As everyone celebrates the success Kendrick Lamar has had over the past couple of weeks, theyโve also noticed some weird behavior from his rival, Drake. Instead of attacking the man who called him a โcertified pedophileโ on a diss track, the Toronto rapper is going after women.
Suggested Reading
On Tuesday, in response to Serena Williamsโ shocking appearance at Lamarโs Super Bowl halftime show, Drake couldnโt help but be petty and post a photo of him with Williamsโ former agent, Jill Smoller, on his โFinstaโ (fake instagram) account.
This is just one instance of Drake ignoring the real person he has problems with and attacking the women involved.
His petty behavior continued on Wednesday when he posted a picture of Sofia Richie Grange. Why does this matter? Sheโs the daughter-in-law to Lucian Grange, CEO of Universal Music Group.
Last month, he filed a defamation lawsuit against UMG accusing them of using the popularity of โNot Like Usโ to launch a smear campaign against him, hoping that it would devalue his music which would in turn, give them leverage in future contract negotiations.
After these two recent posts, several people on social media have called out the 6-Godโs weird behavior, and have criticized him for using women to poke fun at the men he actually has a problem with.
One person wrote on X, โIdk...a man looked dead in the camera and said, โsay drake I hear you like em young โ, and the whole stadium yelled a-minorrrrrrrrrr but his response is directed at a woman?โ
Another user added, โDrake dissed Serena Williams and her husband. So she Crip-walked on his grave. Yโall never have smoke for the dude going around attacking women.โ
This behavior shouldnโt shock anyone who has followed Drakeโs career. Just last year, as his beef with K. Dot was heating up, heโs the one who claimed that Lamar beat his fiancรฉ, Whitney Alford, and claimed that his manager, Dave Free, fathered one of his children.
In his beef with Pusha T, Drake was the first one who brought up the Virginia rapperโs fiancรฉ (now wife), Virginia Williams.
Even in his feud with Meek Mill, he brought up Nicki Minaj, who Meek was dating at the time. Itโs just who Drake is: Instead of having smoke for the people who are actually attacking him, he goes after the people who havenโt said anything about him, and in most cases, they turn out to be women.
