In the world of celebrities, allegiances can change fast. Enter the drama involving LeBron James, Kendrick Lamar, and Drake.
- LeBron James has shown unwavering support for Kendrick Lamar while Drake takes verbal jabs at him.
- The basketball legend posted a video praising Kendrick’s upcoming Super Bowl halftime show with fervor.
- Drake altered his song lyrics during a concert, seemingly targeting LeBron, upping the ante.
- Despite the tension, LeBron quietly extends a peace offering, donning sneakers from Drake’s line.
LeBron James has picked his side. The basketball icon recently showed his clear support for Kendrick Lamar, especially in the face of some lyrical jabs from Drake. LeBron took to Instagram, sharing a clip from Kendrick’s earlier Super Bowl gig with a caption that had fans buzzing. His words? He confidently predicted Kendrick would ‘kill it’ at his upcoming performance, adding a playful ‘Bart Scott voice’ to it.
The backdrop to this? A bit of beef between Drake and LeBron. The two were once close, but things turned a bit icy after Drake’s tour in Australia. During a concert, Drake switched up some lyrics of his song ‘Nonstop,’ seemingly taking a dig at LeBron. Instead of his 2018 shout-out, he rapped about moving up but excluded the Lakers star. LeBron didn’t respond, but actions speak louder than words. His Instagram post suggests he’s all-in for Kendrick.
Drake hasn’t been shy about his discontent. On another track, ‘Fighting Irish Freestyle,’ he seems to vent about LeBron’s public support for Kendrick. The song could reference a time when LeBron appeared at a Kendrick concert, adding to the drama. LeBron, however, hasn’t engaged directly, maintaining his focus on Kendrick.
It’s not all cold shoulders, though. Last summer, LeBron tried to cool things down by showing off Drake’s sneakers in an Instagram Story. Yet, with recent developments, it looks like the lines are clearly drawn in the sand.
This ongoing drama between LeBron, Kendrick, and Drake keeps fans on their toes.
