homage to West Coast rap icons who inspired him, saying, ‘Nothing more powerful than rap music, I don’t care what it is. We are the culture, it’s gon’ always stay here and live forever.’ He also dedicated one of his wins to his late auntie and the city of Los Angeles, which was recently hit by wildfires.

Adding to Drake’s possible dismay, celebrities like Beyoncé and Taylor Swift were seen dancing along to Kendrick’s winning track during the ceremony. Kendrick is set to make more history as he prepares to headline the Super Bowl halftime show in New Orleans, marking another milestone in his illustrious career.

Kendrick Lamar’s bold fashion choice at the Grammys added fuel to his rivalry with Drake while capturing a monumental moment in his career.
