In addition to losing a rap battle against Kendrick Lamar, on Monday, one Drake’s other worst nightmares came true...and it’s all thanks to Charlamagne tha God. I’ll explain.
You see, on Monday morning’s episode of “The Breakfast Club,” the popular radio host and personality reignited talks of the Canadian rapper and the petitions he filed against his label UMG on Nov. 26 (and Lamar by extension) for conspiring to conflate streaming numbers and defamation for Lamar’s summer hit/diss track “Not Like Us.”

When the news broke out that he filed, Drake was swiftly met with online backlash, with many coining it a “Karen move” since he essentially involved lawyers in a simple rap beef. Now, that move has earned him Charlamagne’s infamous “Donkey of the Day” designation.
“He’s a hoe,” Charlamagne said plainly. “This just lets me know Drake don’t understand culture. Because ‘Not Like Us’ is a cultural phenomenon and it’s very rare air for a song to become what ‘Not Like Us’ has become. It is a cultural identifier for a whole coast. One day, California is going to change their state motto to ‘Not Like Us.’ Guaranteed.”
He continued:
“I told y’all Drake was going to file a lawsuit. I told you Drake was going to sue. He is a multi-billion dollar entity, no multi-billion dollar entity is going to allow you to call him a pedophile or sex offender and not take some sort of legal action. But here’s the thing, the person who has the real defamation case in this situation is Kendrick’s woman [Whitney Alford], because Drake not only said Kendrick was beating on her he said that Dave Free, Kendrick’s business partner and friend, was the real father to one of Kendrick’s kids.”
Charlamagne went on to say that if anybody should be suing for defamation, it should be Kendrick’s fiancé Alford and that Drake essentially shouldn’t be throwing stones while living in a glass house.
“If you’re going to accuse somebody of defamation, you must first make sure you too aren’t guilty of defamation,” Charlamagne said. “Drake saying that Kendrick defamed him is indeed the pot calling the kettle beige, but that’s not even why I’m giving him donkey of the day. I’m giving him donkey of the day because Drake is proving, without a shadow of a doubt, that he simply doesn’t understand culture.”
