Drake was deeply upset after discovering that his longtime friend and NBA star LeBron James was enthusiastically singing along to Kendrick Lamar’s diss track aimed at him during Kendrick’s star-studded concert, The Pop Out – Ken & Friends, at Los Angeles’ Kia Forum. The incident has reportedly spurred Drake to plan a retaliatory diss track on his nearly-completed album, intending to reignite their feud.

An insider close to Drake revealed to DailyMail.com that he felt betrayed by LeBron’s presence at Kendrick’s concert, especially seeing him engage with the controversial track from home. Despite their past camaraderie, Drake intends to address the situation directly in his upcoming album.

Drake and LeBron have shared a friendly relationship for years, marked by public displays of support and collaboration in various ventures, including co-producing a documentary and investing in sports and entertainment projects. However, Kendrick and Drake have been embroiled in a bitter rivalry for a long time, with Kendrick’s recent performance of Not Like Us multiple times at the concert adding fuel to the fire.

Kendrick’s lyrics in Not Like Us included provocative allegations against Drake and his associates, escalating tensions between the two rap giants. The feud intensified further when Kendrick referenced Drake’s acquisition of Tupac Shakur’s ring in a recent performance, suggesting ongoing animosity in the hip-hop community.
